We are looking at running this comp again with a few changes, one of those being the winner will be pouring a couple of kegs of his brew at the paddys Beer Festival in October. Any suggestions?
Remember when you did a lap of Mount Panorama in the family Tarago & wondered what it would be like to take a spot on the grid in the big race?
Have you ever screamed down the sideline in a game of Wednesday night touch footy, & thought you could make it in the NRL?
You crack a perfect 7 iron to inches from the flag to take out the nearest to the pin in the RSL Social Club golf day? Pack your bags; next its Tour School and a crack at the Pro-Circuit!
Have you ever brewed a beer that you reckon should be on tap at the local for all your mates to rave about?
This is the ALL GRAIN BREWING comp for you!!
Welcome to the inaugural Paddys Challenge. The aim of this competition is to find an amateur brewer that has a beer that is not only a great beer, but will be attractive in a commercial environment. The beer will be judged on flavour, balance, appearance, & sessionability. The brewer of this precious drop will be rewarded with endless bragging rights. The winning beer will be brewed at Paddy's Brewery in a 600-litre batch & will be added to our range. If you live in Sydney or are willing to travel then you are welcome to be present on brew day. We will crack the first keg on a Saturday night with all your mates paying for the privilege of drinking your beer & listening to you brag.
What are you going to brew?
You are trying to produce a commercially viable beer. The best way to tell if a beer is any good is how many kegs are we selling per week? We are not going to replace a beer that is already on tap. You can do some homework by coming in & trying a few of our beers.
