The Experience

keyboard_arrow_up

So you think you know beer, but can you really say what you love about that IPA? Or why you’re sometimes in the mood for a porter over a stout? Join beer pro (now there’s a job) Kevin Brooks for this live virtual experience where you’ll learn how to taste and appreciate different brews like an expert.

  • Before class, Kevin will share his recommendations on the six kinds of beer you’ll be sampling: pilsner, hefeweizen, gose, IPA, porter, and stout.
  • While you taste each one, you’ll learn how to detect and appreciate their flavor profiles and learn about their distinct histories—you’ll even find out why beer glasses come in so many different shapes and sizes.
  • By the end of class, you’ll be able to hit the craft-beer section at your market or explore local breweries with a savvy confidence in what you enjoy and want to try next.
Class length: 90 minutes.
We suggest: Beer without nuts? Unthinkable! Enhance your gift of this class by pairing it with our Nostalgic Sports Nuts Sampler, a collection of 12 deliciously flavored nut mixes packaged in reusable tins with vintage-style, sports-themed artwork.

About

Kevin Brooks' beer career began with cheese. While working at one of New York City's oldest cheese shops, Kevin taught dozens of classes on cheese pairings with food and wine, until one day he was asked to fill in for their resident beer expert—and the rest was hops history. Kevin now boasts more than a decade of experience in the business of beer: He's bought it, sold it, tasted it, and loves helping people appreciate more about what he calls "the beverage that helped build human civilization."

For this class, you'll need a small glass or wine glass and an optional discard bucket, as well as one of each of the types of beer listed in the link below
