Beer Pong Kit

The Esplanda Beer Pong Kit is a party-game accessory, not a drink. The listing gives no component counts, so check the contents before planning a game. Kits like this usually include a set of plastic cups and a few ping-pong balls, and a standard game uses ten cups per side in a triangle with two balls per turn. If you're buying for a tournament night, confirm the cup and ball count first, since lost balls are the usual shortage. Set the cups on a table about 8 feet long, which is the usual regulation length. Fill them to a shallow depth only, an inch or less, so the cups stay stable and each round is quick. Many players keep a cup of plain water beside each end for rinsing the balls between throws. If the cups hold beer, a light lager or pilsner suits the game best. Those styles are low in bitterness and stay pleasant at the cold end of the range, around 38 to 42°F (3 to 6°C). Ice-cold serving matters here because the cups sit out for the length of a game. Because the cups are the glassware, you don't need a separate glass. Plastic cups are the practical choice for a throwing game. Keep any breakable glassware off the table.
