Note about format of winners list

Since we would like to do this as real-time as possible... we are copying and pasting the winners from a PDF into the blog. They may cause weird formatting problems... but note this: all lists will have the following format...

Place BJCP Subcategory Name of Brew Brewer's Name Club Name

Also, because we get a -lot- of entries in different categories, we have to split up the categories into different ones... so the category of the beers may not match the BJCP assigned categories.

Now it's time to feast on lots of good German food. Untill the award ceremony... Prost!
