:rockin: Congrats
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Congrats to everyone and all the local Truro Brewnosers! Especially Woody. A great showing and I am not surprised having sampled their beers for years.

Heard back from someone at Murphy Group (Gahan), as I was asking them about t-shirt sizes.

They mentioned the prizes should be available as of Friday to pick up at the location your homebrew was submitted at, and they will be sending out a mass email to participants to confirm the date.

I asked about score-sheets but they didn't mention if those are going to the Gahan locations as well.

I was told the day of the awards they were going to be emailing the results out the following week (just passed). I emailed yesterday to check again but didn't hear back from anyone yet.

Strange, maybe they are just slow to move with these things. They also mentioned some prizes (ie: trophies) were too large to mail and were just sending those back to some of the Gahan locations. Also they will be sending out a mass email to everyone on pickup locations etc at some point this week.

I called them this morning (yes, I was that guy lol) and the woman I spoke to said to email the manager and that she would make sure they checked their messages and get back to me asap. I did that and got a reply not long ago. They are waiting on a couple things (??) before the send them out but I was reassured they will be sent soon.
