Food & Drink
Join Certified Cicerone and beer judge Jeff Whelpley for a wheat beer workshop at Horse Thief Hollow Brewing Company. Participants will learn about wheat beer styles from the US, Belgium, and Germany. The class will sample style variations, such as Kottbusser and Dunkles Weissbier. Jeff will share trivia about the styles and demonstrate basic beer tasting/sensory skills. To keep you thirsty, Horse Thief Hollow will provide us with their spent grain soft pretzels!
To get the most out of this class:
- Try not to smoke a few hours before the class starts. Actually, please quit smoking. It's bad for you.
- Refrain from eating spicy foods the day of the class.
- Do not use scented soap or hand-sanitizer prior to the class.
- While most of these beers aren't necessarily high in alcohol, please arrange for transportation. Don't drink and drive, that's bad for you, too.
All ages welcome
Handouts for reference. Beer and food will be provided as part of the class.
