2015 Ohio Brew Week

Post by BlackDuck »

I entered three beers into this year's competition.
Three's a Crowd Cream Ale: Overall score was a 25.5.
Fruit Salad Session IPA: Overall score was a 25.3.

Four Point Pale Ale: Overall score was a 36 and took 2nd place in the category!!! Here's the kicker, I entered this same batch at the Ohio State Fair earlier this year and it scored a 25.5. Big difference. Things that make you go Hhmmm!!

WE.ARE.SO.VERY.PROUD.OF.YOU!
36 is a great score. Wonder what the score was for 1st place.

I bet the first edition of Fruit Salad would have scored big. It was awesome. The 2nd one was good, just not nearly as good as 1.0.
Never give up, never surrender!

NICE! That is a tough category, as so many entries are sent in for the category and to medal says something about the brew, 36 is a nice score, now cant wait to hear how it came out with the water adjustments.
