About this Event
Do you love beer but want to know more about where it comes from? Beer dates back thousands of years and has a rich history that goes hand in hand with the advancement of civilization and industry. Despite having a simple recipe mainly involving water, barely, hops, and yeast, there are hundreds of different styles that have been created in various regions throughout the world. It is commonly referred to as “drink of champions”, but what is it that makes this ambrosiac beverage so enticing? How do you make something so varied and delicious using only four ingredients? Whether you’re a homebrewer, commercial brewer, or just an avid beer geek, we’ve got the class for you. In Brewing 101 we will talk about the history of beer, origins of certain styles, ingredients used, and the basics of the brewing process.
