Like most people, I forgot about this one, entries were due in on the 8th Nov.
If you are quick I think Roy may bend the rules a bit.

I hate to blow my own trumpet here, but just can't help myself. I snuck an entry in here and bugger me if it didn't win! Entered my Pilsner and came up with best in show. :beer: :beer:

This was the brew I took to Nov WCB meeting for a taster, it was on the back of comments there I decided to enter, so thanks boys for the encouragement.

Well done. Interesting hop usage, especially the Cascade bittering addition and no real aroma addition, though you probably got a fair amount from the 10 min addition. Anyway it sounds good and ha me takinga few notes with a pils just around the corner.

Cheers,

Steve

Well done Grabman :beerbang: Good to see all your hard work is paying off.

Any chance that one of the four remaining bottles could make it to the next WCB meeting :blink:
