Hi Gurk. Keen to enter a few beers this year. Not certain on what categories suit my beers. What is NEW in class 1. I have an amber ale and a saison that I might enter but I am not sure what category they belong in. Little help please.
Thanks all

 

[Geoff773]

Both the amber ale and the saison may siut the pale ale class. Depending on how much the vary from a the standard definition of these types you may enter them in the 'any other' class.
Thanks
