Rules
Wee County Brewers are running a British beers based brewing competition in conjunction with Brehon Brewhouse and the National Homebrew Club in Mo Chara on 23rd November 2024.
Think English, Scottish and British styles, malty sweet, light and heavy beers - we're looking for them all!
The Wee County Brewers 'The Great British Brew Off' Competition is a Beer Judge Certification (BJCP) sanctioned competition.
Brehon Brewhouse will brew the winning beer
This competition is open to any amateur homebrewer, worldwide, age 18 or older.
All entries must be received at the drop off location (either by shipping or in person) by the drop-off deadline.
All entries must be handcrafted products, containing ingredients available to the general public, and made using private equipment by hobbyist brewers (i.e., no use of commercial facilities or Brew on Premises operations, supplies, etc.).
The competition organizers are not responsible for mis-categorized entries, mailed entries that are not received by the entry deadline, or entries that arrived damaged.
The competition organizers reserve the right to combine styles for judging and to restructure awards as needed depending upon the quantity and quality of entries.
Qualified judging of all entries is the primary goal of our event. Judges will evaluate and score each entry. The average of the scores will rank each entry in its category. Each flight will have at least one BJCP judge.
Brewers are not limited to one entry in each category but may only enter each subcategory once.
The competition committee reserves the right to combine overall style categories based on number of entries. All possible effort will be made to combine similar styles. All brews in combined categories will be judged according to the style they were originally entered in.
The Best of Show judging will be determined by a Best of Show panel based on a second judging of the top winners.
