The Pub
1

This should make things faster.

It is April 1, you know.  8)

2

Finally accuracy in scoreing.

3

I have gained a new respect for the BJCP.

4

Finally, BJCP has accepted reality!

5

Now we should be able to get more entries from people who feel the BJCP guidelines are too strict

6

I don’t understand why the score isn’t simply the number of minutes a judge would stand in line to buy a bottle of the entry.

7

I think a goatee should be worth a couple of points.

8

And/Or is a woman

Best part

9

Let’s make our own! :
-5 You actually want a second one.

10

Recipe came from BCS = -50
Recipe is within an ounce of BCS = +50

11

This!

12

Probably lots of others, but a quick google search turned up these to go along with the new score sheet

In case anyone is looking for that new sheet. :wink:

14

April 2nd, boom, gone!

Thanks for saving that one, Mike.

15

I think a beer brewed by a female brewer with a full beard should be worth more than 10 points.  :slight_smile:

Because it would be too easy to fake Master level patience?

I realize this is an old thread, so that may explain why when I clicked on the new scoresheet it said “document expired.”
  I hope this isn’t that %$#@! NHC score sheet. IMO it’s an abomination that equals check off or circle scoring/judging. A good portion of the brews I judge simply don’t fall into what you check, or not, then I’m supposed to circle if inappropriate? Judges don’t need to be jumping through hoops, they need to be seriously considering an entry. And, from what I’ve seen, those judges who could care less, who may be just there to drink, skip though them.
  It solves nothing.
  Otherwise, not sure what “new” sheet you’re referring to, since “expired.”
  Here’s my take on BJCP sheets.

The AWOG sheet I have taken and adapted for my own competition: The Old Forge BIG Beer and Odd Ale Competition.

It was just an attempt at humor Ken.  One which I enjoyed!

19

Ken, what it solves is the NHC  final round taking too ling and bankrupting the AHA!  Seriously, if you had judged final round in Orlando before the sheet came about, you’d fully understand.  Plus, the checkboxes don’t prevent you from writing any comments you;d write anyway.

20

I’m not a total fan of the check list but in big events they really are necessary for time reasons. Though that probably depends on the judge. Given that the check list is pretty abriviated, I think I could write out a few one or two word descriptors just as quickly as I can read through the check list to pick the right ones.

I’d like to see judges get back to describing the bottle. When you enter a big dark malty beer and the judge dings it for being too pale, too hoppy, and too sour… it would help if they described the bottle.  If yours were brown long necks with black caps, but they wrote green caps, it might explain the issue.
