Cut-off for receipt of entries to these drop points will be the 14th  August for both Competitons

This is only 3 months away now good luck with your entries and is you have any questions about any aspect of this pm Will or myself.

If I'm going to be there on the day I assume I can just bring my beer with me?

No, sorry but see the above posts!

All beers will be collected on the specific date (Aug 1st) from the nomiated drop points!

They can be delivered early but not later than the 1st

Both comps will use the same shared logistics

Yup I read the post and the cut off for the drop off points is the 1st August. Given that I wouldn't be using those and bringing the beer on the day the cut off doesn't apply.

Will you be available online - if not let us know? Otherwise you'll be in the same boat as everyone else ...

As per previous post, we will be in contact with you before the 18th, to arrange collection.

Collection can be when you get back after the 19th (or you can get a fellow brewer to hold on to it for you, if you wish).

"patience, grasshopper" & again reread the last post (I'm trying to keep it simple here)

"There are no set drop off points, everyone will be contacted directly on or before 18th Aug to arrive collection of your entries."

Also, remember to register with the form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1NLSNSFvgksHPf3wYPmkYOprwxJJCRr6Z8tj34VUK6gY/viewform?usp=send_form if you haven't already, thanks.

Will we arrange to get all the south Dublin bottles into one location to make things easier for the organisers? I can drop mine down to Blackrock or Ballsbridge over the weekend. Otherwise, you're welcome to drop yours up to my gaff in Kilmacud.
