January Monthly Meeting – Listermann’s
Friday, January, 18th 7:30pm
Can you distinguish an ale from a lager? Do you know the difference between an American IPA and APA? Do you think that you would be able to distinguish an American Lager from a German Lager? You’ll get the chance to try at Name That Beer!
Here's how it works: You'll be given samples of a commercially available beer. ou must first decide is it an ale or a lager? (1 point). Then define the general style. (Example: American Ale, another point.) Now, can you name the orrect sub-style? (Am. Brown Ale, a third point). Finally, can you name the exact brand of beer? (In this example, Bell's Best Brown, another two points.) He/She who tallies the most points after five beers will be crowned the Big Shot Bloatarian Beer Nerd of the Month (Quite an honor!) To make things a ittle easier, for each beer we'll recruit a victim... er, expert, who will taste the beer and give impressions and guesses to the group. This gives you a chance to compare your tasting skills with some of our more experienced members, and maybe improve your overall palate. This fun and challenging January meeting promises to be another great one in what's become an annual event.
