CUL 303 The Craft of Beer
This course explores the history of beer, ingredients, brewing processes, beer styles and the business of beer. This will be accomplished with an in-depth study and discussion of beer past and present and the skill of brew masters to produce beers which reflect the character of each beer style. Learn how to taste and evaluate beer, how it should be stored and served and how to pair it with food. Each week will include a beer tasting and evaluation. There will be a field trip to a local brewery and an overview of home brewing.
