Brew Riot Judging:

The People’s Choice Competition is judged by attendees of the festival. All festival participants will receive one vote. The People’s Choice Competition is mandatory for all entrants.

If you want your beer to be apart of the Panel Judging- two (2) 12oz or larger bottles must be labeled and delivered to a designated location by May 08, 2016. Labeling directions and drop off addresses will be emailed to you by May 2, 2016.

Labeling instructions: Please label the beer with your “judging number” (provided upon completing your online registration) on the bottle and cap.
*Since the Brew Riot judges will only be grading the contents of the bottle and not your labeling skills, please just make sure the number is clearly readable.

Acceptable ways to label include:

a) writing your unique brew number on duct tape with permanent marker and place duct tape securely on bottle.
b) label maker printout
please make sure NOT to use ink that smears when wet.
