Hi there,
Here for discussion at the Boro on Tuesday is a set of guidlines for this competition:
Open to any paid up member of the NHC
2 500 ml plain bottles (crown or swing top). Only one entry allowed!
Entry Fee: €5
Prizes: TBA
The beer can be any style and may be brewed with any Malt/yeast/adjucts but must use GeBs Slovenian hops. Bittering hops like Magnum, Northern Brewer may be used but must be disclosed on the entry form
The competion will be BJCP registered and you must declare the style of beer you have made (following Bjcp 2015 style guides). Beers will be judged to style [ and also on the hop notes (not sure about this) ]
Judging flights etc will be decided when we know what categories are being entered.
You may buy more Slovenian Hops from Geb if you want to but this should also be declared on the entry.
As these hops have been provided for free then a review during and soon after brewing will be appreciated by GeB and the NHC but is not a requirement to enter the competition
Date and Location: Old Boro, Swords Saturday May 28th

So what else do we need to agree on and divvy up the work? I put together a rough list:
- Announcement
- Registration site
- Prizes
- Bottle sorting
- Process for sending scoresheets
- List of warm bodies (judges, stewards, registrar)

Guessing we can make a simple registration site through google sheets. The lads in GCB probably have a template from the comp last year that we can use.
Also, register with BJCP so the judges get points?

*THIS IS NOT THE ENTRY PAGE FOR THE COMPETITION*
Just in case people pop in real entries and wonder what happened when we grease the database :)
Testing for the registration form. It's the first draft but should be feature complete. Go nuts and let me know if there are any issues: http://goo.gl/forms/a5qNHMNPf8

I lifted it from the GCB comp last year, as they seemed to do a good job. It's full members only, so I don't see why we have to leave Beoir members out of it...

Couple more things about the form :)
1. It should only be one entry. Currently allows 3
2. I'm confused about the name is it JEBB or GEB?
3. Want to put in some details about it being okay to use other hops for bittering

1. I'll change to 1 entry - that makes it a hell of a lot easier as well.
2. Ask Will!
3. Sure. I think Will might be coming up with some official text for all of this. We'll chat about it on Tuesday in Fowlers anyway; this was more to get the infrastructure in place and proven.
EDIT: Made the changes for now.

Had a thought lads, will the judges be given descriptions of a few varieties of Slovenian hops?
I.e. if I enter an American IPA brewed with Slovenian hops will the judges know what characteristics the hops are likely to give compared to the American hops that should be present?

No!
The Judges will just be presented with the beer and a Cat/Sub Cat.
The hops are disclosed by the brewers to the comp. database for when the results are announced but the Judges are blind to the hops used.
