Back when the BJCP developed the Mead exam, a group of Underground Brewers were among the first in the nation to jump on the chance to get accredited. We studied for and passed one of the first Mead tasting exams offered.
Well, we’ve done it again. The BJCP administered one of the first Cider exams at Homebrew Con this past June and the UBC was there. Results just came in.
Congratulations to Eric Sforza, Steve Victor, and Matthew Bellemare, some of the first credentialed BJCP Cider judges in America! Woot!
If you are interested in becoming a Cider judge, get on the waiting list for the Cider exam that we are hosting in February. Ask at any club meeting about how.
