Attached you will find the Bottle ID forms that you will use when submitting your entries.

Be sure to enter your Name, Name of Beer, Category Entered, Subcategory Entered; and temporarily attach the label to your bottles with a rubber band. These labels are removed by the stewards when your beer is judged.

Just posting this empty reply to boost attention to the Marzen results and the final results for Homebrewer of the Year. It seems my edit last week did not make the post visible as a change or new post.

Congratulations to Randy Carris for winning the 2017 Homebrewer of the Year tap handle.

So, what were the results of the Marzen comp?

My apologies Pat. I did enter those last week, but I must have not closed out the reply properly and the update was lost.

The results are now in the lead post.

A big thanks to Daryl for his work organizing these comps! Thanks also to all of the judges and stewards for the difficult task of evaluating the entries. Finally, thanks to my fellow brewers for the challenging competition. To say I'm surprised and humbled is an understatement. It only took me 7 years to win! Here's to 2018!
