Couple of things.
List of clubs are all US based. Suppose we just choose other and enter relevant one?
Entry page makes you select a BJCP style. I don't think you're judging against style. If that's the case will this just be ignored?

[DoubleG]

Yeah if you can select other and then type in your homebrew club name.
No you can enter a style just make sure to include the recipe/grain bill in the brewers specifics section.

From memory the list of clubs is held in a string in the code of the comp site.
This can be updated.

Entries on the website are looking pretty slim, only 2 entries added at the time of this post.

Are you guys expecting a big turn out for this? Are many of the Capital brewers entering?

[DoubleG]

Have heard of a few people brewing up some Brown brews so hopefully they are all waiting until the last minute to enter. Feel free to remind people on your local whatsapp groups and at meets.

Probably worth noting again that brewers need to include the grist quantities when entering the beer to ensure that they used the minimum amount of brown malt.

Reminder to please register your beers by Saturday the 13th of October for this competition.

[DoubleG]

Registration has been extended to this Sunday. If you have not registered an entry please do so before the 21st of October.

Apologies everyone but we have had to cancel this competition. Thanks to everyone who did take time to enter the competition.
