This post is more aimed at brewers in the Hunter region though anyone is welcome.
A couple of regular Hunter drewers were recently discussing starting an "Iron Brewer" style of fun brewing competition (Based on the TV show Iron Chef).
Basically it will invlove having a key ingredient named and then brewing a beer that highlights the key ingredients characterisitics. Brewers will then have a set time frame to produce the brew, typically three months. The key ingredient could be a grain type or a hop - with the odd yeast thrown in for fun. I am thinking of posting a key ingredient once a month - starting the comp in the new year.
The rules are very broad at the moment, though seem quite workable and not restrictive.
Who would be interested in partaking of this fun event? Judging details are sketchy at this point in time, however I would endeavour to use impartial judges (eg. customers at Marks Homebrew - note this is only an example!!)
Please indicate your interest or any ideas how to run this better.
Regards
Stephen
