A bunch of homebrewers in JC are organizing another event. Here is what Ed sent over. If you have questions, email him at brewbattle13@gmail.com.
Homebrewers,
After a fun Homebrew Event last May in Hoboken, we were asked to assist Jersey City Ties (http://jerseycityties.com/) in organizing their event, the Jersey City Fall Brawl. This event will be similar to the Hoboken Homebrew and Chili contest, where there are 25 brewers and a portion of the proceeds goes to local charities. We’re looking to fill these spots. Please help us spread the word, and compete your finest ales!
When: October 5th
Where: Jersey City…, 4th Street Arts Festival
What: 25-30 different brews. 5 gallons, corny/bottle doesnt matter
Expected Attendance: 300 people
Prizes: 1st, 2nd, 3rd place (Judges**), along with a single peoples choice. Exact prizes are TBD and based on attendance, but cash, gift cerftificates, trophies, and a few long shot suprises are in store.
**We are in need of BJCP Judges. Please contact us if you or anyone you know may be interested. Although the May event was fun, we want it to be more serious this time. Not an officially sanctioned competition, but similar to Brooklyn Wort in that a panel of experts are dishing out the prizes.
Hope to hear from you all soon!

Would love to judge. 14 years of beer demoing experience but no formal training. Think it would be a blast.
