What "details" are you after? Does this help?: http://www.vicbrew.org/maps/vicbrew2015.htm

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Super keen on stewarding, what date is the latest one can register? Want to confirm sister's bday won't interrupt my plans

 

[Yob]

Just put your name down now & if things change, let us know ASAP so we can accommodate.

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Sweet mate, I assume the category nominations are more relevant for judges and allocating them than stewards yeah? I haven't decided what categories I'm entering yet that's all.... :huh:

That would be them.Thanks.

 

[MartinOC]

Yep. If you're Stewarding, it's not really that relevant if you've got an entry in a particular category. It all gets explained on the day.

LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!!!!!!!

 

[Yob]

Only one entry per style right?

So I must choose between raspberry RIS and whisky RIS now?

Oh the humanity...

 

[MartinOC]

Does this mean you're going to Judge/Steward????

Oh the humanity...

Two entries per style, one per Sub-Style. Since your penchant is for weird & wonderful, these two will only fit into "Specialty", so you could legitimately enter them both in Specialty.....but that's it for you my son...

 

[syl]

Does this mean you're going to Judge/Steward????

I would love to, and I appreciate all the work everyone does, but I can't make those dates.

I will throw in some entries though.

This time of year is just out of hand unfortunately, brewery building and business planning for the day job...

Keep up the good work all y'all. If my circumstances change I will get down to steward!

Cool. I can always do with an extra hand if you just decide to rock-up & help-out.....and drink freebies...

 

[VP Brewing]

Which category would a black IPA go in?

 

[Fourstar]

Which category would a black IPA go in?

specialty probably.

 

[Yob]

Aren't there new cats for it?

 

[MartinOC]

Which category would a black IPA go in?

At the moment, it would be "Specialty" until categories get re-allocated.

specialty probably.

Wot he said.....

Aren't there new cats for it?

At the moment, NO.

No changes to the Vicbrew categories until after AABC 2015, when the state Delegates will decide on what changes to all categories for entry to state & National cat's will be decided-upon.

Feel free to put an entry-in, but it's going to HAVE to go into "Specialty" until a decision is made.

 

[VP Brewing]

Thanks. Specialty it is then.

 

[Andy_Chil]

I have never had a go at competition before and have decided to give this a crack. I can't seem to find the Vic Brew on the Comp Master website to register. Does this mean I should just use the paper form?

 

[syl]

I can't see it either - I haven't tried to enter yet though.

 

[MartinOC]

Hi Guys,

Just wait awhile. Andy D. has been developing an updated version of CM which I believe should be good to go live in the next few days-a week or so. Keep your eyes peeled & I'll also post-up here when it's ready to go.
