Any chance of posting an entry form on here that won't use all the ink in my printer? Please.
 
Cheers WarmBeer, printing out four of the other ones would have totally killed my little printer.
 
Hi all,

We are also including Home Make It in our drop-off points for your entries.

Stores are located at:
  • Clayton - 4/158 Wellington Road
  • Reservoir - 265 Spring Street

Good Luck all.

Further details re judging and stewarding are below. I still need 3 more judges. Novices are welcome, and will be paired with more experienced judges. Camping is available on the Saturday night, and transport to/from Frankston station is available - so you really have no excuse not to come :)


The competition is BJCP registered but non-BJCP judges are most welcome.

Saturday November 5th - 11 am Start (please arrive by 10:30, Lunch provided)
Hickinbotham Winery - 194 Nepean Hwy Dromana VIC (Melway Ref: 160 K2)


Category & Styles:
1. German Ales - Hefeweizen, Dunkleweizen, Weizenbock, Altbiers, Kolsch
2. Light coloured lagers - German Pilsner, Munich Helles, Dortmunder Export
3. Dark coloured lagers - Schwarzbier, Munich Dunkel, Oktoberfest, Vienna Lager, Rauchbier
4. Bocks - MaiBock, Traditional Bock, Dopplebock, Eisbock


If you plan to enter any beers please let me know what categories you're entering so I can make sure no one is judging their own entry. Also if you have a preferred style to judge please let me know, and I will do my best to allocate you in that category.

NB - this year we will NOT be accepting entries on the day of the comp, so please drop off your entries to one of the designated drop off points.

Transport/camping -
Transport can be arranged to/from Frankston station.
Camping is available at the winery if you'd like to stay Saturday night. Many of the Bayside members camp. The club will be putting on a spit roast Saturday night, and breakfast on Sunday (for a small fee), or you're welcome to cater for yourself.


Cheers

Edit, you changed your post as I was replying :)
 
I assume that entry fee goes into an envelope attached to the bottle ?
