Will you have enough time to bottle condition the beer?

Pencil in Saturday 11th November for the judging and prize giving.

Feedback from the beers made is very good - entrants seem very happy with what was brewed on the day.  Judging will be tight  :)

More details to follow.

Sample tasted tonight  :)
How was it? On an unrelated note would any of the participants who are going to be there on the 11th of November be interested in doing a bottle swap? Idea would be bring bottles along & exchange one with each of the other teams. You then end up taking a sample of each of the beers away with you.

Will start a list. If your interested please add your name below.

1. Shanna - Hop Scotch ale - 4.3%

I'm happy with how it's turned out so far - nice balance between the malt and fresh hops.  Not too much green/chlorophyll at all.

Good idea about the bottle swap.

1. Shanna - Hop Scotch Ale - 4.3%
2. fishjam45 - Wet Hop Oatmeal Stout

Judging will take place next Saturday 11th from 12-2.30pm in the brewery.

Bring your entries on the day or if you can't get there for the judging then please contact me and we can arrange collection so your entries will get there even if you can't.

More details to follow.

Any questions? Just ask.

Good morning,

I've PM'D everyone this morning.  We are just trying to nail down who is coming on the day and if you aren't coming, more importantly, we need to get your entries collected off you to be judged this Saturday.

As we've only got this week to nail this down I'd appreciate if you could get back to me asap.

Thanks chaps.

If you're not in, you cant win  ;)
