Lol, very tempting. Here's his exact words:
"...Do not use plastic hoses, try to ferment in glass, samitize."
Do you think he is saying for me to replace my hoses, maybe because there's a bug in them? Or am I giving him too much credit.

Maybe he thinks silicone hoses are needed for everything?
As for fermenting in glass... mine was fermented in plastic and I received no such comment.
How the hell does someone score a 43 and not place? There must have been some amazing beers there...

WHOAH. Check this. One of the Hogtown Brewers placed with THIRTEEN beers?!?!
http://www.hogtownbrewers.org/Brewoff/BrewoffFrames.html
Look for "Darryl Kochaniec"
WHAT. THE. ****. Jamil Z probably couldn't have place 13 beers in 12 categories. Yup, he placed FIRST AND SECOND in Smoked/Wood-aged Beers. Seriously?
They don't list the scores of the beers that placed, unfortunately. I thought it was weird that I didn't place with a 37/40 on a Weizenbock but Barron not placing with a 43 Bitter is f*cking nuts.
Look at 2009 and you'll see a lot of the same names this year.

yup, that comp is definitely rigged. Knowing how much they care about club points (which are earned at competitions), it's no surprise. If you're a member they pay 100% of the cost for you to enter a competition. Shipping, entry fees, everything. Every time someone from a club places, that club gets a point depending on the place they take.

It's a waste of time and money entering that competition. I'd send them an e-mail asking the scores of the other beers in that category without telling them your name.

Hey guys, Alex here!
I finally found the thread you guys are all on. At least I am assuming it is the right one. Can't be too far off when Chris is telling people he will email pictures of his balls to judges.
