Remember my Hoppy Head indian IPA

May 10, 2005 6 Replies

Hey about 5 months ago I brewed an English IPA (my Hoppy Head Indian IPA) and I said that I had brewed it to enter in competitions and I was gonna win with it. Not sure, but as I recall there were a few sharp comments. Well, I entered it in the Nationals (even though it is an extract recipe). I just wanted the judge's comments, but guess what happened. I took first place in my region (sent it into Houston) and there were 25 beers in that catagory. So it is on to the next level. I don't stand a snowballs chance, but I am very excited and pleased the judges appreciaded my efforts. It is ashame I only have about 5 bottles left. :^(



Just Brew It! Johnny Mc P.S. Sorry I have not read or posted in a while, new job, long hours...... I will try to get back into the groove.
