Home Brew Competition - October 17

[Honk]

Never entered a competition before but I like the look of the new format and have a dark mild just about ready so hoping for some constructive feedback. Will pm Hoddy now.

Was going to get this posted out this afternoon but it was raining (lightweight) so stayed in and did some sampling with no2 son who likes dark beers. We decided that my old Peculier clone may be a better entry and as I have the day off should get it in the post tomorrow (weather permitting :-?)

Two more arrived today. Still time if you tell me you have posted your entry before the end of the month. I think we’re on about 8 maybe 9. Should see maybe 10.

I will post a list of the entrants and their beers after all of the entries have arrived.

Judging will be on Friday the 3rd.

Made a American stout from the Greg Hughes book that I thought I would enter but I don't think its that great so not going to bother:cry: Then I bottled a "jet black heart" clone yesterday. The sample tasted good, its flippin young! But as i'm sure ill be drinking it in a week might as well get one off to you.
And thinking about it I have a dark'ish brett saison you might be interested in?

You'll have to forgive my stupidity but the saison is know where near dark enough for the comp
So ive posted you the stout for the comp and chucked in the saison to have at your leisure. Its not carbed as high as I would like but its an interesting beer that's for sure:lol:

So unless anyone else has a beer in the post I’m not aware of, that makes entry into the October “Dark Beer” category officially..........CLOSED!!!

I can reveal that we have 12 entries for this prestigious prize of the dark beer category of 2017.

Anyway good luck everyone.

I’m heartened by how much people have embraced this comp and I cannot wait to test out your beers [emoji4]
