Event Overview

Brew and Grow offers a Basic Brewing Class for home brewers seeking to eliminate the guesswork of beginning the hobby!

During the Basic Class, an expert instructor guides attendees through the process of brewing a batch of extract beer. Throughout class time, the instructor will discuss basic brewing techniques, offer tips and tricks for making the process flow smoothly and provide basic details about the ingredients typically utilized in extract brewing.

Beyond basic processes and ingredients, the instructor describes the importance of proper cleaning and sanitation techniques and leads the attendees through a beer tasting. During the tasting section, the instructor provides instruction on the proper method for evaluating the aroma, mouthfeel, flavors, finish and aftertaste of an individual beer, providing the student with the basic skills for assessing the characteristics of beer and understanding beer quality in clear and simple language.

Throughout the fast paced 2 – 2 ½ hour session, the class attendees will acquire the necessary knowledge for successfully brewing extract beer at home while gaining hands on experience in a relaxed and enjoyable environment.

The cost for the class is $25. Following completion of the session, each participant will receive a 20% discount applicable to equipment kits, ingredient kits and ingredients.

What a fun morning activity! I loved that we also got to sample some beer they brewed onsite. I definitely recommend checking this class out. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. I feel like we're moderately prepared to brew our first batch very soon!

This was a great class to learn not only about how beer is brewed but how to get into the hobby of brewing your own beer and there was some great history and stories shared. I also really enjoyed that we took some time to go over tasting beers as well. I enjoy a good beer, so this class was great at helping me understand all that goes into the process behind brewing and made me enjoy it at another level. The instructor was great!
