July Competition - Freestyle

[strange-steve]

Well here we are in July already which means a new competition category. This month is Freestyle which means anything goes, whatever you've got send it in

I have the pleasure of judging this one and I'll be getting a few mates round to help, ranging from some craft beer snobs to those who know nothing about the beer "scene" but know what they like, which should hopefully get some differering perspectives.

Judging date hasn't been confirmed as yet, but it'll be either the 3rd or 10th of August, I'll update this when confirmed. Also there will be a small prize for the winner (and possibly for 2nd and 3rd place depending on entry numbers ) so get your entries in!

If you'd like to enter then let me know by posting here or by PM and I'll give you the address.

Oh and if this is your first time then don't be shy, all feedback will be sent via PM and so won't be made public.

If my bipa isn't ready for the June comp I will send it in for this. Tempted to send it in for review outside of the comp.

 

[Oneflewover]

I'll see if I've got something worthy!

 

[An Ankoù]

Yes please, Steve, I've got a nice red IPA that won't do you any good at all.
And a wandering pilgrim to take it back over the Channel for me in about two weeks' time.

 

[Gulpitdarn]

Ping me your address Steve and I'll get a bottle of my BIPA over to you. I'll enter into the June competition too but would be interesting to get some side-by-side feedback on the beer.

I’ve got something a bit different that I’d hoped to get into this but I’m having a little carbonation trouble. Hopefully it turns out ok and I can enter right near the end of the month.

First bottle received today but there's no note or label so I don't know who sent it. It has this pretty cap on it though:

These guys. Got a bulk batch, used their designer thingy and hey presto.

I rarely bottle but it's a nice touch

Ok @strange-steve I'd like to give it a go this month. Can't decide what to enter currently (I'm in the unusual-for-me position of having three batches bottled and ready to drink, ESB, IPA and an Export Stout) but if you can PM me your address I'll make a decision and get something in the post next week!

 

[strange-steve]

PM sent.

Also recieved @Gulpitdarn's entry this morning
