I think I'll be bringing a porter and a red ale of some description.

Do we have to sign up in advance or can I just bring them on the day?

I'll only have one bottle spare as it was a small batch. But could swap something else too.... saison, wee heavy, vienna lager?

To do a lager you need a fridge and unfortunately there is no space in my house for a third one :(
Was thinking about fermenting in the shed cause it's cold enough now but still don't have any idea where to lager it.

MAF is very kindly taking up an APA and a Northern Brown Ale for me!

@AxBrew how many judges do you have? Will you be using BJCP style score sheets and giving feedback?
