I entered this competition, going to head up to Wrought Iron Grill today for the results. Plan on stopping at Redwood Lodge on my way there and Fenton Winery & Brewery on my way back! Lets hope my beers made it from their drop off point

Oh and has your check been cashed yet? Mine hasn't so it has me worried that maybe they didn't receive my beers. I'm sure I'm just being paranoid.

I received my score sheets via email about 30 min ago, and just checked my bank and no, they did not cash my check yet.
I haven't gotten any results yet but at least I know I didn't win the specialty catagory.

I entered 3 beers, just got my score sheets emailed to me, my Imperial Black IPA took 1st in specialty beers, they didn't like my Kolsch, and my belgian mistake (f'd a beer up with over sparge, did a longer boil and different hops, tastes good though) did ok.
Nice job guys! I received all of my scoresheets, none of my beers were winners Best I pulled out was a 34 on my Black Licorice Stout.
You're black licorice stout was your best scorer?!? That's awesome for such a controversial beer. What were the comments like?
I do agree that if you cut down on the anise and beef up the stout so there's a bit more balance and the licorice isn't so overwhelming, you might have a winner. I think even something worth sending into Longshot.
Got mine too. Looks like my Brett/Oaked Saison got a 1st, but I'm unclear if that's just the flight or if I won a medal. I'm happy with the score and remarks either way (42.5 score).

Nice! Was that in specialty category? My black IPA scored a 44 and said place awarded 1. Great scores all around!
No, it was in the Belgian category with the Belgian specialty subcategory. It says place awarded 1.
Just got my scorecard. I was secretly hoping to place, but knew I wouldn't . :cross:
My Brown Porter scored 37, 37, and 34, while my Fuzzy Blonde (fruit beer) scored 40 and 39.
I don't know why I had 3 scores and 2...anybody have an idea? Could it be the BP was considered for the BOS round and therefore got a 3rd score?
Also, what score gets an honorable mention? I thought it was 40 overall but could be wrong.
I'm glad I entered, got some good feedback, nothing surprising, and of course a couple of contradictory comments. I'll definitely be doing more of these.
Cheers!
At least my beer didn't smell like doritos this time.
Just found out that I got third in 23A. The judges didn't fill in the box on the score sheet so I thought I didn't place. They posted the winners on their website. You guys may want to pop on there and check yours just to make sure.
