Also, What's BCJP?

Bear Judge Certification Program (I think).

I'm training up for the NSP (Newfangled Scale Program). It seems like a much easier option. I'm hoping eventually to get a badge depicting a drunken sailor on the Bluenose, waving a bottle of mild ale.

-1 Tastes like piss
-2 You're trying to poison me (a Nash quote)
-3 Tastes flying bats pee (an old northern English expression)
-4 Really putrid
-5 This is warm Coors Light
Regarding # -5: their entire advertising campaign is based on the beer being "cold"!!! I hadn't had one for years, so I had one the other day, just for the hell of it (and it was hell), outside a pub that didn't have any proper beer, and it warmed up in the sun. # -5 is the only one I'm confident that is correct in the minus scores.

The scale could keep going down for sure

minus X - Every time I take a sip, my soul dies a little more
minus XX - The nose of a llama's arse and the mouthfeel of a hobo's scrotum

The list could go on and on, but I think we should be striving for the positive side of the scale

positive X - magically delicious
positive XX - An angel just climaxed in my mouth

I uh, kind of just want to brew with everyone. Is there a lot of home brew trading that goes on? Is that what happens at these meetings?

Absolutely! Folks are happy to trade beer, for lots of reasons: very happy with it, and want to share the love; something's not quite right, and would like some assistance improving it.

Our monthly meetings are a combination of homebrew and interesting commercial beers (beer from away, or special ones probably not found at the NSLC). Bringing beer to a meeting (or to Hoptoberfest, next Saturday, look in the Events section for some details on that) is a great way to get unbiased opinions on it, and some help on improving it.

Welcome to the site.
