2007 Big and Huge ResultsThe results for the 20th annual Big and Huge Homebrew Competition are in!Well, I think it's safe to say that the 20th Annual MHTG Big and Huge Homebrew Competition this year was a Big and Huge success! We saw a nice increase in the number of out-of-town entries, many of them coming from other Midwest homebrew clubs. It is good to see that there is renewed regional interest in our "venerable" contest. The competition committee would like to extend a BIG AND HUGE thank uou to EVERYONE who helped out on Saturday April 28th. The judges hung in there for and made it through all the high gravity beers, ciders and meads. Thank you also to the stewards who ensured that all the entries were checked in and handled properly. Without further ado... the results! Cheers! MHTG Competition Committee Best Of ShowTwo Gremskis, Doppelbock, Muskego, WI. (Milwaukee Beer Barons) Lagers1st - Two Gremskis, Doppelbock, Muskego, WI.
