That's grand, what times/days are suitable?

I think business hours Monday to Friday if that suits. Just ask for Sally-Anne.

We got one of the Cork entries during Mick's cider run. The other one will probably have to post at this stage of the game. Collection is in full swing. I've contacted the entrant and they're happy enough to post. If there's anyone else looking to register tonight, they'll probably have to do the same.

John will be in touch, he's swinging down your way over the next while.

On this, the eve of Brew na Bóinne 2017, we'd like to wish all of our entrants the best of luck tomorrow.
At 53 entries I think this makes it a pretty big competition.

Thanks in advance to the judges and stewards involved tomorrow.

Lastly, let's just shore up the prizes on the go tomorrow.

1st:
Brehon Brewery to brew the winning beer (malt sponsored by Loughran Family Malt), a 25kg bag of Loughrans' pale or lager malt, 100g of Sorachi Ace & 100g Falconer's Flight (courtesy of Mottly Brew) & a stay in the D hotel, Drogheda.
2nd:
€50 voucher from The Homebrew Company & a hamper from beerclub.ie
3rd:
€50 voucher from The Homebrew Company & a hamper from The Malt House, Trim.

All in all, not too shabby!

Go n-eirí an t-adh libh!

I'll be queuing up to get my hands on a few bottles of this. Exceptional stuff!

[Oisin]

Thanks. Really chuffed with this. It was a bit of an experiment but I took my time planning the recipe and I was pleased with the result. Glad the judges liked it too!

[CClinton48]

The standard in the competition was very high. Great to see so many unusual stouts entered. The judges had their work cut out for them. Well done to everyone involved from organising to judging!

[Blueshed]

Very happy with my score. Thanks very much to all the Wee county brewers and there hard work put into running the competition.
