Oskaar sez:
"This is the largest mead only competition and collection of international mead, mead afficionados and mead makers in the known world! If you are a hardcore mead junkie, this is the place to be, and if you only enter one mead competition in 2007 make it the IMA Mead Festival Home Mead Maker Competition. You won't be sorry."
Entry Deadline is December 15th, 2006. 1st Round Judging – January, 2007
Note:
Second round judging and medal announcements will occur on site at the February, 2007 festival. Therefore, you will not need to ship additional mead for the medal round! We will pull the top three winners from each category to be judged in second round judging. Winners will NOT be announced until Friday, February 9, 2007. Score sheets will be sent immediately thereafter.
The Festival:
Friday, February 9, 2007 - Saturday, February 10, 2007
Mead is 'the Drink of Love' so when better than Valentines weekend?!
