@James: Have we got the 3 medals yet?

[Partridge9]

I have the medals
I also have most of the entries
I have pencils and all the jazz.

Looking good.

[Leann ull]

me and Pob collecting you and the Prof early Sunday after dawn prayers?

[pob]

Them be, to the Gods of Infection & Off Flavour Free Beer.

I think James is collecting Nigel and Molc.

Had chat with James tonight and here are some key points:

Molc to sort out 3 flights and check with CH and just allocate entry numbers to flights.

James' entries (4 crates) delivered to Boro on Saturday.

All logistic requirements for Sunday Comp and the Craft gig will be in my Renault ( like plastic cups, pencils paper, beer cooler, gas and taps etc ) and parked up overnight in the Boro.

For the craft gig if any one wants to drop a corny off, Saturday is the day to do it!

[molc]

Yup James is picking Nigel and myself at 9am and we'll get on site, get the bottles labeled quickly and into order, then get the flights going.

It may be possible to get the labels and picking sheets done in advance of Saturday for James, as he has all the bottles.

[Will_D]

CH is bringing 3 entries on the day as well as POB's (and even POB himself)

We can get the bulk done on Saturday. By my reckonning we have 19 entries!

One of the feedback from many of the judges regarding the hops is they are much more suitable for english bitters, ESB's and IPA's rather than American. There was a big hit of orange and lemon off a lot of the beers. Where the beer also had an english malt bill balance, they would have been cracking in that style rather than American.

If I was going to do an english beer, I'd def pick up some wolf, maybe cardinal or eureka, possibly with a light hand, as they seem to be quite potent.

Would have to agree with what Colm said. There was a lot of entries to the American pale ale cat that really were more English. We could have been a lot harsher with the scoring.
I also found the hops to lean towards the English ale profile then the in your face American citrusy kind.

[Leann ull]

Based on the beers I tasted American/NZ Aroma they ain't .

Now that the dust has settled on JEBB, I'm hoping that the NCBers have kept their judging hats for the Wee vs. Royal comp on August 27th. The plan is to have the judging  on site at Brú brewery with a tour of their new  65Hl setup.

[nigel_c]

Sounds good to me.

[Will_D]

Dan,

Sure we can all pitch in.

Do you want me to register it as a BJCP comp? (If I register I get the BJCP discount !!)

A registered Bjcp competition is actually about the "conduct" of the competition - its NOT about styles!

[molc]

Registering it would be great as we could get judging points for the day. Gotta catch em all

[helmet]

That would be great Will, how much does that come in at?
