I only like lager. Never liked ale really.

I've still got most of my choices in the fridge and will probably never drink them.

Might be best to send them to the current leader....

Does the king beer have to say the word king on the label?

From page 1 "K - King = Anything King related for beer name ONLY ie. a Kings name past or present, even King on its own"

So, that could be "George" as in King George, "William" as in King William IV etc etc.

And reading that clarification, I'm guessing since it has to be the beer name only that means breweries with King in them such as Greene King are not acceptable but perhaps DJ can clarify that?

Just as Windle pointed out above and below no it doesn't

Quite correct, Beer name only not brewery.

Going back to King beer, judges ruling please...

If a beer has two names on the label (excluding brewery), for example the made up "Monkey George" beer with George referring to King George I to IV or however many King Georges there were. Valid entry or no?

DirtyJester · 13 May 2013 at 15:14

Hmmm well we allowed it with 'H' so can't see why not....

What does everyone else think?

Rojin · 13 May 2013 at 15:28

I would've thought the name has to be recognised as a King, kinda defeats the purpose otherwise? Of course if there was a King who was known as Monkey George...

Windle · 13 May 2013 at 15:35

I would have agreed with DJ comment about it being equivalent to the H round where things like Cutthroat were allowed etc.

Particularly with this round, there are only a couple of beers which explicitly say "King" in the beer name so when talking about using the name of a king limiting it to "George" beer etc means its likely there will be lots of duplicates as it's unlikely there are lots of beers with just one name as the beer name?
