the concept
beers, bags & braggn' rights
The Cornhole Circuit was founded in 2016 by Elevated Beer, Wine & Spirits and Versus Circus, LLC. The circuit is a bags league that currently operates between late Spring through the end of Summer, roughly May – August, simultaneously running league play on site at our hosting member breweries. Teams that register to play choose the brewery that works best for them, based off of location, league night, beer specials, among other factors, all using regulation equipment, while competing under the same managed system. Stats are recorded weekly for each league and posted live online for all to see. Once you select a brewery, you will play at that location for the entire 8 to 10 weeks leading up to the championships. The season is capped off by a major championship between ALL taproom teams, taking place at Mystic Lake Casino Hotel. Teams are seeded according to their final regular season rank and placed within a number of championship brackets against teams of similar records and skill. Teams that earn a spot in the top bracket will compete for the overall league championship, as well as cash, prizes and of course, The Hopper! The circuit has been designed to accommodate ALL skill levels, providing cash payouts and prizes for all brackets in the final tournament.
In just 8 seasons (minus COVID 2020) we've seen signs of the circuit taking off and continuing to grow. Spreading further and further throughout the great state of Minnesota and into surrounding regions / states.
