You may bring all the homebrew/s you like, sharing and tasting is highly encouraged. There are 3 bottles in the entry, 1 for judging, if it gets through to second round of judging then 1 more bottle, then one left for people to try after the winners are announced.

:)
Still time to email your entries in people :)

Couple of quick questions for those attending the competition
1, Are any of you taking bottle swaps ?
2, Who is stopping over for the traditional evening pub crawl and curry ?
Six of us from sunny Lancashire will be over and having breakfast in the local Wetherspoons for about 10am all are welcome ()

Down with relatives in Bingley, and sobering up following the Eldwick event last night, so hoping to muster at least one other to pop over and drop in this afternoon for a jar or two if that's OK as a non competitor?

Thanks for putting it on today. I brought a couple of people and they were both impressed with the quality of homebrew and the wishbone beer on the bar.
Never enough time...

Likewise! Very enjoyable day and good to meet so many other homebrewers. First competition for me so didn't expect anything, but when collecting the comment sheets found I'd come 4th :)

A great turnout for our first competition, nice to see new and old faces, the NCB yeast trial samples were good and glad to see Adrian Steer & Ian Priddy actively promoting it :)
You will all be pleased to know we raised £318 for Charity :)
