Well, if they are judging based solely on taste, why wouldn't you qualify?
You obviously put together a cordial that you enjoy, that others enjoy. You
know what you like when you taste it, and the same would appeal to you in
wines, beers and meads. Perhaps you wouldn't like "every" beer; but if you
like the sweet beers, then why is that wrong? A competition that is based on
"the winner is who I like personally" is not necessarily wrong; it just means
that more individuals have to "like" it for the main factor--taste--rather
than for documentation, period ingredients, etc. It is one catagory to
fail/pass in, rather than have a score based on curve.
