BJCP Exam in Halifax - Jan 31, 2015

[CartoonCod]

I'm game for whatever. What time? Closer to 8 pm or later is better for me, once I get the young one to bed

[CartoonCod]

What about Keith's porter night?

[amartin]

Let's say 8:30 then. I'll pm -gm.

[Keith]

Yeah welcome to pop out for the porters and do your think here. I have 3 so far, and am working on a few other samples. Possibly 2-3 more and if you guys have a Porter bring that too.

[amartin]

Hey Keith,

We're in. Can you please pm your address to me, Adam, and gm-?

I have two porters (one beer, two yeasts) to bring along.

Thanks for the link! I also found that looking at examples of score sheets super helpful.

In case anyone is interested, here's a number of links that might be helpful.

Whoa, loads of good info! Thanks fellas!
Here's the page I mentioned at the tasting, it's a grand master beer judge, Gordon Strong, evaluating some classic styles. There are his completed scoresheets and audio, though I can't get the filled scoresheet to display on my iPhone. Works fine on a desktop though.

I'm sure you're all anxious to find out how you fared. Hopefully the process is faster than it was for the last batch.

If you haven't seen the thread about the Brewnosers Homebrew Competition, we're looking for judges, stewards, and staff in May. Even if you haven't received your results you can still judge and earn points.

For those of you who were interested in the exam but weren't able to take it, working as a steward is a great way to experience a competition, get some discussion time with judges, and earn points for when you pass the exam.

[Brewnoser]

FYI they have received everything. Now it's just drink and wait.

I am sitting a written exam on July 12 for anyone who scored over 80 and has at least 10 judging points. Just in case.

It's lonely being the only National this side of Montreal.

"Over 80 ange?"
