National Homebrew Competition 2019

[user 21663]

A bunch of sites are now posted... I think all of them that have judged actually.

KC and Indy judge this weekend and Philly has two cider flights and 1 beer flight to finish. Got a 2nd with Apple Pie cider.

@mwilcox ..... Looks like a fine showing in Denver!

Thank you my friend. Apparently I still can't get GLINTCAP gold medal Ice Cider through, but I shouldn't ever complain about 4/5. I'll be judging in KC this weekend; if you have some there I will listen for your name when it's over. cheers--

MN results were posted. No score sheets emailed yet.

Boston has posted places but not scores. I was fine until now- waiting for any news at all - but now that I found out my brew took second in category, I have no patience and really, really, really want my score sheets! First year and one entry. Absolutely twitchy right now.....

 

[mwilcox]

my brew took second ... First year and one entry.

This is a great accomplishment already, congratulations.

I was in Milwaukee.... Dortmund and Mild made it through. ( Not sure, but that has to be about the 4th or 5th time for both of those making it to finals now). I was hoping to get a couple others through (who isn't Had a Ordinary Bitter, Helles and Czech Dark Lager that did not make it.... be interested to see scores on them and if they were close or not. I had a problem with my capper and had some that were leaking...... I checked the ones I sent pretty well, but, I hope I did not do something stupid like send one (couple) that was capped poorly.

Congrats to those who advanced! Of course of all the regions that judged already, everyone has posted winners EXCEPT Philly which is the one I am in! Same thing happened last year when I was in Chicago one, it took forever to post! Have 5 beers in, though think only 3 have any chance of advancing with only one of those having a great chance (has scored 40+ in other comps).

 

[Pintabone]

Anyone know if Philly will finish up today?

Would think so, they can’t have many categories left from last week. Then we have to wait for the AHA to actually verify results, so maybe mid-week results will be posted.

Mike I thought you were giving up Big Trophy Hunting after your New England cider won it all in 2017? I hope to see you in Providence this year, ill be bringing a keg or two of cider for club night - dont think Ill make GLINTCAP though, new job is not quite as flexible as the old one

 

[SlanginDueces]

Any word on how Indy is doing?

 

[John Meerse]

Ani idea when we can expect scoresheets? That “up to 10 days after judging has been completed” has long come and gone...

Sorry it ends today.

not sure why you thought I was done in '17 when I won MMOTY last year, but whatever - I'm pretty much retired from everything but NHC and that is coming soon. Sorry, no trip to MI or RI this year but I do plan to be in *redacted* next year.

For those wondering, KC and Indy finished on Saturday.

cheers--

Anyone receive score sheets yet? Emailed I assume?

 

[treacheroustexan]

Not yet. I heard they would be sent out 10 days after ALL judging is completed. I’m getting anxious.

 

[jdauria]

Come on Philly post! You would think AHA would have had it verified except for the three categories that judged this weekend and could have verified those yesterday! 2nd year in a row I get the region that takes the longest.

 

[Yooper]

Just began judging today I believe.

Indy's done.

 

[mwilcox]

my scoresheets were just emailed to me a few minutes ago, FWIW.

What region were you in?

 

[bob1852]

Ditto.

Twice, in fact....

 

[mwilcox]

What region were you in?

Denver.

 

[Pintabone]

That's promising, at least some activity. Hopefully they'll load the Philly winners then soon.

 

[bedman]

Philly is posted. I have two going! Woooooo!

Awesome, congrats! What styles?

 

[bedman]

Awesome, congrats! What styles?

A blended sour with Kumquats took first in european sours as a fruit lambic and a Cherry Berliner Weisse with Mahlab spice took 3rd in fruit beer as a fruit and spice beer.

 

[SlanginDueces]

2 going through, I guess it’s rebrew time!

 

[jdauria]

Two going through from Philly, Czech Dark Lager and a Helles! Good thing I was already rebrewing the Czech Dark this weekend anyway! Some grain bill and hop changes from first version. Will have to brew the Helles next week.
