Blue Ox Brew Off
Homebrew Competition
2018 Results
Thank you to all that entered our third annual Blue Ox Brew Off Competition hosted by the Blue Ox Brewers Society and Jack Pine Brewery. This year boasted 47 entries spanning a wide array of categories. The top from each category went head-to-head in a Best of Show style panel with one beer coming out on top, to be brewed at Jack Pine Brewery.
Thanks again to all that entered and those that helped judge and steward. It wouldn't have been possible without you.
