Six times a year, AHA registered clubs can compete against each other in Club Only Competitions. Each competition focuses on a specific style of beer or mead and each club can send in their best example for judging.
http://www.homebrewersassociation.org/pages/competitions/club-only-competitionsThe Prairie Homebrewing Companions in Fargo are hosting the next Club Only for meads on August 27th. You still have time to send in your club's best mead by the 20th.
We will need help judging the 50+ best meads from around the country that will show up so if you are in Fargo on Saturday August 27th, show up at the AmericInn SE of the I29/13th Ave intersection (1423 35th St SW) around 8:30AM and the judging will start around 9AM.
Our Hoppy Halloween Homebrewing Competition in coming again this October with 500+ entries so we will need judges again on October 28th and 29th so reserve those dates if you can.
