That's a big prize! Given their popularity I'd imagine there will be a lot of entries. I'd guess the winning beer will be something a little left-field as well, rather than just a hoppy IPA.

Might enter for the craic anyway.

Left of field, but not too left of field for Tesco! Definitely worth a punt though.

True but I imagine it'll only make it to the larger Tesco stores that have a big craft offering anyway.

It's kind of hard to know how left field you'd have to go on this...

Nothing sour or funky anyway I'd imagine. Some kind of specialty IPA maybe? It would need some sort of a twist to stand out though, like adding some bizarre sort of fruit to secondary or something similar.

Yeah, speciality IPA or fruit/spice beer was my thinking.

He is up to his oxters building a brewpub brewery that he just got planning permission for and also on a recruitment drive to build a "super brew"club to clean up at next years nationals
