FAQ
What sort of bottles do I need to use?
Each entry requires 2 bottles containing at least 500ml volume. Other vessels (e.g. cans, plastic bottles) may be used instead of glass bottles, provided the volume requirements are met. Larger bottles (e.g. 2 x 750ml) are fine to enter. Entries consisting of equivalent volumes in different numbers of bottles (e.g. 6 x 330ml, 1 x 1000ml) WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
Can I enter more than one brew?
Yes, but, entrants are restricted to a maximum of 1 entry per style, with a total of 6 bottles (2 bottles, cans, or other per style).
Can I enter any European beer?
Entries will be sorted into award/judging categories by style, according to the 2021 BJCP guidelines. Entries must meet the entry requirements of Belgian, German, or English, or Guest styles as per the entry registration form; any other BJCP 2021 style not listed will not be accepted.
Styles Restricted to: Czech Pale Lager, Czech Premium Pale Lager, Czech Amber, Czech Dark, German Kölsch, German Pils, German Helles, German Doppelbock, German Schwarzbier, German Altbier, Belgian Blond Ale, Belgian Single, Belgian Saison, Belgian Dark.
I am a commercial Brewer, can I still enter?
Commercial brewers may enter; however, the beer must be made entirely at home using commonly available home-brewing ingredients, processes, and equipment. Kit beers, fresh wort kits, and brew-on-premises beers are fine to enter. Commercial brewers and competition staff/organizers may enter and win awards but are ineligible for any award prizes or spot prizes. Prizes will be given to the runner-up in these cases. Judges may enter and may win awards and prizes.
