National Brewing Championships 2015

Hi guys,

Just wondering, can a newbie enter with an extract homebrew? I'll be steeping grains, but I'll not be doing all grain.

Also, if you're beer is not placed, do you get any feedback on it? Tasting sheets etc.?

[Bubbles]

Yes, to both questions!

[jackflash]

ah class. It'd be nice to know what the judges thought.

[Bubbles]

Yes, depending on the judge, you'll probably get some excellent feedback on your beer. Most judges are also experienced home brewers who can suggest practical ways to improve your beer. The feedback will be in the form of the standard BJCP scoresheet. There's an example in this thread here:
