Our June meeting will be a fantasy homebrew draft. The concept is similar to a fantasy sports draft, using the snake draft approach pick in order from 1…XXX, then XXX…1 and repeat that until each team is “full”.
You have to build out a roster to meet the following criteria:
Base Malt
Hop 1
Hop 2
Yeast
Specialty Malt 1
Specialty Malt 2
Adjunct
Wildcard Spot (Can be any category you choose).
General Rules
You can draft in any order, meaning you can take any category with any pick (but base malt and yeast can only be drafted once).
Once a pick is drafted it is removed from the board.
These are the only ingredients that can be used in the beer, outside of water adjustments and clarifying/nutrients.
Beers must be brewed and ready for judging by the September club meeting.
You have to use all the ingredients in your beer.
Can sign up as individuals or as teams (likely 2 brewers would be best).
If you plan on participating, please let Matt B know so we can ensure there’s enough draft picks!
