FOAM Cup BJCP Competition 2026

This is an ALL STYLES contest for Beer, Mead & Cider!

=== See the official Contest Website for all details ===

Make the Dead Yeast Society Famous!

The Dead Yeast Society is on the cusp of breaking into the Top 10 of beer clubs in the U.S.A. (we are currently ranked #12, and are only a few brews out) We are encouraging all members to enter their brews to make the final push to put us on the map.

Spots are filling up fast. The competition has a total paid entry limit of 475, and there are about 3 dozen spots left.

This is a big contest, part of the Circuit of America, and a great way to get feedback on your brews. It doesn’t matter if you just started brewing or are old-hat. Enter your brews! You can’t get a medal if you don’t enter, and the DYS can’t the recognition either. Don’t overthink it, just enter! (and PAY for the entries to secure your spot, there are several dozen who entered but didn’t pay yet)

Cost to enter is $13 per entry and must be paid online. You also have to pay first in order to print your paperwork.

DO NOT SHIP YOUR ENTRIES!

Brian Biggs is coming down from Connecticut to Jim’s house on Friday November 6th to pick up our entries, head to Shreveport that evening, then drive into Tulsa the next morning to drop them off.

This contest is only requesting 2 bottles. Please secure your entry paperwork to the bottle with a rubber band, NO tape or glue!

Get your entries to Jim before 5pm Friday November 6th!
