Wasn't expecting this to be in the brewer of the year, but got some down there this week. Arrived today.

Did anyone else send?

Sounds promising. I never figured out "too green". I know when beer is too old though.

Just in this case the beer isn't crystal clear. Where they are all low ABV beers i find they don't really need to be aged at all after the yeast completely drops out. I used gelatin to speed the process up as i normally do but for some reason it didn't have the quick impact it normally does.

Can this be right? only 55 entries. They'll maybe just have a couple of sections.
Thanks and Good Luck To All Who Entered the Mountain View Homebrew Open!

There are 55 logged and received entries and 60 registered participants, judges, and stewards.

Thanks, I think some of my beers might be competing against each other. I think it's supposed to be for the brewer students at the college to learn judging. Could be wild.

Mine got paid ok. Not sure if anyone else entered this one. You could also phone them if you don't hear back. Sounds like it should be ok though. Dave Mozel seems to be the one in charge.

A three fold increase, that is a huge jump likely from everyone realizing it was on the circuit this year.

Yes. Who moved the finish line? I thought we would be one step ahead there. Foiled at the last minute.

Don't forget his Bronze in the light Hybrid. Nice to see you take 2/3 medals in the same category.

Looks like Amarillo written on the bag. Maybe 14.5oz or 40-ish grams.

But since they didn't come in a nitrogen-flushed hermetically-sealed bag from Hop Union I'm guessing Mark's going to be nervous about using them... :lol:
