Just wondering... Are results only posted on Mondays?


Not necessarily.  NY, Tampa and Seattle were posted last Friday.  St. Louis was posted on Monday.  With only 2 regions judging last weekend and hopefully they got their stuff in quick, you may see results tomorrow.

Come on St.Louis results...I know you're out there.  Today's the day...I hope.
So based on the St. Louis results being posted a little over a week after judging, it seems plausible that Austin results wouldn't be posted until early next week (judging was last weekend)? Just trying to get a general sense so I don't wear out the "refresh" button on my browser ;-)

They did finish on Sunday. It takes time for the AHA staff to verify all of the results. Check back in on Monday.

STL went to "Verifying results" one day later than the others judged that weekend; one would assume because the organizers took an extra day to get them in, but who knows.  As Austin/Milwaukee changed to Verifying Results on Monday, it seems likely you'll see the results tomorrow afternoon as all the other regions have been.  But (stuff) happens.

So I got my scoresheets back and did OK, low to mid 30's. Cool thing is, as I'm reading, I look at the 2 judges names who scored my american amber and suddenly realized...  I have heard these names before. Turns out one ( I won't mention any names ) was featured in Denny ad Drew's "Homebrew Allstars" and the other, among many other accolades, has lectured at NHC. You gotta love a hobby where your peers are so accessible. :)

This is VERY exciting, my IPA advanced out of Milwaukee! My first time entering the NHC and I took a first in the first round!

I'm going to have to re-brew it as I had no thoughts of advancing and we drank it all. I have a question regarding the re-brew. Is it bad form to make minor recipe adjustments based on the first round judges feedback? Not planning on anything major, just maybe slight water profile adjustment and bumping the mash temp up a degree or two. Got a couple of comments that it could use a bit better balance.

It obviously is a decent beer so if it's not right to make recipe changes I'll be happy to brew it the same.
Cheers!

Yes, you can make adjustments. It just has to be the same category Beer. Adjust your IPA, and good luck.
