Yes, in its 18th year the good ol'SBR has broken all entry records. But this also means that our current contingent of pledged judges is nowhere near the size needed to be able to address all the added entries. If you're a BJCP judge (or have any beer judging experience) and you can possibly help out this coming Saturday, we'd really appreciate it. And of course, we'll make sure to provide a fine lunch and some choice beers at Emmett's, too. Just drop a line to me or Joe Preiser (joe(a)chibeer.org) to confirm. We know some of you may have family commitments for Halloween, but even if you can only participate for a portion of the day it would be extremely helpful. And if you can't make it, please get the word out to your colleagues. Your fellow homebrewers and judges will really appreciate it.
