Thank you to all who participated in the SCABS 2nd Annual Homebrew Competition. We had 55 entrants who entered a total of 211 beers! I hope everyone values the feedback provided on the score sheets. Thank you to all the judges! They worked very hard to provide as much detailed information as possible. Now onto the awards.

Due the number of beers entered, some categories were collapsed for judging.  Therefore, not all categories have a 1^st, 2^nd, or 3^rd place.  For example, one category may only have a 1^st place award and one category may only have an HM (Honorable Mention).

 And again, thank you to our Sponsors.

BOS (Best of Show) goes to Josef Hudecek for his American Pale Ale. Congratulations!
