Well, despite the fact that they lost my entries last year (but still cashed my check -- and probably SOMEONE drank my beer ), I'm still going to post this one...

+1 when are you dropping off? I want to see if my sorachi wheat will be good/ready in time so I'll probably be going on the 7th or 8th.
I still haven't gotten the request for judges for this one, but I'll probably sign up for at least one day of judging.
The 7th or 8th are both fine with me. LA County Fair judging is on the 8th, so if I drop off that day, it will be later in the day. I already bottled most of my beers. The only one I will probably enter that I haven't bottled yet is the Blonde Ale.

I'm planning on heading over there on the 8th to drop off my entries if anyone wants to meet up or would prefer to drop off your entries in Tustin rather than Corona.
Oh, and bwarbiany, I'm entering the Imp. Milk Stout under our names. I may end up listing your name as primary brewer if I enter something else in 23 also.

It's hard to say. In my opinion it's definitely a better fit in 23 because it's way too sweet to be in 13F. Other judges may see it differently, or if the competition wasn't as good in 13 it might do better there. It's tempting to enter it in both categories.

BTW - what categories are you entering? It could save me the $6 entry fee!

I'm only entering three beers (because I'm lazy). Brown Porter, American Pale Ale, and Munich Helles. I don't think I have anything else bottled.

Not sure how either will do. The 16E is the Belgian Patersbier (you guys may have had it at SCHF), which is a good beer but it's likely to be a bit "small" compared to the rest of 16E. 28C is my Apfelwein, and I've never competed in Cider, nor tasted a homemade cider from any other brewer, so I have *no* clue what to expect as far as how I stack up against competition.
