Awesome job Andy! Congrats :mebeer:
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Holy Fuck! Yes, that's my beer! I didn't even know - I was in Moncton all day & never checked the CABA site today. :mrgreen:

Oddly enough, I entered the weizen on a whim to get the judging sheets. I expected the Best Bitter I entered to be the one to place - it'll be interesting to see how that got scored. I also entered a 2 year old cider.

:pow:

I'll see if I can squirrel away a couple bottles for the July meeting. Its a little undercarbed for the style as I'm Nash will agree, but as the name of the beer implies - "Wifey's Wheat" - I brewed it for her & she likes her beer slightly undercarbed.

Might have taken the Gold otherwise... :lol:
