Judging

Beers will be judged against The Beerfest 2008 Style Guidelines (see Style Guidelines section). Judging will be by blind tasting by a panel of 3 judges (a mix of judges from different Clubs/in dependant brewers whenever possible). Judges decision will be final.

A copy of the Judging Score sheet to be used at Beerfest 2010 is available here.

Categories exceeding 30 entries may be judged in two flights using different judges. Flights will be approximately 3 hours in duration.

Completed judging sheets will be returned to entrants by approximately the end of March 2010.
