. No my Dort got a 29' another guy on here was the winner. My Dort got a 39.5 from some pretty esteemed judges at drunk monk. My scores were 29 for the Dort, 31 for my imperial ipa....too young, 34 for kolsch and 41 for amber ale....my absolute blandest beer. No placesThere are so many factors that can affect a particular score, that I think you just have to focus on whether the feedback is useful rather than the number. Different judges also have different standards for assigning numerical scores - one judge's 40 can be another's 30. What's important is that the judges are consistent. A great beer should make the mini BOS regardless of whether it's number is closer to 30 or 40, and after that point, the numerical score doesn't matter.
Reinstone, a Dort won first in light lager, was that yours?
I entered two in this one - 37 for Cream ale (no place) and 34 for RyePA (3rd in specialty). Never placed in cat. 23 before, so that was a bit of a surprise.
I know how you feel. I entered 3. My favorite, a Breakfast Stout, scored a 23. While an American Cream Ale I didn't think would do that well scored a 40. Who knows. On the bright side, second place in cat 23 is pretty cool. I just thought it would be the Breakfast Stout placing. I think I'm disappointed because the one that I subjectively liked so much was not received and accepted in the same way by other people.
Just out of curiosity, why did you enter an american cream ale in category 23 rather than 6? Congrats on the second! (even if it did bump me down to third...)
When do you think we'll get score sheets back from the ibu? I entered 2 beers as well, first comp too. Year old black ipa scored 31 and an American stout scored 32. Feeling good about it!
