Why? I don't understand why a local 1-day competition would need to have 3 bottles. 2 is all that is necessary. The first is used in the initial judging and if the beer is worthy, a second would be used for a BOS round. Guess I am just a little upset cause I had saved 4 bottles for these two competitions coming up in May and one has decided to implement a new 3 bottle requirement this year... so i can only pick one!
