The Rules Committee has met in advance of this weekend's Big Event. We have decided on the following two-tiered penalty system for any participants who bring a beer which does not fit in the category:
1) For close misses, the person bringing the beer will be penalized one point in the taste category from each person voting for that person's beer. For example, a person who brings an Oktoberfest from outside the United States will lose one point from every voter in the taste category.
2) For bad misses, the person bringing the beer will be penalized two points in the taste category from each voter and will be given all zeros in the cap category. For example, a pumpkin beer, or an IPA would be considered a bad miss.
The penalty will not be considered in determining the "Ultimate Loser."
For a refresher on the rules and scoring, see last year's post on that topic.
