Here’s how it works… We take 5 basic categories of brewing beer and spin to determine what criteria for each category we should meet for making the Mash Your Luck Beer. After we spin for each category, we have the option of taking a mulligan on one category and re-spin. This will be determined by a show-of-hands vote.
We encourage FOAMers to team up with a fellow FOAMer or two to formulate and brew for our newest club competition, but you can also brew this beer solo.
Here are the Five categories:
ABV | IBU | Color | Region | Adjunct |
Very Low: 0-3% Low: 3.1-5% Medium: 5.1-7% High: 7.1-9% Very High: 9.1+% |
Low: 0-25 IBU Medium: 26-50 High: 51-75 Very High: 75+ |
Pale (straw) Golden Amber Brown Dark |
US Germany British Isles Belgium Australasia Fantasy/Sci fi |
Fruit Flaked Grains Fermentable Sugars “Winter” Spices None |
