For almost two decades the most well known name in mead competitions has been the Mazer Cup. Created by Ken Schramm (author of “The Compleat Meadmaker”), Dan McConnell and Mike O‘Brien, the annual event quickly became the world’s best recognized and most prestigious mead competition. Even though the Mazer Cup competitions have not been held for the past few years, there has never been a more widely recognized event in the mead community. After a tremendously successful competition in 2009, and continued support from the Mazer Cup founding fathers, Ken Schramm, Dan McConnell and Mike O'Brien, Gotmead.com is happy and excited to sponsor the Mazer Cup International 2010. We will do our best to continue the tradition of the original competition, and work to make it the best competition possible. We are committed to bringing the best judges available to Boulder, Colorado from North America, Europe and wherever else mead is held in high regard. The Mazer Cup International 2010 will again sponsor both Commercial and Home mead competitions the weekend March 26-27, 2009, in Boulder, Colorado. All of the pertinent information including competition rules, entry forms, and the online entry system can be found at the Mazer Cup International website (www.mazercup.com) Entry cutoff will be March 15th 2010. Any questions regarding the event can be directed to Info(a)Mazercup.com and will be answered by one of our staff. Judging for the home competition will be conducted in accordance with the 2008 Revision of the 2004 BJCP Style Guidelines. Judging will be conducted by a prestigious pool of BJCP judges, professional mead makers, and Mead luminaries such as Ken Schramm.
