2013 Cactus Challenge

Post by ejonsson »

The Cactus Challenge, hosted by The Ale-ian Society, in Lubbock, is coming up in a couple of months. This competition covers all BJCP categories, and includes a special Area 51 category, for most unusual ingredient.

The following dates have been announced.

Entry Date: Aug 1 - Aug 24
1st Round Judging: Aug 30-31, Sept 6-7, Sept 13-14 (if necessary)
Final Round Judging: Sept 28
Event: Sept 27-28
Awards Ceremony: Sept 28

Location:

Ashmore Inn & Suites
4019 South Loop 289 at Quaker
Lubbock, Texas 79423

All Cactus Challenge activities will be held in the Biltmore Room of the Ashmore Inn & Suites

This competition is right on the heels of The Limbo. I expect we will have a good showing in The Limbo, and gain some ground in The Lone Star Circuit, on BAM and The Zealots. With the Cactus, we have a chance to gain more ground, so it would be nice if we were well represented.

I will arrange transportation of the club's entries to Lubbock. Since the deadline comes during the Limbo dates, this may be a shipment, rather than a drive, I will keep the club posted.
