They increased the entry limit to 6 this morning.
Reminder: If you are planning to bring me bottles by Saturday, please let me know. Rappel : Si vous prévoyez me rapporter des bouteilles d’ici samedi, veuillez me le faire savoir.
I am planning to send you cans on Friday.
J’irais te porter mes bières vendredi si c’est possible!
The Ottawa folks are still looking for judges if anyone is available. I’ll likely rent a car and I’m happy to give anyone a ride. I can also ask around for a place to stay if anyone is interested.
J’ai une bière à envoyer. Je vais voir si j’ai le temps de passer ce samedi, sinon j’enverrai moi-même!
je serai a la maison samedi. m’envoyer message privée pour telephone et addresse
3 gold and a silver for me. Very happy with the results!
How’d everyone else do? I saw a free MontreAlers up there!
You had very solid beers for that competition Graham, congrats! It seems i didnt send my best flight of entries , but i did get one gold medal with my ‘Huile à Moteur 2026’, a Barrel-aged Imperial Stout, which i am happy about!
My Kolsch did very well but didn’t make it in the mini BOS. My ESB did very well too but this judge with the initials GB wasn’t very generous with his scoring.
This GB judge did easily pick up the oxydation (probable awful levels) in my Ordinary Bitter (i did an experiment trying to bottle directly from my freshly tapped cask on a fishing trip, just for fun
….that cask was damn good fresh!)
Im happy i got very nice, complete and thorough scoresheets from different MontreAlers judges. We have a strong squad of judges!!!
We had some great ESBs! Hopefully I wasn’t too harsh…
Nah. You were fair
Ma bitter a bien fait, 39 pts mais elle n’a pas passé le mini-bos.
Ma cream ale , nixtamilisé, a eu des mauvais commentaires puisqu’elle ne respectait pas le style de base ( style alternative grain beer).. 34/50
Ma pilsner czech, decoction, 25/50
Les juges voulaient que ça soit dans Alternative grain beer au lieu de Cream Ale? Ou est-ce que ça aurait dû être dans Cream Ale et c’était dans Alternative grain beer?
Parce que, de ce que je comprends, Alternative grain beer précise qu’il y a l’utilisation d’un grain différent:
An Alternative Grain Beer is a standard beer (Classic Style
or not) with additional or non-standard brewing grains (e.g.,
rye, oats, buckwheat, spelt, millet, sorghum, rice) added or
used exclusively.
Dans ce cas-ci, c’est plutôt un traitement au grain habituel qui a été fait. Comme si tu utilisais du blé cru dans une Weissbeer (qui devrait comprendre du blé malté pour respecter le Reinheitsgebot. Par contre, si tu utilises de l’épeautre malté dans une Weissbeer, alors là, je mettrais ça dans Alternative grain beer.
Mon avis de juge “junior”
