Does anyone have one of these?

This certificate dates back to 1994 when I entered a HB competition and finished 3rd in my class

Just wondering if others have one too?

Very cool.

Of course, in '94, there were only 4 homebrewers in the world.

And one of them was Papazian...and he was the judge.

It's pretty funny, reading the paragraphs there.

how many times since then have you made that recipe? have you tweaked it at all since then?

Woa! I used DME and LME back then and when I moved 6 years ago, I lost my recipe notebook

I DO remember having 3 of those bottles age about 9 months in anticipation of the competition. I beat out some all grain beers and that was a surprise! I didn't even get to taste my beer hehe.

I won a nice THICK beer pitcher that I still have

I still get a laugh reading it myself now and then.

I pulled out a 1995 Zymurgy mag for some facts...
