Blue Ribbon!

So it’s official.  I just got an email forwarded to me by a member of the BURP listserve…my American IPA that I’ve labeled Hop Dog IPA just took home the blue ribbon for a first place in the April homebrew competition.  Pretty good start for my first competition, no?  All the results are available online, just hit up the BURP competition link and scroll down to “8 Apr”.  There were 15 entries in 13 different style categories, just to give you an idea of the competition.  Evidently I can now enter the AHA extract competition, which I have no clue about.  Pretty cool though.  I just hope I have enough of it left to enter the competitions AND have some for myself!
