265 beers subjected to the judging part of the Swedish Championships of home brewed beer, so far.
Registration for almost 4 days remaining, we'll most likely hit well over 300 separate beers this year.
Since each beer is entered in 5 bottles, they'll have 1500+ bottles when they collect them all, or about 500 liters of beer :D

I will take part in the judging again this year of course, but not in the final jury as last year, "only" in the regular rounds. I'll be judging 2 main classes out of the 11 I reckon.
Usually 20 to 40 beers in each class. If we in Göteborg do get a class of 40 it's most likely the only class we'll be judging though, spread out over the two days instead.

So next Saturday and Sunday, 28 and 29 March, I know what I'll do for sure...
9 am each day we start sampling beers, yay :p

yeah I could imagine, so how does it work.. everybody gets a "grade" and the one with the highest wins?
or does it go in rounds.. like the first few go to the next round and get judged again?

We pick out the best three of each class after the first round, the ones with the highest average score from the different judges.

The third one is the bronze medal winner, the best two goes to the final judging where they start from 0 once more.
Here the new judges pick which one is silver and which one is gold.

Also in round 3, from the 11 gold medal winners one is picked to be the years top beer.

Not really.
This competition has nothing to do with how good taste is, it has everything to do with how close can you brew according to a definition.

It's a lot harder, and for me way more boring, to brew according to defenitions, so I rarely do.

I'm also better at brewing more experimental things :p
