The Jury state in their Report "It is very satisfactory to be able to note in this connection that there was a remarkable concensus of opinion as to the merits of the exhibits, often amounting to unanimity, and this even when the members were blinded, which was frequently done. Many of the ales of all kinds were very fiue, and those which were ' off' were such as were very unlikely to have taken a place in any case ; in fact, the survival of the fittest has bccu effected by natural selection."
