  Forgive me if this was asked elsewhere, but what is the California law that leaves us ineligible for the Pilsner Challenge?

  Thanks,  Nate

  "California prohibits liquor manufacturers from sponsoring sweepstakes that have valuable prizes. Thus, lawyers should advise wineries and brewing houses to exclude from eligibility residents of California."

  Don't feel bad. Folks in Tennessee are excluded too. :(

  I'm having trouble getting to play the Pilsner...I know I'm not allowed to win a prize, but I can still play it, right?

  I just wanna play St. Andrews!  It lets me enter my country and birth year, but then it won't let me click "Enter Now."

   

  EDIT:  You have to enter your birthdate the European way.  Thanks, SlimShady.
