We got the email, but it is still unclear when the entries are due? Maybe Orlando is worried his entry might not stand up!!!!

I am always worried that my entry won't stand up but then I am getting on in age.

The September/October 2008, ?Imperial Anything? entries are due at Homebrew Headquarters by Friday October 3rd before 1pm. Judging will take place Sat or Sun.

We still need Judges, so if you can help out please contact me.

This competition covers any beer style that has been imperialized. Entries will be judged to BJCP Category 23 Specialty Beer, so entrants must include information about what they have done. The competition is not about the biggest beer, it is about a bigger beer done right.

Each entry should use a AHA/BJCP Bottle ID form: http://www.bjcp.org/docs/SCP_BottleID.pdf

Include the following with your entry:
MAY specify the base beer style
MUST state the original gravity (OG), and final gravity (FG),
MUST state the type of imperialization (ABV, IBU, etc.).

Note: Beer styles that are imperial by nature (Dopplebock, Eisbock, Strong Scotch Ale, Russian Imperial Stout, Imperial IPA, Belgian Dark Strong Ales, and English and American Barleywines) MUST have OG = 1.100 or greater, and ABV = 10% or greater.

Only one (1) 10-14 oz. green or brown bottles are required for each entry.
