Entered!

Would love to steward, but I'll be on holiday this time. Will try and keep myself free for next year though.

How did anyone else do?

No medals for me but I got 34 for my American Porter (very happy with that), but only 24 for my English Porter. Looking forward to getting the feedback.

I got 1st place (43 points) for my blonde ale and 26 for my experimental bitter (brewed with T-58). I sent them off just for some feedback, I still can't quite believe the 1st! :shock:
