ABLE BAKER BREWING: 5 PEPPER PORTER PUZZLE CONTEST – OFFICIAL RULES & DISCLAIMERS
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR TO WIN. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. ALL FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND MUNICIPAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS APPLY FOR ALL ENTRANTS AND FOR THE DURATION. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.
CONTEST OVERVIEW:
Hidden in the background on the 5 Pepper Porter labels are a series of symbols and icons. These symbols can be more easily seen via the “5PPpuzzlegraphic” cheat sheet displayed on our website at www.ablebakerbrewing.com and promoted on our social media pages. You can view the icon cheat sheet at any time via these outlets so that no purchase is necessary to enter the Contest. The Contest is simple, be the first person to decode the message on the label and submit a properly constructed entry (see Official Rules) and win the Grand Prize. The puzzle hiding within the label is a cleverly disguised cipher, each icon has a specific individual value and/or purpose. Decode the cipher and find the hidden message. We’re going to have some fun with this promotion, so the “solution” will be placed in a black envelope & dangled from the ceiling above our chalkboard taplist…..it’ll hang there until a winner is declared. If no one has correctly solved the puzzle by July 4th, Able Baker Brewing will select a winner from all the properly received entries (see Official Rules), selecting the submission that came closest to solving the puzzle. For the purpose of this contest, “closest” will be defined as “the largest number (most) of correct and properly placed letters”, this to be determined at the sole discretion of Able Baker Brewing. The Grand Prize will be weekly $20 Able Baker Brewing Gift Certificates that you can redeem for any Able Baker Brewing products available at our taproom (hats, t-shirts, glassware, 4-packs, non-alcoholic Root Beer’d, etc.) See Official Rules below for Grand Prize clarification and requirements.
