10th Annual Palmetto State Brewers' Open Results

December 6 2008
356 Entries

 We have learned that a rules change on the MCAB site for MCAB eligibility that seemed to apply to this year did not apply.  Therefore, where there were multiple flights in the same category (stout for instance) only those beers shaded in yellow will be eligible. These beers won a mini-BOS between the flight winners. All other 1st place winners will be eligible along with one beer not winning a first place. MCAB invites winners in BJCP categories 1-19 and 22 to participate.  Qualifiers will be contacted by MCAB with further information.
