This class was a special holiday class where we sampled a variety of Christmas style beers. Some of my favorites were the Anchor Christmas Ale, Mikkeler From: and To:, and the HaandBryggeriet Bestefar. Derek described how each of the different beers were made, what styles they were, and the process how they get their distinct Christmas flavors. Dan provided insight into the business-side of brewing, like how beer distribution works here in the U.S.
I found the class very interesting, and it was cool to learn about the different beers and their breweries. And we got to taste lots of great beers and had fantastic specialty meat and cheese trays from the deli! Overall, an excellent night and well worth the minimal fee ($17).
