While we're on the subject of Club-only competitions, does anyone 
have information on the Stout Bout comp?

Thanks.

Subject: Re: AHA Club-Only comps

While we're commenting on the AHA club-only comps, I'll throw my two
cents in...

I entered a beer in the "Weiss is Nice" club-only comp back in
October...  I have yet to receive any score sheets from this
competition, nor have I seen the results posted here or anywhere.

I emailed the AHA about this last week, and Brian responded (very
promptly, I might add) with a list of the winners, but still no
scoresheets.

I realize that this isn't the first competition that has failed to live
up to it's obligation to return scores promptly to it's entrants, but
one would think that when the AHA sponsors a program like this, they
take some care to assure that the competition is being run properly.  
As it is, I'm out an entry fee and shipping charges, not to mention
three bottles of brew, with nothing to show for it.

Just what does 'AHA sponsored' and 'AHA sanctioned' mean?
