Please take note of some things that are new for our guild:
1. We are working to standardize our procedures for paneling. This will hopefully help our judges work to calibrate our scoring. See the proposal here:
Standardized paneling procedures
2. We wish to have some flexibility in the make up for panels. This is the proposal I shared at BrewU. However, as we discussed this proposal, it became clear that it may be too restrictive. As a result, I will rework this a bit to be more flexible for special circumstances. See the proposal as presented here:
3. We are building a community of brewers. Our brewing community needs to be involved in the advancement process and I need support from brewers to help with accountability. I am instituting a “sponsorship program” that will serve to keep me informed of progress in the knowledge requirements that are part of our guild advancement criteria. This is a reletively simple process. You can see the proposal here:
