We need 1 - 2 Stewards; Club members who are aren't entering the competition.
Any volunteers?

Not too sure if it's kosher for non members. But I'd help out in any way if needed.

Cheers Seán

What's the story with the judging so? I wont be near a printer for the score sheets. I chance bringing my laptop as I'll have a bag for yeast transport anyway.

Sticky labels too, has anyone looked into getting them?

Enda has sheets printed already. Il bring A4 paper & scotch tape incase there is no sticky labels.

I didn't have a second entry , i had left a couple bottles of stout in for tasting and you scored it up, twas good to get it scored as well ! thanks for the feedback

+ 1 for the score sheets. Great idea for future meetings. Il print out a few flavour wheels & get them laminated for the next meet too. Well done to the top three & to Shiny for the comp structure/setup. Worked really well. Thanks to Enda & Eanna for pouring/scoring.

The barrel RIS control + barrel sample were both delish & very different. Was there much more talk of the next barrel brew after I left?

We are looking to the first weekend in November to empty the barrel. The plan for the lambic so far is to brew a beer using regular yeast and to seed the lambic yeast in the barrel

Do we need to have it brewed & ready for when we empty the barrel?

Yeah, otherwise you risk the barrel drying out.
