According to the 2008 style guidelines the following beers do not fit the COC as listed by AHA, because the maximum OG for the subcategory is less than 1.080.

16C: Siason OG 1.048-1.065
16D: Bière de Garde OG 1.060-1.080
Is your beer intimate, hand crafted, and artisanally made?

At last month's Club Meeting I misspoke when I announced that each member could enter a maximum of 2 entries per COC.

That statement was not correct, at the Officer’s Meeting it was agreed that each member will be allow to enter up to 3 entries per COC, however only 1 entry per sub-category (no double entries).

I regret any confusion my statements may have caused.

I have forgotten to bring the score sheets to the last few club events. I will bring yours up to the BBO judging this weekend.
