For the fruit based beer, does Elderflower count?

I would be inclined to say no. That said, if you want to risk it and try, it would be thrown open to a vote.

Elderberry should count, but Elderflower doesn't appear in this list:

Weirdly, Coconut is a fruit! Never knew that!

You email a picture of the beer, I don't visit to check for myself

Unless you plan on winning....

Is there a start week yet? I've got a craft beer advent calendar that I'm hoping will tie in to the December weeks!

No official start date. I am hoping to start soon, still waiting on a reply from Ahleckz who has always been a keen player before.

Nothing to stop people from taking their pictures and saving them till required.

I do hope to start this side of Christmas.

I was intending heading through to Edinburgh to purchase the beer I had in mind for America - with the Forth Road Bridge now closed until next year I'm going to have to find an alternative . . . . .

My guess, the bridge is going to be closed well into next year. Have you seen the size of the cracks?

Don't forget mate, it's the Americacacacas

That's plenty of options

Not sure how I feel about people buying beers in advance! Personally I buy each in the week of the competition and I think anything else is cheating

Some of us work offshore, so have no choice! But I do understand where you are coming from!
