10 tap keggerator bru ha ha brought 3 50lt kegs others brought jockey boxes or wheely bins rigged up with plate chillers so heaps of beer heaps of veriety.
i actually judged this year scores were valid judged on mead/cider/ wild -brett/lambic/sour beer table so a great introduction to this funky side of beer and man i need to brew mead now we had some awesome examples one blueberry mead was just spectacular and i ended up hunting it down latter in night to really savour it that got a 44 best on table. a barleywine won the day with 45. something.
awesome learning experience comparing beer notes woth the bjcp table judge hunting down differnt aromas and flavours gives me a deeper insite into my own beer to help identify certain flaws that i wouldnt of picked out having not been walked through that proces of identifying it.
also getting to rub shoulders with hombrewers who have just recently dove in the deep end and are now brewing for a living at local craft joints was good too.
looking forward to september for state now i wont miss it this year!
oh and we kicked a fair few of them kegs last night.
