I'll second that, I think it'd be fairer than just having folk order entire entries for the whole comp online (or at least a good chunk of them). Half the fun IMO is hunting for beers which are unique in person.

For sure it is

I've so far entered up until 'F' and all have been sourced locally

LOL we're only at week 5 with this one

To be fair mate the competition is a long term plan, was fantastic round one, my poor contribution was my only low point but that's hear nor there.

The format worked very very well and that's something that i think needs to stay, it kept things very dynamic and to be frank was the reason you never really new what was going to happen .

Just my thoughts and i i will play either way regardless

I like the idea of 3 at a time. The voting also seemed to help involve people (although I didn't take part)

For the fruit round does it just need to be a fruity beer or does it have to say "fruit" or say "strawberry" on the label?

I've just opened a beer that I didn't know was fruity and its horrific. Would be good if I didn't have to punish myself further having to buy another fruit beer!

Well there will be some voting in this round too

M - Multi choice where we vote for our favourite country, highest vote count is the country selected.

Fruit beer has to be something fruit based, flavoured yes

Good. Just wasn't sure if it was needed to be stated on the label or not

Well it is bound to mention something or how else will you know when you buy it....

Martynt74 · 7 Apr 2013 at 19:48

I didn't when I bought it

On further looking it does have a picture of some grapes. Will that do?

Surely there must be something on it describing what it is, not just a picture of some grapes?

Martynt74 · 7 Apr 2013 at 19:58

Sadly not. But then again it's all in anther language!

Ill see how I get on finding something else just in case.

I think general reference to a fruit or fruit by name or fruit translated is fine, a bit of danger wouldn't go a miss, a little research wouldn't hurt any one

Its just beer, that's all it is honest

Quick question about the "Y" entries - yes I know we've quite a bit to go before that but should it be something with "Old" in the name (Old Speckled Hen being the most obvious) or should it be "Ye Olde Beer" type name? Or would either suffice?
