BREW OR CRY:
Brewers Challenge 2016
New Format
6 Team Captains will be chosen by the e-board, based on their scores from the previous year’s challenge and their willingness to be a captain.
Each Team Captain will draft club members, forming teams of at least 3 brewers. After teams have a total of 3 brewers, additional brewers will then be placed onto teams until there are no more eligible brewers left in the club. Where upon any new members joining the club shall be added to existing teams by way of the draft order / as discretion of the board.
The team captains that are chosen to face-off during the challenge will mutually agree on a style of beer. Once a style of beer has been agreed upon, it must be presented to the e-board and placed in the competition log. If teams are unable to agree upon a style of beer, then the e-board will choose a style of beer that is in the team’s best interest to brew0.
Each team may enter a beer for each brewer on the team, but only the TOP 3 will be awarded “TEAM POINTS”. Individual points will still be awarded
Winning team after 3 rounds will face off against each other for the grand prize and bragging rights of 2016 Brewer of the Year for the SPWH!
Point totals
1st =20 2nd=18 3rd=16 4th=14 5th=12 6th=10 (and so on…)
Extra points can be awarded for entering into a competition outside the club. Only one competition score will be awarded per beer in the Brew or Cry challenge but brewers may enter multiple competitions to get the best possible score counted. Points can be awarded up to the 3rd round judging.
Extra points are awarded of BJCP scores
20-30 = 2 30-40 = 4 40-45 = 6 45-50 = 10
The board reserves the right to reevaluate scoring system to maintain a fun competition, while continuing to challenge brewers
