DAS BOOT

 

Das Boot Rules (1v1)

Objective:

The objective is to finish all the beer as quickly as possible and without spilling a single drop.

Setup:

For Das Boot, you will need 1 official Pro Beer Sports table, 1 official Pro Beer Sports Das Boot, and 3 unopened cans of 12oz beer.

  • The official Pro Beer Sports table dimensions are 8’ (length) x 2’ (width) x 2.5’ (height).

  • The official Pro Beer Sports Das Boot holds 38 ounces.

Pour all 3 beers into Das Boot and let it rest on the table until the beer is ready.

Who goes first:

When the player is ready, they may pick up the glass and hold it and notify the timer they are ready to begin.

Gameplay:

The timer will give a countdown (3, 2, 1, GO!) and the player may begin to drink when the clock starts. While drinking, if any beer spills down the player’s cheeks, lips, or chin they get disqualified. When finished with the beer, the player must put the glass back onto the table. The clock does not stop until the player sets Das Boot back on the table, signaling they are done.

Winning:

The player who can drink Das Boot the fastest without spilling a drop is the winner.

Special Rules:

Players are allowed to take breaks while drinking during Das Boot, but the clock keeps running.

Sitting down Das Boot is the signal to stop the clock, so don’t sit it down at all until you are sure you are done.

Not a single drop can be spilled or left in the glass during Das Boot.

In the Grand Finals of the Beerlympics, the last mug will be replaced with Das Boot with two 12 oz beers inside. All Das Boot spilling rules will apply.

FAQ:

What happens if there is foam or backwash left in Das Boot after I did my best to get it all?

Judging games like this can be tough, but our referees are trained to know when someone has finished a beer. Most reasonable people can watch someone drink it and look into the glass after and determine if they finished it or not without training.

Are distractions allowed?

Respectful distractions are allowed, but not within 6 feet of the player drinking. You cannot touch opposing players. All players must also always remain on their side of the field during a game. You may not blow or try to generate wind in any way towards the table or players as a distraction. You may not try to shake the ground or table as a distraction. Personal insults will not be tolerated, be more creative.
