[MR] New Brewer Contest; Stovik Novice Tourney, July 12, Upper Marlboro, MD (Storvik, Atlantia)

[Ric Loll]

Greetings to the list,

 

As sponsor and organizer of this contest, I invite all new brewers to enter
this upcoming competition.  It's just under a month, so you have enough time
to brew a simple ale if you start now!

 

The Sir Gauss Magnusson Memorial New Brewer Competition: Sir Gauss was known
for his love of brewing and his dedication to helping new brewer's start in
the craft. This competition celebrates his life and offers rewards to those
new brewers who know and execute their craft the best. Entrants must have
been brewing for less than one year or have never entered a previous brewing
competition with any beverage. Judging will be done based on the Kingdom
Brewer competition score sheet and rubric. The emphasis will be to provide
judges responses that are useful to the brewer; we want to help you improve
your brew (if needed), not just point out flaws. Entrants may provide up to
two entries in each of three categories; 1) Beer and Ales; 2) Wines and
Meads; 3) Other (syrups, skanjabeen, vinegar, etc.). The highest scoring
individual entry will be declared the winner. Entries need to be at the
judging tent before Noon on Saturday. Bottles should be labeled with the
brewer's name & contents. Judging will commence at 1PM and the populace is
welcome to observe.

 

Please contact me directly with any questions.
