Competition results
A couple weeks ago I put 4 of my beers into a small homebrew competition at a local beer and wine festival. The judging was last weekend, and I finally got my score sheets. To say I was surprised is an understatement!
All scored in the high-30s to low 40s, with one taking 3rd place overall and the other taking BOS.
Now I get to brew my BOS Baltic Porter on a production scale at Mickey Finn's Brewery in Libertyville IL, probably sometime in October!

Re: Competition results
Nice work. Will you be using your nice setup to brew the Baltic Porter? Or using their larger production gear?
Re: Competition results
Oh, it's gonna be quite a bit larger than my little brewery I think they have a 10 bbl brewhouse. The beer we're brewing will be served at a fundraiser for a local community center - it's all for a great cause!Photon Brewing wrote:Nice work.

I have to say that The Borg is largely responsible for helping me grow as a brewer - I would not be where I am now without the advice of my mentors!

Re: Competition results
I agree, the knowledge and the confidence I got (get) from the borg is a huge help. You can get answers faster than calling 911.
