What is Beer School?
If you’re a beer lover or just curious about this ancient beverage, Beer School has got you covered! Our sessions are designed to help you develop a deeper appreciation for beer, as we guide you through the sensory analysis of different brews and help you identify the unique flavors that make them so special.
But don’t worry, we won’t bore you with complex scientific jargon or chemical compounds. Instead, we present the information in a way that’s easy to digest and enjoyable to learn. Our classes are perfect for everyone from newbies who are just starting to explore the world of craft beer, to homebrewers looking to perfect their recipes, to commercial brewers who want to expand their knowledge of ingredients and beer styles.
So why not grab a cold one and join us for an exciting and educational journey into the wonderful world of beer?
Cheers!
