My question would be: Are the Brewers mentioned Home-Brewers or Professional Brewers; actually working in Breweries. Not to stirr anything up, I'm only wondering. Also, maybe David can answer my next question. The BJCP study guide to take the exam is very intensive. I have studied the past available study guides and found that it is leaking lot of "present day" knowledge on Brewing and Malting. Especially on Malting.......... I had offered several times in the past to update the "Malt/Malting" section, but never heared anything back. When I teach students for the BJCP exam, I always update them with the present day knowledge. This are my 2 cents, for whats worth, Fred M.

The Masters Championship of Amateur Brewing (MCAB) is a grassroots amateur brewing championship. The format of the MCAB is a small, invitational "champions' championship". Twelve of the most prestigious local competitions in the United States and Canada have been selected as MCAB Qualifying Events. First place winners in twenty (beer) qualifying styles at each qualifying event receive an invitation to enter the MCAB in that style. MCAB entrants are free to enter any one beer they wish in their qualifying style, including samples from fresh batches brewed specially for the MCAB. This format allows MCAB entrants to brew and submit beers at peak levels of freshness and conditioning, and have their beers judged in small flights by panels of some of the best and most experienced judges in the country. Another goal of the MCAB is to provide an opportunity for the amateur brewing community to congregate for a low cost, yet high-quality technical conference that is produced by amateur brewers, for amateur brewers. Details of the technical conference can be found on the MCAB website (www.hbd.org/mcab). An on-line registration form for the technical conference will be posted in the next few days. Three local homebrew clubs have pooled resources to bring this event to Cleveland and are busily putting the final details together for what is sure to be an exciting weekend of competition and technical presentations. CALL FOR JUDGES Judges are needed for the event. Judging will begin with a single flight on Friday evening (approximately 6:00PM) April 12, 2002 and a second judging session is tentatively scheduled on Saturday morning, April 13. Best of Show judging will take place late Saturday afternoon between the technical conference and the awards banquet Saturday evening. We are hoping for sufficient judge attendance in order to judge as many BJCP styles as possible during the Friday evening session to allow for an expanded slate of technical presentations on Saturday. An on-line Judge Registration form along with full details of the MCAB weekend can be found at the MCAB website (www.hbd.org/mcab). I hope to see you in Cleveland!
