Hear ye! Hear ye!
The Dukes of Ale, New Mexicos merriest band of homebrewers, hereby proclaims the
inauguration of the Enchanted Brewing Challenge. The EBC is open to all brewers
on planet earth and offers an amateur division for all BJCP styles, as well as a
pro brewer free-for-all with an annual theme. This years theme is Radical
Brewing in the spirit of Randy Moshers book celebrating creativity in brewing.
Homebrewers may enter their unconventional concoctions in Category 23 for a
chance at a special prize. Pro brewers may enter the Radical Beer Open. Things
you should know:
o Saturday, April 29 Judging Seminar (competition protocol for beginners)
o Friday, May 5 Entry Deadline ($6 each, late entries will be consumed but
not judged)
o Saturday, May 6 Off-flavor Training Session (and entry check-in party)
o May 15-21 Craft Beer Week (discover New Mexico craft beers!)
o Friday & Saturday, May 19 & 20 Judging Sessions (judges and stewards
needed!)
o Sunday, May 21 Radical Post-Competition Party (for judges, stewards and
special guests only - rub elbows with well-known radical brewers and help
drink the leftover entries)
For all the Radical details, including entry mail-in directions, drop-off
locations, how to be a judge or steward, lodging and maps, and who to contact for
everything else, visit www.nmbeer.org or drop a line to brewer(a)nmbeer.org .
