2015 Brew Masters Competition Judging Moved.

Hi everyone,
Due to multiple judge conflicts, I had to move the judging for this year's competition to 6pm ET, Wednesday, May 13th in Escanaba.  I apologize for the delay, but this will allow for better judging/feedback.  We have a rather small group of entries this year, with minimal club participation.
Despite this, we will hopefully have another good competition.  In light of this, next year, we will very likely combine the Brew Masters and Dead of Winter Stout Competitions, to better utilize our judges and hopefully increase club interest in both competitions.

Dead of Winter Update

NEW RULES for 2015: You will need to submit 4 10-12 oz bottles, OR 2 22 oz. bottles, OR 1 half to one gallon growler. You will also be allowed to enter up to five beers this year as well.   Entry fee will be $5. 
ALSO NEW THIS YEAR:Didn't have time to brew?  That's ok.  This year we will revive the Chili Cook-off.  Bring your chili (preferably in a crock pot) to be judged in a Best of Show format.  At this point, we do not have any rules regarding the chili and entry is free.  The leftover beer and chili will be served as a post-competition meal.
We are also looking for beer and chili judges.  Please contact the Czar if you are interested.
