A video about the judging was posted on YouTube this weekend, but results still have not been announced. I'm officially on pins and needles at this point...

Sadly, I must report than I did not win. Looks like it was the oatmeal stout...

Thanks guys.. I wish I had enough of the beer to send to Longshot, too, but SA asked me for 10 more bottles (!) for that final round. I think they just had a big party with the finalists' beer.

You're probably right, but congrats! That's quite an accomplishment!
