I certainly do appreciate all efforts put in by all concerned, and I'm absolutely thrilled by my first in the Strong Ale category.


I am a bit puzzled by the marks and comments for my robust porter, it was declared 'infected' and very sour, on the scoresheet I could read, the other sheet either did not scan well or was written in something very faint, as it cannot be read. 


The porter I submitted was in two separate 330ml bottles, so unlikely both were contaminated, never had a contaminated beer in well over 2000 bottles since I started brewing again in dec 2014, and anyone who has tried this porter does not think it sour as described, including some very experienced beer drinkers. My porter received the lowest mark in the whole competition of 31, which is a bit disheartening. I was wondering if it were somehow mixed up and if there was a way to check this with the entry number?
