competition judges evaluate each entry according to appearance, aromatics, and taste to

Special thanks to Doc’s Cellar for their continued support of the competition.

Entries are judged by locals chosen for their great knowledge and experience for the fields of

both wine and beer. Ranging from makers, industry insiders or having years of judging

experience, feedback is always our goal with the judges chosen.
