Thanks to all of our very generous sponsors, all the prizes are very much appreciated.

Finally all credit to the fine, upstanding members of Wee County Brewers, a great bunch of lads!

Without further ado, the winners are as follows:

1st prize: Jonathan Leech - Flanders Red Ale (with cherry)
2nd prize: Jonathan Leech - Belgian Dark Strong Ale

Jesus Jonathan, would you leave something for the rest of us!
