February Forum Competition - Dark Beers

[Leon103]

Well done all, especially the judges for going through all those beers.

The scores are in.

I will get the feedback done over the next few days and DM you all directly.

Thank you to everyone who took part, it was a great experience and I appreciate being given the chance to do this.

Of course, I am no beer judge but I have been fair across the board.

1st Place 38/50 - @Oneflewover with his Belgian Dark Strong Ale.

2nd Place 36/50 - @strange-steve with his Weizenbock.

3rd Place 35/50 - @dryyourbeers with his Stout.

Massive congratulations to @Oneflewover! Can you DM me your details mate as you've won a £10 LoveBrewing voucher!

Thanks so much for taking the time and apologies again for covering your work post room with raspberry & chocolate stout when the first one smashed.

I am genuinely in shock to have come 3rd - I was just after some feedback! You’ve made my weekend

Wow, I'm so pleased! Bottled up V2 of that beer this morning as it goes, been secondary fermenting with Wyeast 3711. It's quite a bit drier, and to my taste an improvement

Thanks @Grizzly Notations , I'll DM you in a bit

Hi @Grizzly Notations , are you planning on profiding feedback for all entrants, or just the top three?

If possible, I'd like feedback on my beer as it's the only way I know what I need to improve.

 

[Ghillie]

Well done all!

The judge is to provide feedback to all.

Hi Harry. I will be providing feedback on EVERY beer through this week. That is 29 lots of feedback, but it will be done.

Any estimates of when the feedback will be arriving?

I had previously said that it would over the course of the week. A few people have received theirs already. I am doing this between Uni, work and family commitments. But it will all be done by Sunday.

Ended up like writing a dissertation?

Not quite. But without making excuses... I've had to do 3 papers for university this week as well as 1 exam and am still doing a paper whilst doing these reviews today. Plus with working and family commitments, it's been a struggle.
