Why ? Because you can hide a lot of stuff ups behind a S load of hops. Experienced brewers that brew lagers and Plis and delicate Ales are putting their brewing skills balls on the bench.Real men.
Dont be a Girlie boy's and brew APA's for comp's, then you are only as good as your hops. :lol:
"I'll be back" with real beers next year !

Didn't you enter a US Brown at PRBS this year? So what were you hiding? (Runs away)

Thats what I did an ABrown trying to hide a multitude of sins so I confess I'm a mug brewer


Still its a good feeling to be in it till the judge has a sip jeez it attenuated & ended up dry as a bone with 1272 comming through with its tartness personified

How the hell do the judges go after tasting my AB everything will taste the same sorry for the crew behind my beer

Oh well give a mug a chance bit like the Dockers you little rippers probably not a chance in hell

Its a bit like waiting for youre first sip to see how youre batch went

cheers all

No entries in this WA state comp. The Brown you mention did pull up a Silver in the 2010 PRBS.

Give credit where credit is due. When preparing for the comp I spat in the brown straight after sculling my Munich Helles. Putting the cap on straight after my spit shouldn't give you the right to claim Silver :angry:.

I would have had no reservations entering in an APA this year...that is if my Wife didnt drink it all!

 

[brendanos]

not brendan o'sullivan?

I had planned to instigate operation: carpet bomb - but only got 2 brews into my schedule before life got in the way and I have hardly brewed since! Just ended up entering whatever I had on hand. At least finding categories to judge won't be as hard as it could have been had I entered more!

That's what I said. Looks like it was snap.

Probably when you pick up your trophies. Good luck.

haha, now that's optimistic GB.

I heard that these competitions are great for feedback on your brews so I entered a weiss that I thought was pretty good. Only I won't be there to be dressed down (metaphorically) for it. Was wanting some credible feedback on it.

Optimistic is the only way you can enter these comp's . You will get really good feedback from this one.
