Home Brewer of the Year 2001 Points
We had an increase in the number of entries for the February BOTY contest. We had seven entries, up from five for last month. Perhaps the fact that Porters and Stouts are popular styles accounted for this increase. Whatever the reason, it was nice to see. The results were very close, with just a couple of points separating the winners.
First Place - Mark Tumarkin for his Dry Irish Stout
Second Place - Pete Turner for his Brown Porter
Third Place - Bruce Stevens, also for a Brown Porter
