Is this club active in North DE?

I am also in north DE. Does anyone know of local competitions in the area? I am relatively new to these parts. Thanks in advance.

I also submitted a handful of beers with a buddy. Scored in the 30s as well for all and placed with our IPA. This was our first time in any competition and was a great experience. Congrats on your saison! Looking forward to more of these competitions.

Probably the smallest amount of beer that has been in my fridge for a while. All I have at the moment is Sam Adams Merry Mischief.

Would have been the ultimate ending to that kind of night.

We should just make this into the "I got drunk and brewed" thread...

I second this. Make sure you are leaving enough room. Although I have no experience with coopers drops, I would still recommend leaving some more space in the bottles.

Thanks for the replies. I don't feel as bad now. As you said, no point in brewing if you aren't going to drink it...

I was thinking the same thing in regards to the yeast but wasn't sure what the missing airlock cap would do. Thanks.

So....my friend and I drank one too many homebrews during out last brew and set the temperature of the refrigerator too low and wound up freezing the beer while in primary fermentation (brewed a pilsner). Then, to make it worse, when we realized our beer was completely frozen and turned down the...

Sorry if someone has already asked this but how much per barrel? Thanks.
