Presented in partnership with Bomber Brewing, this will be a focused look at the ingredients in beer from a global, historical and scientific perspective. Learn why women were once the only people allowed to brew beer, how the chemical compounds in hops and yeast affect beer, taste malted (germinated) barley, and look through a microscope at the resin on hops, crystal malt, and germinated barley.
The first evening, on November 16th, will be an interactive talk at VanDusen, including sampling beer brewed by Bomber Brewing with ingredients harvested from the Garden. The second evening will be a tour and tasting at Bomber Brewing among the tanks of fermenting ales.
Price includes talk, brewery tour, and beer tasting at both locations. Ages 19+ with valid photo ID only.
This is a two-part class. The lecture takes place on November 16th, 6:30 – 8:30 pm at VanDusen Botanical Garden.
