West Coast Modern Barleywine Competition 2023

Orange County Mashups present the first annual West Coast Modern Barleywine Competition!

This contest goes out to the big, bold flavors of barleywine that maybe don’t fit the classic American or English style definitions – and might not have the opportunity to shine at a general open competition. Long term beer projects are a tremendous feat, and we’d like to honor those that put in the time. We’d also like to help out anyone looking for feedback or suggestions to improve their barleywine. This will be a BCJP Competition ith best of show. Registration opens early 2023. Dropoff deadline will be March 3rd.
