Neither did I, but it's good to finally see who did!

congrats to the winners. My Dopplebock placed 2nd. Also, the wood-aged beer that took 2nd was from a barrel project down in my basement along with Joe Dragon who posted above.

Agree. And it's nice to see that they will be emailing out the score sheets. No snail mail should speed up that process.

edit to say congrats to mklawz!

Has anyone received their score sheets yet?

Nope

Got a response on Saturday that they hope to have the scorecards sent out within two weeks.

Hmm. I'm interested to see the quality of my feedback. It isn't a good sign that the results took so long to post.

I received mine through gmail on January 31. I submitted a total of three beers, here are the general comments:

Belgian Pale Ale
- 1st Judge's Score: 32 (Judge Rank: National)
- 2nd Judge's Score: 33 (Judge Rank: Recognized)
- Combined Score: 32.5
- Comment Quality: All the sections were filled out and comments were helpful and appropriate. I was pleased with the quality of their score sheets.

Brown Porter
- 1st Judge's Score: 29 (Judge Rank: Recognized)
- 2nd Judge's Score: 33 (Judge Rank: National)
- Combined Score: 31
- Comment Quality: Again, solid comments. All sections filled out completely. A little miffed at the 1st judge because he scored me low but didn't offer much criticism.

IPA
- 1st Judge's Score: 25 (Judge Rank: Certified)
- 2nd Judge's Score: 26 (Judge Rank: Not Indicated)
- Combined Score: 25
- Comment Quality: Mediocre. I took the BJCP tasting exam in November, so I know that you need to completely fill out each section - not put one or two words per section. Judge #2's overall impression comment: "This beer needs to be more hop forward". Why thank you, that's all you got out that beer? What a waste...

The majority of judging was good and the feedback was helpful with the exception of the IPA. However, given their continued issues with the competition year after year, I will not be entering the Boneyard Brewoff in 2014.

Thanks for the reply, sounds like all in all you did well, I will have to check my mail again and see if I missed their response. Otherwise it sounds like a call. Thanks, and well done!
