Competition Rules
Entry Eligibility
- Contest is open only to amateur home brewers that are active members in good standing of a participating club. Professional brewers, even if club members, are not eligible.
Entry Registration
- You may register your entry by selecting a competition from our home page and completing the form.
- Only one entry allowed per person per competition. In the case of multiple entries by a person, HRBC staff will select one of the entries at random for official judging.
Deadline for Entry Registration
- Online entry and registration form will be available between opening and closing registration dates noted for each competition (generally the first day of the month of the competition through the Sunday prior to the competition date).
- Entry registration must be received within the opening and closing times and dates specified. Entries received after will not be considered.
Bottle Submission
- Entrants must submit two (2) 12 or 22 ounce bottles, and caps must be plain or blacked out to hide identifying features
- Entries will be judged based on the information on the bottle label. It is incumbent on the entrant to label bottles completely, accurately and in accordance with the BJCP 2021 Style Guidelines. Failure to do so may result in disqualification or inaccurate judging.
- Bottles may be dropped off at Brew & Bottle, LLC in Newport News or any other spot designated for that particular competition no later than Noon on Saturday before the following Wednesday’s judging, or brought to the competition site the night of the competition. This ensures the HRBC staff has the opportunity to collect and mark bottles. Please note it’s your responsibility to get the bottle to the competition site and HRBC is not responsible for entries that don’t arrive to the competition.
- Submissions become the property of the HRBC however, should an entrant wish to collect an unused second bottle, it is the entrant’s responsibility to collect the unused bottle.
Judging
- The BJCP 2021 Style Guidelines will be used for judging. Some special and “favorite beer” competitions may use alternative guidleines.
- Judging will be done based on the style information provided on the bottle label.
- Categories may be combined or separated depending on number of entries and judges available.
- BJCP score sheets will be used and all official entries will receive comments on their entries.
- These competitions individually and as a whole are not officially sanctioned by the BJCP, so no BJCP points will be given.
- Judges decisions are final.
Scoring and Points
Updated for 2024 and forward
- A Brewer must enter at least 4 of the six competitions to be eligible for the HRBC trophy.
- All participants will be awarded one (1) point for entering (online entry and bottles required to collect entry point).
- An additional two (2) points will be awarded for entries selected (pushed) to compete in the Mini Best of Show.
- Overall First, Second and Third place finishers, as determined by the Mini Best in Show, will receive an additional eight (8) points for first, five (5) points for second, and three (3) points for third.
- Points will be cumulative for each individual during the competition year with an annual, overall winner being determined by the entrant with the most points after the final competition.
- There can be only one HRBC winner. Should the points produce multiple first place overall winners for the season, the following tie-break methods will be used in the following order:
- Brewer with most First Place wins in Mini-BOSes.
- Brewer with most “places” (first, second, or third) in Mini-BOSes.
- Winning club will be calculated by adding all of the points awarded to its individual members for the year. Club with the greatest total will be deemed winner. If more than one club has the same total for most points, it will be declared a tie.
Scoresheets
- Scoresheets will be available to entrants for pickup upon completion of event.
- Entrants are responsible for getting their scoresheets at the event, or arranging with an attending club representative to pick them up at the event.
- Should any scoresheets not be collected by the entrant or a representative at the event, it is up to the entrant to arrange pickup of the scoresheet.
Other Information
- Should date, times, or location need to be changed, the changes will be noted on the HRBC Web Page as well as member clubs’ pages and/or social media..
- We encourage members of all the member clubs to attend and learn/teach others about judging and stewarding.
