What sort of prizes and awards are typically given at competitions?
Again, it varies. A ribbon for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in each flight, and in the Best Of Show round, is typical. Other prizes — brewing equipment or supplies — are sometimes awarded in addition to the ribbons. For example, first place winners in each flight at the Drunk Monk Challenge 2000 received a coupon redeemable for a free vial of White Labs yeast.
