Default Does anyone have one of these?

This certificate dates back to 1994 when I entered a HB competition and finished 3rd in my class

Just wondering if others have one too?

Very cool.

Of course, in '94, there were only 4 homebrewers in the world.

Woa! I used DME and LME back then and when I moved 6 years ago, I lost my recipe notebook

I DO remember having 3 of those bottles age about 9 months in anticipation of the competition. I beat out some all grain beers and that was a surprise! I didn't even get to taste my beer hehe.

I won a nice THICK beer pitcher that I still have

It was pretty active back then
