What are you entering into The Longshot Competition?

[TapItGood]

I was thinking of a Cali-Belgique with Nelson Sauvin and a touch of oak chips...

Leipziger Gose. I just pulled a sample out of the carboy and tastes quite nice. Good luck everyone!

I was hoping to enter my imperial foreign stout, but I think the gravity is to high SG 1.100. Does any one know about that?

Ale:

· Fermentation Temperature: 65 - 70 ºF

note - those rules (which were there in 2009,2008,2007 as well) wouldn't allow the Barleywine (9.8%) and Old Ale (9%) that are in the current Longshot pack

If you're worried about it, and have more than 3 beers to send (the limit is 3 entries), then send something else. But if you wouldn't send something in place of the Imperial Foreign Stout, then I would send it, let them make the decision if it's 'too big', plenty of big beers that were outside the range listed on the rules have won before.

I'm entering a rye pale ale that recently got a 44 and a 45 at some competitions here in Colorado. Hoping that I might have a shot at a spot in the six pack for a new touch on a very familiar style. No real hopes or expectations of winning, but who knows?

Enter it...That's why it's called The Longshot competition!
