Update
Capital Brewers are holding their club round for the summer session comp on Wednesday 12th at 7pm in Kavanaghs.
Bring 4 bottles (2 for judging on the night, 2 will be left in Kavanagh's if you through to the next round)
We will be using the scoresheet (attached) so no BJCP experience is required to judge the beers on the night
(http://static.squarespace.com/static/522a56b3e4b051e915f5cdd0/t/53332ca0e4b05113a3c457f9/1395862691307/?format=1000w)
Completely robbing Dave's post from last year, I've started this Thread for "Brewovision" - Capital Brewers Beer Contest to select brews for the Summer Session Beer Club Competition. Given the format of the contest, he thought Brewovision was a good name!
The beers will be decided by all at the July Club Meetup so plenty of time to get a good low ABV % brew ready. Keep about 4 bottles aside (2 for the local club meetup and 2 to represent the club! ;) )
I tweaked the month but from the original thread (http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,9885.0.html):
****************************************************************************
Capital brewers are running the annual Summer Session beer competition again this year in Dublin. It is not a BJCP categorized competition so the tag line is 'Summer Session Beers of <4%'. The beer should reflect the following - Summer in a glass. Light, refreshing, medium body, thirst quenching, balanced beer of low ABV (a lawnmower beer). Something to enjoy on those two days of summer we get every year.
- The idea is to run it at club level at the local meet ups for members only.
- Each member gets a vote as to the best beer on the night.
- Entrants can bring brew sheets to show how their beer was made, very important if sub 3%ABV or funk involvement.
- Two beers get selected at the meet up and will be sent through to a national final.
Prizes and entry fee (likely to be €5) are to be announced but it is time to get brewing.
Tips to brewing a low ABV beer -
- Be careful not to mash too low and end up with a very dry & light bodied beer.
- Use different malts to build body
- Be careful to balance hop bitterness with the lighter body.
- Attenuation of a beer like this is key so choose your yeast carefully
More details to follow but the format is going to be very similar to previous years. One difference is going to be the amount of information that the judges get about the beer. I'm hoping that they will be provided with ABV, style and yeast used to allow them to judge the beer more effectively. This is important for beers that might be sub 3% or beers with funky yeasts.

This is the thread for the capital submission for the final. The main competition thread is here (http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,9885.0.html). In theory the clubs can select their beers as late as they want as long as they are in time for the final. This thread is for the capital brewers submission. Final will be held on August 15th.
Fixed above, loads of text was missing do to me making a balls of the url link.

If you mean this: http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,9885.0.html (http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,9885.0.html) then there is no mention of dates that I can see.
Sorry to be pedantic about this but NCBrewers are raring to get brewing for this but as we are NOTORIOUS for being late Enterers we do need to know the chronology!
So as long as we have judged in July ( ie 2nd of August >:D) and we get the bottles somewhere somehow we are good to go!

Yeah we don't have all the details yet as I felt it was more important to actually announce it than have every detail sorted at the very start.
As it stands I already have August 15th in the title and based on previous years I figured clubs would know what it took to get the beers to us before that. Clubs close to Dublin wont have any problems here, its the likes of cork, galway and belfast might have to do some more planning.

Its always a concern to be honest. Its made even more difficult by the fact that you are trying to get though your club round first so you don't want a green beer there either. Everyone is in the same boat pretty much.

We haven't told them to expect dropoffs for Wednesday but they have taken them before for other comps. Given that we will be in later to judge them it should be fine to drop them in. Just label them clearly.

so we have an idea of how many will be there put down if you have entries or if you are coming to help judge
also if you cant make it and have an entry put down where you are and someone near by should be able to get it off you
beerfly - 1 entry

Also I have a load of Dark Crystal Malt that I am not going to use anytime soon. It's over a year old but it tastes fine to me, still very crisp. It's been kept indoors at all times and the sack has been sealed. I bought 25kg, what was I thinking? If anyone wants any amount let me know and I can bring it along.

I probably won't be able to make it after all, so I'll going to drop the beer in this afternoon. I'll see if I can come along later, but it's unlikely, so I'm taking myself off the "will judge and help out" list.

Shiny - no entry, (going to be late as I have to attend a mandatory TOG EGM)
Markc - no entry, will judge, steward or what have you

Great turn out for the Capital Brewer's club round of the Summer Session Beer comp. in Kavanaghs last night. Well done to everyone for taking part.
Big thanks to Ronan, Brian and Shane for the organisation and hard work on the evening, I think everyone appreciated how smoothly the judging went - 13 beers in an hour and a half - great job guys!

Does anybody know who made the second beer on the night? It was a pale ale. I thought it was really tasty, would love to see the hop profile if possible?

I'm not sure if it came second Ronan but it was definitely the second beer that we tasted on the night.

Ah the second one we tasted was mine :) I was pleased with the hop flavour alright, just the body came out too thin. I'd prob leave the rye out next time. Have attached the recipe sheet for you!
