Beerfest 2010
​

Final Results
​

Folks, the moment you've all been waiting for - the results of Beerfest 2010.

We had a great weekend down at Mirboo North. The annual Golf tournament was (as usual) a debacle of the most amusing kind, and the social side was a blast.

Thanks to all the stewards and judges who participated and helped make this event as successful as it was.

A big thank you also to those who helped out behind the scenes.

Hopefully we'll see all of you at Beerfest next year - we hope to make the 2011 event bigger and better than ever!

Regards,

Andy
Melbourne Brewers President

Congrats to all the place getters.

131 Points for the Strong Scotch Ale - Wow!

116 points for the Novice Brewer winner too! and a Lambic at that.

(I presume judging was based on 3 scores of 50?)

The Strong Scotch Ale was brewed by Geoff Daly from Westgate....
Us westagaters have now taken best beer in show a few times in the last 6 months ( Vicbrew as well )
Geoff also brewed the dry stout at the ANHC Beer & Food dinner in November last year....
Very acomplished brewer is Geoff...
Yes...3 scores of 50...
Was a cracking weekend....
Congrats to Melbourne Brewers for running a fine comp !

Yes, three scores per beer out of 50. For the larger categories we had 4 judges on the panel, with only 3 providing scores at any one time to attempt to curb palate fatigue. This appeared to work really well.

Cheers!

Well done on a great comp, Andy, is that you who won the Best Novice?
Fergus in marketing overdrive.... lol, come join the westgate brewers :icon_chickcheers: , it's unofficial & you heard it here first; we're Melbournes highest scoring per capita club, if that's a real award. we also have no ego issues. The pressure is on you Ferg to pull your weight & start filling up the trophy cabinet.

Has Lindon pulled the heineken keg out of his ass yet? :blink:

A tree branch nearly fell on my tent, about 5 or 6 metres long, miraculously it landed and balanced on a fork of a lower branch about 3 feet wide, lucky; I might have spilled my beer. Never camp under a tree on a windy night; very hard to sleep.

Well done Chris & Robin, true champion brewers.

Thanks heaps - it was a blast to run.

And yep - that was me... first placing in a comp, so pretty happy about that (after my effort last year that landed last place in the same category as I recall )

Great weekend away - lots of fun judging and hanging out with the crew.

Looking forward to next year already!!

Updated Results:

My apologies to those who were left off the full results (3 in Pale Ales, and one double appearance in Porter & Stout). There are no changes to the standing for any of the categories.

Regards,

Andy

[chris.taylor.98]

Four long years in the wilderness, of bribes to fellow club members going unrewarded (damn you blind judging!!), entering in excess of 14 beers at a time ... only to get a bunch of 4th places.

This year its was well whats left in the cupboard ... chuck it in without even a second thought and there it is!!

Hopefully Robin and I can use the prize for good instead of evil

Thanks to all who come up and made the event possible ... and special thanks to Andy for taking over when I had to pull out as comp Director.

Congrats to all ... especially that mad Irish bugger that took out Best Beer of Show ... next year Geoff I will not be forwarding the entry form on to you

 

[Thirsty Boy]

Well done Chris and looks like Robin was on Fire as well.

I am happy I finally got me a placing at Beerfest .... you guys just didn't seem too fond of my beers in general the last few years. Must have been your weird tastebuds not m dodgey beers LOL

Thanks to Melbourne Brewers - looks like another successful comp and sounds like everyone had a good weekend.

Cheers

Well done everyone, especially Geoff whom I last seen doing a lap of the town with his trophies, It was an awesome big beer that had held itself in previous comps and stood out here, Onya Lad :beerbang:
Chris T, well done and what a result with 2 first placings.
Cheers,

BTW, maybe Andy check out cat3, you have me listed twice.

I've had some differences with you on this forum but if your first name starts with D then you did well. Congratulations.

Still looking forward to that beer.
