129 entries, some very good beers, some not so good beers. Some very surprising beers in the prize round judging. The worst beer (in my opinion) wasnt as bad as the worst beer I judged at BrewNZ this year, the best was phenominal!!

Good one Kieran. Thanks. And I'll bet the entrant who cared least about their homebrew beer, cared as much as the BrewNZ entrant who cared the most.

the best was phenomenal! Wow that's exciting! 'Surprising beers' in the prrize round judging....what do you mean by that? crazy ingredients? random styles? Man this exciting i wonder what the next homebrew to be brewed commercially will be! :0)

Any chance we could have an official word on when their might be some results posted? The SOBA newsletter said "results announced in the first week of October". Does that mean the 1st seven days in October? or this week? I know people are busy, but still it would be nice to know the timeframe?
Cheers
