Hi everyone,
In order to be fair to all entrants in the competition, the results for each and all of the 11 competitions will not be posted on the web until all 11 competitions results are ready to be posted simultaneously. At the individual First Round competitions the organizers have the option to read the winners list after the judging is completed. The organizers also send out the score sheets in a timely manner after each competition.
It is true that the entrants in the first competition may have an advantage over those in later competitions, but everyone has the opportunity to re-brew their beers at any time, including ahead of the results being posted on the web. If your beer qualifies for the Final Round, then you are ready. If not, then you have another 5 gallon batch of a beer that you love.
Good luck in the competition!
Cheers,
Janis
