Event:

This is an AHA/BJCP sanctioned competition targeted at MS homebrewers. The primary goal of this competition is to encourage closer ties between all MS homebrewers. We are a small group and need to work together to advance craft beer and homebrewing in our state. Since a major goal of this competition is to foster closer ties among brewers, attendance is encouraged; however, entries may also be shipped. There will be a brewer’s party with BBQ by Squealgood while the judging takes place.

This competition will be limited to Category 10 (American Ale) & Category 13 (Stout). Judges may not serve on a category they have entered.

Entry fee is $5 per entry.

Two, 12-14 oz, brown or green bottles free of labels or other identifying marks per entry is required. Fill out one bottle identification form (http://www.bjcp.org/docs/SCP_BottleID.pdf) per bottle and attach using a rubber band.
