I got 39/50 for my experimental mead that I’ve sent to the last Mazer’s Cup Competition. Is that good? Is there a way to know what was the grade of the winners?
@@DointheMost if you haven't already, you could see if Learn to Brew would be open to letting you having it in their warehouse. I could see partnering with local homebrew shops working out pretty well since your main audience would be their potential customers.
The flavor on it is definitely like a raisin and chocolate type flavor. I can see where the judges would read it as slight oxidizing, similar to a sherry.
I sent one I hadn't tasted since bottling.. I tasted it after I sent it and it was bad. I was going to withdraw it because obviously something had gone wrong but decided to let it ride since I have no idea what a oxygenated mead tastes like and decided this would be a good way to find out. Didn't find out but they tasted the off flavors I tasted also. Of course I have never had a mead go that bad and of course that was the first one I ever entered, LOL. Note to self. Taste first and then decide if you want to enter it.
