I entered 3 beers...
I entered my robust coffee porter in the wrong category and got 32pts but didn't place. I entered it in 23a specialty beer but should have put it into the spiced beer category.
My imperial stout got a whole 18pts... caught me by surprise because its pretty damn clean tasting. However, I used the yeast cake from the coffee porter to ferment it, so some subtle, yet distinct coffee notes come through. Perhaps I should have entered it in the spiced beer category as well. Anxious to see the judging notes on it.
Lastly my Double IPA grabbed 2nd place w/ 40 pts. I'm pretty happy with that
All in all, I just can't wait to read the feedback from the judges.
Congrats to everyone else who entered! Whether you placed or not, the scoresheets will make you a better brewer.
