had alot of fun and shoutout to Bokonon, Lemy, and to John the head brewer at Shrub Steppe for helping get this little BN competition judged. Thanks for all who entered. I will be messaging each of you for mailing info for your BJCP scoresheets.

Well that's f'ing exciting. I enjoyed it and I'm glad I lucked out with the judges liking it too. All I did was make a Dortmunder and added porter extract at bottling. Glad listening to Tasty has payed off.

Let's figure out when we would like the next beer to be due since that may effect what style we brew. How often do we want to do this. Every 2, 3, 4 months?

Big shout out to Pork for getting off his hams and pushing this comp along. Also to the judges who obviously have amazing palates.

[NervousDad]

Congrats EllisTX and thanks for setting up the competition Porkslapper and the judges!! I'm looking forward to the next one.

[PorkSlapper]

I'd love to do the comp every 4 months, and perhaps pic a beer style from the Brewing with Style itinerary, so that we can do our own little judging, and then the winner can send a bottle into the show, I bet Jamil, Tasty, and Moscow would have fun tasting the winning brew on their show.

[EagleDude]

keep us posted with plenty of time and I'll partake in the next round.

[EllisTX]

March 15th maybe for the next brew to be due?


I'm thinking we should brew a.......

Strong Scotch Ale

I've never brewed one but I've been hammering on this Oskar Blues Ol' Chub lately and I'm a huge fan. Also, I don't think it's a style that requires any special temps or procedures so everyone should be able to take a shot.

I wanna play too!

I think a Strong Scotch Ale would be fun! My dad loves those but I have yet to brew one.

Should I make it chocked full of that hideous smoked peat malt? That should clinch a win.
