What:
The International Mead Festival is an event sponsored by The International
Mead Association and is the worlds' largest and most prestigious mead
competition and festival. This event hosts both a public tasting of
commercial meads and a private BJCP sanctioned judging of mead submitted by
Home Mead Makers from across the USA.

The Home Mead Maker Competition:
Last year the Home Mead Maker Competition had 212 entries which is more
than double any other mead only competition we know of. Bottle up your best

Entry Deadline is December 15th, 2006. 1st Round Judging - January, 2007

Note:
Second round judging and medal announcements will occur on site at the
February, 2007 festival. Therefore, you will not need to ship additional
mead for the medal round! We will pull the top three winners from each
category to be judged in second round judging. Winners will NOT be
announced until Friday, February 9, 2007. Score sheets will be sent
immediately thereafter.
