I really enjoyed judging at this one last year + there's a few of us Norwich Amateur Brewers folks planning to enter + go down and judge.

LAB comps are always well run with the judges well looked after.

<our hope is that judging a few lagers won't leave us wiped out at 5pm!>

Just registered and added an entry

I’m going to have a bash at this. Just need to work out when to brew it so it has plenty of lagering time as I’m normally too impatient to leave it long enough.

Heads up every one, I’ve just bagged entry 106 out of 110.
If you’re thinking of entering but haven’t yet I wouldn’t hang around.

Could a mod correct my error in the thread title to 2024 please?

@Chippy_Tea, @The Baron?

Been trying to get on the site to pay my fees for Lager than Life but seems to be down. Anybody else having issues?

I can't remember if I already paid but can't get onto the website to check either

I wonder if something has gone awry with them launching LAB Open today?

 

[YeastFace]

There have been some issues with registration, (captcha related) which were resolved, but let me check on this.

Can you try on phone please and see if you have same issue?

 

[SMP Brewery]

It’s working now for me now, no longer a 403 error.

 

[Stu's Brews]

Yep, working now and as an added bonus it turns out I have already paid

 

[Benfleet Brewery]

6 spaces just showed up for LTL2024! If you missed out before and have a lager ready grab one now!

 

[YeastFace]

Happy LTL Day to all those all who celebrate. May your pints be crisp and full of foam.

Tables have been arranged thusly

Will share the results stream later on.

All the best to those entering and to those running it/volunteering today.

 

[Alastair70]

Looking forward to the day. My Munich dunkle is too pale so won’t score well. But it tastes great so I’m not worried. Expecting a sub-30 score due to the colour.

I'm interested to compare score and feedback to that of the National, and from my local club. The scores from both were bang on.

 

[Leon103]

Good luck everyone. Had a 43 last year and won **** all, don't think I will beat that this year.

Colour shouldn’t be so much of an issue, appearance carries a max score of 3 and includes other factors. Even if it were grey and murky (and if you could persuade someone to taste it!) you should only lose 3 points.
