I am organizing a Cicerone beer education seminar to be held at Fullsteam Brewery (726 Rigsbee in Durham) on Friday, July 23rd at 2pm. A description of the course per the cicerone.org website follows:
"A new online learning program that teaches you to recognize common beer off-flavors. This class takes a novel approach to online learning by linking standardized tasting materials shipped to you in advance of the class with an online lecture to help you learn. When you register for this course, you will receive calibrated tasting spikes that you add to beer to quickly and easily create off-flavor samples for the tutored tasting session.
The 75-minute class will cover:
Tasting technique
Flavor variations: fruity flavor
Discussion and tasting of 5 key off-flavors:
DMS
Diacetyl
Oxidized
Acetlaldehyde
Infection "
The cost of the course is $35.00 and will cover supplies and beer, as well as the following:
A PDF copy of the lecture slides
Online lecture with tasting (approximately 75 minutes)
Recommended additional tasting exercises
Access to the recorded lecture for review
All you need to do is show up and be ready to learn!
Since I have to order seats ahead of time in six-person chunks, deadline for registration is JULY 8TH. Payment may be Paypaled to me at audra_gaizak@yahoo.com, or I will gladly accept cash at the time you make your reservation.
The gang at Fullsteam and I are looking forward to hosting you! Feel free to email me any questions at audragmarotta at yahoo dot com or call me at 919-538-4404. Cheers!
