Title: Quintessential English Ale Judges
Post by: sub82 on November 18, 2015, 02:19:26 PM
Just doing a push for judges for our competition (http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,10406.0.html)? Is anyone available/up for it? It's BJCP registered so experience points are available.

It's possible to do the return journey in a day (I did the opposite direction last year for the Nationals and Brew Con). Last train is after 9pm so plenty of time for some beers after judging!  O0

It's a 30min walk up the Ormeau road.

The plan is to start around 11:30am and finish judging mid to late afternoon.

We'll start setting things up for an as near to 11:30am start.
