Every first Tuesday of each month we meet up at a local brewery to taste different beer styles. The main focus of these sessions is to strengthen our taste pallets by identifying the vast collection of flavours and aromas.
The information provided in each session is meant to be easy to digest, no matter your background in beer or brewing. These sessions are not (yet) applicable to any brewing qualifications, but do provide a springboard into the other educational institutions around the world.
My aim for each person attending one or all sessions is for them to walk away knowing a bit more about beer and how to appreciate the product.
Sessions:
- Berry Sours – Brewing Techniques
- Colour – EBC/SRM/Lovidbond
- Hops – IBU’s
- Wheat – Mouthfeel and head
- Porter & Stout – dark grains
- Dark & Heavy – Alcohol
- Toffee & Caramel – Maillard Reaction
Our next session is:
Tuesday 05 September 2023
at Afro Caribbean Brewing Co.
2nd Avenue, Kenilworth
BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL (so I know how much beer to bring)
LIMITED SEATS!!!
6:00pm for 6:30pm start
NB: If you are wanting to move downstairs afterwards to have a drink or food, it is vital that you book a table. You can book online here. If you sit at a table, then please order from your waitron. Thank you
Beer School CAPE TOWN – One Session
This is for the 10th and final Beer School session for the year in Cape Town at Jack Black’s Taproom (10 Brigid Rd, Diep River, Cape Town) on Wednesday 11 December 2024, from 18:30 to 21:30 approximately.
Subject: Beer & Food
Our final session for the year focuses on pairing different beer styles with a combination of food types. Apart from the soothing sound of the host’s voice, guests will enjoy a six course meal with two pairing beers per course. That’s 12 different beers in total! Guests will vote for their favourite pairings after each round. The night promises to be fun and entertaining. You don’t want to miss this!
