I asked in the other thread, but can someone advise the Drop Point for entries? I can be out to the NC either friday evening, or any time on Saturday.

Thanks

So note to future event organisers:

Forget Sundays!!

[Pheeel]

I can judge if its easier than getting someone else? It'll mean the sheets are going to delayed but happy to help out either way

Would there be a list of the hops that were made available for the comp? I'd like to do a bit of homework before the day of judging.

The hops are listed at the start of this thread  http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,14921.0.html

Folks - I have a drop point. I am available for drops from this Thursday and from Sunday onwards.

Simply PM me, I am near Malahide Train station.

[Will_D]

Thanks to all for helping out with this.

Just to confirm that I have entries from BrianC, Fobster and my own all paid for.

Dan from the WeeCounty is going to drop their 3 entries on Sunday. I will talk to hime when I know more

Great stuff. I've updated the spreadsheet to show where bottles are located. Since you have all the Wee County entries coming to you, that just means we're left with North County to collect and all sorted. We'll get it done over the next few days. You relax!

North County - get your bottles ready and to James, Nigel or myself.

It looks like there aren't many entries from Capital, so I'll just be dropping my own to Nigel on Thursday evening.

Question. I'm entering the beer in the 20B - American Stout Category, but the hops aren't very "american" in character, the beer doesn't really fit in any other - it's a hopped up stout, it's like a Slovakian American Stout I suppose. Should I actually write something on my entry labels?

Great thanks for checking.

That's par for the course considering the nature of the hops I'd say. We know none of them are going to be American, so we'll account for it in the judging of any of the "american" styles. The american IPA's entered will have the same issues and again, we'll be looking for hallmarks of a good IPA, rather than having to have exactly the right cirtus/pine flavour that's in the guidelines.

In the end of the day, a good beer will stand out as a good beer and will come out well in the BOS.

[Dr Brown Ale]

Great reply thanks.

Sounds fair enough.

[Will_D]

Ok I know I am in the back seat now but an update:

Looks like we can have 3 tables (for 8 beers or so) (Looks like we are down 1 Louth entry and 1 Belfast)
So say 6 beers into BOS unless there's a tie for second!


Judges:
1. Molc
2. Nigel
3. Partridge
4. Pheel
5. Pob
6. Jacob

Stewards:

I will try to set up the craft bar (coolers/taps/etc).

@James: Have we got the 3 medals yet?
