Entry Acceptance Rules

Number of Bottles Required Per Entry: 2

Each entry will consist of two bottles, or cans, of between 330-500mL

330mL or 500mL brown glass bottles are preferred; however, green and clear glass will be accepted. PET and swing top bottles will likewise be accepted.

Bottles will not be returned to contest entrants.

One bottle/can will be judged in the first round. A second, fresh, bottle will be judged if the beer progresses to Best of Show.

Labelling Bottles and Cans: Print out an entry label from this site and then attach to each bottle/can WITH CLEAR PACKING TAPE or SELLOTAPE covering the entire label.

No other label or identifiable information should be present. All requisite paperwork must be submitted with each entry and can be printed directly from this website. 

Be meticulous about noting any special ingredients that must be specified on the entry system where required. Failure to note such ingredients may impact the judges' scoring of your entry.

Entries not recieved by the shipping deadline date will not be entered into the competition. However we will endeavour to judge them at a later date and provided written feedback.
