LLFW 371 - Beer Tastings and Pairings

Ever wonder what the difference is between a German Pilsner and a classic American Pale Ale? Whether you think all beer tastes like bitter water or you're the one ordering a Belgian-inspired craft brew, join us for an intoxicating journey into civilization's oldest libation. We'll begin the first class by exploring how beer is produced both large and small scale, to understand where the flavors come from. We'll also immerse ourselves in beer styles, as we develop our palette and learn to identify different flavor components. Finally, during the second session, we'll delve into the world of beer and food pairings, sipping the best ales and lagers as we nibble pairings both savory and sweet. Please note: there are no food pairings during the first session, and it is recommended that you eat before class. Please bring photo ID that indicates your age.
