Thanks Rob, I'll let you know if I need them.

@JamesC - great call. Good excuse to grab a six pack.

[Two Wheeler]

Hey folks, anyone looking to get in on this, I'm going to be shipping out early next week. I'll be at the meeting today, or can connect with you next week.

You can go here: http://comp.barleyment.ca/ to register your entries, and pay your fees, and print bottle tags for the event.

Congrats to @DeMerch who won the gold medal in category 8 with his ESB.   

[brew]

Nice well done!

Thanks buddy. Never would have happened without your encouragement, so it's kind of like you won too. Except you didn't. Just me.

How did you place @Two Wheeler ? I think I tried your ESB and I remember enjoying it.

[Two Wheeler]

Thanks Rob!

Full results and feedback aren't released yet, but I didn't place. I'll update when/if I get a score.

[Two Wheeler]

Hey @robcoombs , my ESB scored 32, 33, 34 of 50 by three judges. I was pretty happy with that. @DeMerch 's won with a 39 and 40.

I've attached the score sheets for anyone who hasn't seen them before. This was a good experience, and the feedback is great. Going forward I'm going send off to as many competitions as I can. I think it's a neat aspect of the hobby.

I think you should definitely be happy with that! I'm interested in entering for the next competition. Are you submitting a beer for Garrison's robust porter competition?

[Two Wheeler]

Hey Rob, definitely going to brew a robust porter for Garrison. Sounds like the gala down there is a lot of fun!

Also - planning on sending off to this comp by the end of the week... happy to share shipping if anyone is interested. http://homebrewers.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/CABA_AAA_2014_Rules.pdf

If you can hold off until early next week I would love to send in a winter warmer I am carbonating.

I'd love to submit a beer for this but everything I have is in 500ml or larger bottles. I'll keep the size restriction in mind for future bottling sessions.

[Roger]

I wonder if larger bottles would be disqualified? Seems odd you'd think they would welcome larger samples.

[robcoombs]

Yeah, it states specifically for 350-355 ml bottles. I agree with you Roger, I can't see why it would matter either way.
