Send them in to me and I will get our soon to be panel of expert judges to analyse them for you!

As most of you know I will be running a beer judging workshop over the coming months and each month I would like to have some homebrewed examples of the styles that we are tasting. We will try to get a commercial example of most styles and your beer could be judged at the same time!

This is of course a great benefit to the club (we need some qualitied judges). This will also give you a chance to be pitted up against the best beers in the world.

For the first session we will be covering BJCP Categories 1-5. So we would need your bottles before 29th June for tasting. As there will be 15-20 judges, 2 litres would be needed for everyone to have a chance of tasting your beer. And we will provide you with feedback as soon as possible.

That is a genuinely great idea. Totally symbiotic.
