Hi fellow homebrewers!
My name is Ed. I started entering homebrew competitions a few years ago. Through the process of entering beers into a number of competitions, I realized, from an entrant’s perspective, homebrew competitions are disconnected and it is impossible to see a complete view of a beer and its scores/awards across all competitions, as well as, the homebrewer entering them. If you’ve experienced entering beers in competitions online, you’ve seen how the registration, management, and publishing of scores and awards for the competition are hosted on each competition’s website. I created BrewScene.com in an effort to give organizers an option to centrally manage their competitions and to give homebrewers a single place to enter and track the scores of their beers across any competition in the US (International planned in future release). And it’s free!
As a homebrewer, you get the following:
As a competition organizer, you get the following:
The site was just recently launched so I encourage you to check it out and provide your feedback. Immediately, you can enter scores and awards you’ve won in previous competitions to start building out the Top Beers, Homebrewers, and Homebrew Clubs ranking. I know there are a ton of you out there that can top the three beers I have in the Top Beer ranking!
If you see the value in the site and the ultimate vision, I need your help to make it successful. I’m looking for competition organizers who are interested in using the site for an upcoming competition. If you are a competition organizer, reach out to me (here or in a PM) and I can provide a full overview of the competition management functionality and get you started. Early adopters will have a good chance to have their enhancements/suggestions implemented. If you are not an organizer, but enter competitions, reach out to your competition organizers to request they check it out.
Thanks for taking the time to check it out. Feedback is more than welcome!
Cheers!
