I sent my first beer off to competition a few weeks ago, carefully following all instructions, or so I thought. I somehow missed the bit stating "Obliterate any lettering or graphics on the cap with a permanent black marker", and sure enough, my cap had a little small lettering. So, if my beer is disqualified, is it still judged but ineligible to place, or is it given away to the volunteers? I don't much care about winning any awards, but I'm really looking forward to a professional critique, and will be pretty bummed if it just gets tossed.
