Wow, the response for the BJCP exam has been enormous! There are way more people interested in taking the exam than we have room for, so in the name of fairness I am going to randomly select names. Let me know if you want to be included by midnight tomorrow (Wed 2/27) and then I will randomly select 11 people. Sorry in advance to those that aren't picked, but I didn't anticipate that there would be quite this much interest. There is so much interest that I would strongly encourage anyone who wants to take the initiative to schedule another exam as soon as possible. <div>

I have scheduled a BJCP exam for September 2014 in Fort Collins. Yes, that is the earliest possible date that I was able to schedule the exam! If anyone is interested in taking the exam please contact me. There is a maximum of 12 people that can take the exam, so best sign up soon if you want to take it. There is a $10 fee to take the online entrance portion of the exam, and an additional $40 for first time takers and $15 for subsequent
retakes for the tasting portion of the exam. In order to encourage commitment, I am requiring the $40 fee to be paid in advance and that will be non-refundable. I plan to meet as a group at least once per month starting in January 2014 to study and go over the style guidelines. There will also be additional expenses to cover the cost of the study materials (ie - beer). More information can be found here <a href="http://www.bjcp.org/examcenter.php" target="_blank">http://www.bjcp.org/examcenter.php</a>. Let me know if you are interested or have any questions. <div>
