Did everyone get ribbons after they got their scoresheets? I finally got my score sheets from San Diego but no ribbon.
Did everyone get ribbons after they got their scoresheets? I finally got my score sheets from San Diego but no ribbon.
My ribbons arrived, and the letter was totally confusing, it said both
"Like last year, Your certificates are only available in electronic form"
and then
"your certificates are enclosed in this package"
Anyone get anything different, or know where to download the certificates?
For the final entries do you need to send the recipe along with the beers or is just entering the recipe into the competition website good enough?

Just entered on the website. They only need the recipe for posting in Zymurgy if you win a gold medal. They are not used in the final round judging as far as I know.

Anybody having trouble entering their recipes on the website? I kept getting "parse syntax error" when I hit the submit button.
I didn't have a problem, but I also plugged my recipe in as soon as I was able. I haven't printed entry labels yet though. I should do that now while I know I'm able then. I'll be hand delivering mine on Sunday during the available window. Fortunately rebrew came out absolutely fantastic (better than the original that placed, long story there...), so I'm hopeful. Of course even a well brewed Mild I find is hit or miss with judges, so I'll have to wait and see.
I am also driving up for the 3 hour window on Sunday! Plus driving to Winchester on Saturday to judge, going to be a long weekend...
I sat a beer out then drank a beer. Repeated this 2 more times and was surprised at how much better I felt about sending my hard work into the unknown!Feeling very weird about pulling my beers out of the fridge and putting them in a box to sit in a delivery truck/plane. Such is the plague of the NHC I assume. Any tips?
So UPS definitely will not ship beer unless you are entered into a contract with them.

I think the Brewing Network usually broadcasts it. If you can't find it on the AHA/NHC/"Homebrew Con" website, the BN would be the second place I would look.
Also, TN is a reasonable drive. There's probably still space at the conference and banquet. So, uh, show up.
I have gotten my scores and certificates, but never received my scoresheets. I didn't expect to advance to the next round or anything, but did want to get the feedback on my beer. I emailed the contacts from the Austin regional and they said it must have gotten lost in the mail. "Sorry, we don't make copies of the scoresheets, Cheers." $50 for entry fees and shipping flushed down the toilet, because what good are the scores without knowing what the scores mean. Sorry. My rant for the day. Congrats to everyone that did good.
