Title: BJCP Exam
Post by: JohnE on March 07, 2012, 03:21:28 PM
Hey everyone,

I was talking with a friend of mine who is part of the Brewnosers group in Halifax and he mentioned they're holding a BJCP exam April of next year (2013).

If anyone is interested in writing it I can find out more details from him.

Unfortunately its not that easy to set up an exam for the BJCP. They only allow so many exams within a certain time period for the entire world.

All I know is it's a badge of credibility; when a BJCP judge says "egg on the nose", people listen :P
