Rules
The Dominion Cup is the homebrew competition hosted by the James River Homebrewers every year. Although this competition has traditionally been quite large, we decided that due to the challenges faced in the last year, that we would focus on a smaller quality competition than trying to do something as large. As a result, there are some things that are different this year, so please read the rules carefully.
We anticipate returning to in-person judging for both First Round and Best of Show this year. We will continue to take precautions and ask that those volunteering abide by all safe precautions as specified by the competition coordinator.
We are limiting the total entries to 300. We will continue to require 3 bottles to give extra flexibility in case of some virtual judging and to allow for a better mini-BOS experience. The cost per entry is still $10. Note that you must pay for your entry in order to reserve your spot.
The competition will be open to all Beer Styles, as well as Mead and Cider from the 2015 BJCP Guidelines.
Winners will be announced on the website and through social media after the Best of Show round is complete. Score sheets will be scanned into the website, but will not be delivered in person unless picked up during the competition final round.
