Damn...3 bottles for each entry...you people must be getting a cut from Canada post lol...if I can find a mule to get these there I'll put in...no if not. Too close to Christmas for that kind of spending

You can send 2 bottles it says, but if you do, and they drank both already, then you won't be represented in the BOS round.

That would suck lol...make it to bos and no beer there lol

Or maybe I'll just have a party with them instead It's been a hard year of competing and I'm ready to quit any time soon.

It's gotta be expensive to ship 75 bottles of beer half way across the country lol...may be cheaper to book a flight and travel with them lol

Better pack extra if you are going this route or you may not end up with 3 of each left

They don't call you the mad doctor for nothing!

That's rigtt

Mark, there's a category or two you missed! Were you slacking off over the summer? Quite an impressive lineup.

Sorry Derek Sir! was a bit slack this summer.

We're all a bit mad when it comes to brewing & beer.

The usual Brewnoser method is to send them in the back of Chalmers' van.

I can dig that

Wish I could help this time. Best of luck brewers!

Mark if all these beers place you may have a chance to take 1st if he doesn't enter due to the lead. GL

Thanks Keith but not a chance. I chat to Jared and the other's on Twitter regularly. He's on it! BTW; Jared says he has "almost decided" to do this again next year. He's collected a group of investors/partners (one of them is a yeast fanatic with a yeast bank!) and they are starting up a brewery in Winnipeg called "Torque Brewing."

Limit of only five entries for this one. I'm sending in some new beers that need medals and some old ones that don't.

5 paddles has no entry limit i'm pretty sure. Unless they changed it. I had 6 to send including 2 first timers

Oh yes! I was thinking about MALT.

Its annoying that MALT changed their deadline. My beer have been there for some time now.

Big packing weekend for this one. The last comp of the year! Then can relax ...with a nice cup of tea maybe.

@Mark. Don't you have a bitter called "The Bitter End"? are you sending to this one? Be funny if it won the final comp.

I didn't pack at the weekend. I was worried if I sent on Monday the beer might end up sitting in a warehouse somewhere on the veterans day holiday today (I am thinking of my Dad today who fought in WW2, missing him).

Any way! Today's a huge pack (deadline Friday) or I'll be up the creek without 5 paddles. Last BOTY comp ...The Bitter End.
