If anyone is thinking about driving down there for delivery i would definitely chip in some money for gas.

I may try to brew an Pale Ale in time for this.

I have a Strong Ale in the bucket, and I think I might submit it for this Competition. And, I am considering submitting mead too.

AND, I think I might be of a mind to drive down to drop off......but I can't decide for sure until we get closer to the final submission date.

I'm sure at least one of us will be going down to submit.

Does anyone know what the requirements are for mead submission? Is one 375 ml bottle sufficient? Would one 12 oz beer bottle be sufficient?

I could not find on the MUGZ web page that two bottles of beer are required (which is what we stipulate for our own Club Comps).

Does LOTMW require all products to be in crown-capped beer bottles? Or are 375 ml wine bottles accepted for still products like mead?

[daryl]

I can ask, have not received a response from my first question yet.

This is what is posted on their website:

Entry Acceptance Rules
Each entry will consist of 12 to 22 ounce capped bottles or corked bottles that are void of all identifying information, including labels and embossing. Raised glass on bottles are accepted (e.g. New Belgium Bottles or Sam Adams bottles). Printed caps are allowed, but must be blacked out completely.

12oz brown glass bottles are preferred; however, green and clear glass will be accepted. Swing top bottles will likewise be accepted as well as corked bottles.

Bottles will not be returned to contest entrants.

All requisite paperwork must be submitted with each entry and can be printed directly from this website. Entry paperwork should be attached to bottles by the method specified on the bottle label.

Be meticulous about noting any special ingredients that must be specified. Failure to note such ingredients may impact the judges' scoring of your entry.


It is not clear to me as to how many bottles are to be submitted per entry....so is one sufficient?

On the info page under all the categories it says capped, corked, or swing top will be accepted.
