2016 AHA Homebrew Competition

Post by BlackDuck »

:banana: :banana: I'm advancing to the final round!! :banana: :banana:
I entered the Simply Simarillo Session IPA into the competition and just received word that it will be advancing to the final round this June. Holy cow, I never thought it would do that well. It was judged in Nashville region for the first round and took 2nd place. It was entered into Category 17; India Pale Ale, subset C which is Specialty IPA as a session strength American IPA. There were a total of 43 entries in that category. I am super stoked. I can't believe it did that well.

I don't want to know what your mouth did in Asheville. That's just gross.


Chris, any idea how many beers make it to the final round? Not that it matters. You could come in last there and you should still be proud.
