The judging will be held on Friday April 10 and Saturday April 11, at Workhorse Brewing in King Of Prussia. The deadline for entry submission would be 3/21 or 28.

After organizing for many years, I have pivoted to being the Judge Coordinator. You must be BJCP to judge NHC, but we are always looking for additional stewards to help with the day-of tasks (getting bottles from the cold room to bring to the tables, removing judged bottles and cups, grabbing supplies, etc. basically anything the judges need while working on the flight). You will get breakfast and lunch, and the opportunity to try beers, meads, and ciders throughout the day.
It's a great way to see how competitions work, and also to support the hobby in general!
