School me on what's required to enter this?
-4 bottles of beer
-Pay entry fee
What information do I have to submit? Recipe? Category I'm entering?
Anyone else still thinking about entering this?

Register online, and enter your beers there. It'll ask for the category, and depending on that, it may ask for additional information (specialty beers, fruit beers, alternative grains, etc.) They you pay, print off your labels, pack it all up and ship it out. I've been bubble wrapping them in shipping boxes from Staples and Fedexing it out a week before with three days shipping.

What did your FedEx shipment cost for this one, and how many bottles were in the box?

I'm sending it out tomorrow, but they usually cost about $10 for every two bottle entry.

Definately will be hard for the judges in the final rounds. 1 entry per category is alot. If I had the time to brew and the extra cash to send off, brew of the year could probably be won in this comp alone if you took the majority of categories.
