Hi Stuart,

I'm planning a couple. It'll be nice to earn a few medals for our little branch of the NHC. I think it's easier to get beers (and cider) sent down as a group than as a series of individuals, so there's benefit there too.

Same here, planning on at least one entry. A meetup prior would be useful.

The competing entry dates open on the 1st and closing is 29th but there is a limited amount of places  and although the rules for the club cup seem as yet to be finalised it is another insentive for us as a club to get a collective heads together. I think the earlier the better, all things considered!?

I should have 2 or 3 entries as well. Could get a meeting near the end of January. I'll collect the bottles too sure.

I'll stick in two or three myself, I think.

Does Thursday 25th suit?

I see Maiden City got a Gold and a Bronze, congratulations to the brewers (or brewer?)

Any bottles left for our next meet? I wouldn't mind a sample  ;)

Hi Ceedee
Im afraid ive none of the English Golden Ale left but its a beer i brew often so i`ll bring one along to one of the meetings, i did bring it to the last meeting for feed back before the championships which turned out, is a very useful excercise particularly prior to entering these competitions!

Congratulations Stuart! Wouldn't mind a look at your recipe either. Will you be entering it into the British Bitters comp in May?
