Welcome back for another year! It is with great pleasure that The Boston Wort Processors present the 17th Annual Boston Homebrew Competition. This year's competition follows in the fine tradition of brewing and judging that has been proven at our previous competitions. This competition attracts entries from many of the best brewers not only in New England but across the country and is judged by many of the founding members of the Beer Judge Certification Program. We look forward to your participation this year!
The competition will take place on Saturday, February 25, 2012
IMPORTANT
There are two important changes from previous years:
- This year we will only accept online entries.
- Bottles must have the official entry labels (printed as part of the online entry process) attached to them
All other entries will be disqualified!
This is a BJCP Registered/Sanctioned event and we will be judging all 28 BJCP 2008 Styles for this competition!
We are using the 2008 BJCP style guidelines. Please refer to http://www.bjcp.org/stylecenter.php to check the latest style descriptions and numbers. Entries will not be reclassified by judges so be sure to enter your beer/cider/mead in the proper category/subcategory.
We are accepting entries in all Beer categories as well as Ciders and Meads. Ciders and Meads will not be included in the Best of Show flight
Update: The gracious folks at Idle Hands Craft Ales have offered to let the winner of Category 16 or 18 (decided by the founder / head brewer) to help out brewing a batch of the winning beer at the brewery. All proceeds from sales of the winning beer will be donated to a charity of choice. *Brewing of the beer will be up to the discretion of the brewery and particpation in a regular Idle Hands Craft Ales brew day or a sack of malt will be donated in lieu of the winning beer not being a viable option
