Single Hop Competition

We tried this once before with Styrian Goldings (Vinnie Cilurzo's favorite hop). This time we are going in a different direction – you pick the hop! Brew it in the style of an American Pale Ale, English Pale Ale, American IPA or English IPA. Hop it judiciously. This will be a great beer for fall . . . so get those kettles boiling and have it ready for September.

The same competition rules apply as always:

The beer must be ready to drink by the September 2007 BFD meeting. It must be labelled with the brewer’s name and submitted in one of the following containers: 2 12 oz. bottles, 1 22 oz. bottle, or 1 container with at least 22 ounces of beer (i.e. growler, plastic soda bottle, etc.).

Contact any of the members of the Competition Committee (Todd, Phil, Billy, or Mary) if you have any questions.
