Beer Mile 2022 IMPORTANT QUESTIONS RE: RULES

A few questions have been coming in re: beer/wine selection criteria, and whether those racing need to supply their own.

Racing beverages must be supplied by racers. The provided kegs are for the after party, and are free - might be an idea to bring a mug.

BEER: beer must be a minimum of 5% alcohol. No hard ciders or lemonades. It must be beer. Beer is defined as a fermented alcoholic beverage brewed from malted cereal grains and flavored with hops.

Cans or bottles - your choice. Minimum volume 355mls (12 oz). Lots of bottles do not meet these criteria - be sure to check.

No special cans eg wide mouth. No straws, aids or shotgunning. If using bottles run with a bottle opener. Each beer is opened immediately before consumption. You can not open beers ahead of time.

WINE: supply your own. Wine must be a minimum of 11% alcohol. You will drink 4 x 5oz glasses during the race. Wine can be red/white/rose/fizzy, so long as it is 11% minimum. We will have plastic glasses on hand for wine milers to use.

Wine can be pre-poured into the provided glasses. Glasses will be marked with 5oz lines.
