Special Categories for 2006 River City Roundup Bullshooter's Cup The cup is awarded to the brewer who accumulates the most points in the competition. Points will be awarded on the following basis: 1st - 5 pts., 2nd - 3 pts, 3rd - 1 pt. The winner will receive a personalized, commemorative, laser-etched mug. Cornhusker Cup In the land of tall corn (where the term "knee high by the 4th of July" describes a crop that is right on schedule), the economic balance of a successful year often hinges on the crop of this simple plant of the grass family Gramineae, "zea mays." Plentiful and cheap, this grain adjunct often gets a bad rap in brewing circles. We're paying homage to this highly fermentable adjunct by once again presenting this specialty class for the 2006 River City Roundup Fair and Festival. Entries in this categoy must contain AT LEAST 25% corn (brewer's choice). Most common forms are flaked maize or corn grits. Corn must be detectable on the palate but in balance with the other fermentables. Beers entered in the CAP category are not eligible for entry in the Cornhusker Cup. The winning beer will be judged on its own merit, particularly drinkability. The winning brewer will receive a personalized mug. Good luck! "Maize" the force be with you!
