I don't feel Ahleckz beer is a valid entry, hence no points. Though as always we shall have a vote and the majority decision stands.

His email contained the message (as quoted above)

'It said rouge on the menu. Good enough for me!'

I've also include the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kriek_lambic

Though please feel free to make your own searches.

Also DJ can you confirm You have my Stout entry please?

Yes received, cheers

Rojin said:
I thought it had to be a "Red Ale" type beer?

Correct.

DirtyJester · 6 Jul 2013 at 21:02

For me, I'd class it as a fruit beer and yes Cherries are red but it just doesn't seem right.

I think it was more a case of being on holiday and trying to grab something at the last minute, that and I'm jealous!

@pingwing

Light/Lite doesn't just always mean low alcohol you know. It can refer to being lower in calories.

As for a potential next competition, yes quite a few things need to be ironed out 'BEFORE' it starts, and this requires 'ALL' those taking part to ask the questions and be clear about everything.

Now keep all this for main thread please

Cheers matey.

DirtyJester · 6 Jul 2013 at 22:09

No worries mate

Raptor said:
Mine was the nicest beer I've had so far in the comp.
Highly recommend it.!

Certainly an amazing name

Mine was rather nice too, but it's been ages since I've seen it in the store

DirtyJester · 7 Jul 2013 at 19:35

Any sign of Ahleckz today?

DirtyJester · 7 Jul 2013 at 23:21

Well Ahleckz was on today but sadly no response. I'll give him until tomorrow if he wants to compile a case for his defence..... then I'll update the points.

DirtyJester · 8 Jul 2013 at 11:01

Keep the votes coming please.

So far it's Yes = 2 and No = 3 for Ahleckz.

DirtyJester · 8 Jul 2013 at 17:48

Right I'm leaving the points till tomorrow as quite a few of you still have to comment/vote on Ahleckzs entry.

If you can't make your mind up, say so

Ahleckz said:
I was in Paris, and therefore my choice of red ales was somewhat lacking. I went to a well known beer bar, La Gueuze, in the hope to find something. The menu did say that the one that I picked was 'Rouge'. So I ordered it!

Oh, well if you put it like that then... :rolleyes:

Sonea Fifer said:
Well I vote a yes for Ahleckz's entry - other people had the "Rogue" in the title and though his didn't it certainly looks like it poured red both from his picture and the other pictures we can see on Google.

The Rogue used by others was in brewery name or beer name, they also had 'Red Ale' mentioned. By his own admission as stated on page one, he said the Rouge was on the 'Menu'.

I see your point and kind of agree - one thing is for sure should we have another beer competition then all these rules will have to be agreed upon well in advance.

I've been saying, yelling even screaming this all along. Having said that, this round that doesn't apply. Check page one of this thread or the BOTW main thread. It clearly states 'Red Ale'.

I'm thinking you might well be right there too - on both points

You cheeky git!

Rojin said:
In the end I said no because all it had going for it is that it is red colour, if someone else had entered a fruit beer that was red I would also say no. Red Ale is a style of beer and will be designated as such on the label.

My thoughts in a nutshell.

No points in this round for Ahleckz. I honestly think hand on heart he knows it himself and was chancing it with a smile on his face

I'll sort the points tomorrow whenever I'm off.

EDIT: Points now updated

DirtyJester · 9 Jul 2013 at 16:46

Weather is suppose to hold into the weekend. Once tonight is over I'm off till Sunday

Enjoy it mate, the weather and beer
