Southern English Brown Ale (Jeff & Ellen) 2. Wheatwine/Oatwine/Ryewine (Joe Gherlone) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Jeff & Ellen Date: Sat, 14 Jan 2006 11:29:51 -0500 Subject: Southern English Brown Ale I'm going to be presenting a class on Brown Ales in a few weeks and am wondering if anyone can site an available example of a Southern English Brown Ale that I can obtain for sampling. Perhaps someone has made a batch that exemplifies the guidelines or knows of a commercial micro example that I could purchase. I will need about 40 ounces for the class. Jeff Gladish, Tampa ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Joe Gherlone Date: Sat, 14 Jan 2006 17:18:59 -0500 Subject: Wheatwine/Oatwine/Ryewine Folks, Extreme beers are hot right now -- I was just asked what category to use for the non-barley "-wine" style beers. None of them currently have their own style in the guidelines, and the best suggestion I could make was to compete in cat. 23. Does anyone have a better idea/alternate suggestion, and is there any plan to initiate separate subcategories for each of the "-wines"?? Has anyone seen a non-barley -wine compete favorably in any other category?? Thanks, Joe Gherlone BJCP Certified ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ***** Important Subscriber Information ***** To post a message to JudgeNet, send it to judge`at`synchro.com.
