However, it could be argued that everyone was a winner. The sausages, bread and pickles were delicious.
The venue was great. Colin Marshall did a great job of judging. Also everyone got to taste the beer and see the judging process and talk to other brewers.
Last year I did quite poorly in the results, as my beer was brewed too hot. This year's entry was brewed cooler and I won equal first in that section. So personally this was very rewarding.
Also rewarding was the enthusiastic attendance and participation. Old and new faces turned up and had a great time. Looking forward to next year's event.
