Always Remember, Do It With Style!
Teams meet on the beach to battle it out for the ultimate prize in Brewing Athletics, the Grand Champion Altitude Cup. Each team competes in a series of eight events involving skill, cunning, and brute force. The events will be judged by a panel of three “celebrity” judges.
Keg Toss -Each team member has one chance to chuck a keg as far as they can. Distances are added and highest cumulative score wins.
Service with a Smile -One person from each team runs through a slalom coarse with a tray to the beer garden, picks up two beers, then runs back through the slalom coarse. Teams are scored on time and most importantly… style!
Mash Relay -Two people from each team rush to transfer grist from one bin to another. They then drag the bin through the sand around a cone and back to the start where they transfer the grist back to the original bin. Lowest time wins.
Cheap Beer Toss -Each team member tosses cans of cheap swill at a bed made of nails with a keg cut in half in the middle. Points are awarded at: 1 point on the nails, 2 points in the keg, and 5 points if you hit the rim of the keg and the can splits in half! Points are also given for style. Highest cumulative score wins.
Hand Truck Race -One person from each team goes through an up/down slalom coarse using a hand truck with a full ¼ bbl on it. Lowest time wins and points are given for… style.
Keg Sled Race -Everyone on your team works together to load two full ¼ bbls onto the back of specially made sleds then push, pull and drag the sled out around a cone and back. Lowest time wins.
Yeast Toss - Two members of each team toss a balloon of fermenting yeast at each other, taking one step back with each throw. Last one to get covered in yeast wins!
Dune to Surf Race -The mother of all Brewing Athletic events!!! Four brave souls from each team participate. The race begins with two members running from the pub down to the mighty Pacific with a full ¼ bbl. Once they reach the beach they dunk the ¼ bbl in the ocean, which is when the other two members of your team pickup the keg and race back to the pub. Lowest time wins and oxygen is available afterwards.
