Well done to all who entered at such short notice.  It was a great night for the few who made it to the judging.  Cascade Brewery kindly opened the bar for us and kept the food platters coming.   Congrats to the winner who walked away with a trophy and $100 to spend at Tas Home Brewing and to the runners up who walked away with $50 to spend at Tas Home Brew.  Cascade were highly impressed by all the brews entered and were keen to stay around and talk 'beer' with the entrants.  We extend a big thanks to the 5 judges from Cascade and Matilda Bay Brewery.

Start squirreling away some of your favourite Cascade brew for the next competition in January, so keep your eyes on this site for the next date.
