Tasting With Cicerone: Common Off Flavors Of Lager and IPA

Date & Time: Thurs, 4/30 @2:30pm
Location: Societe Brewing Co. Old Town San Diego Taproom

Join Master Cicerone Dan Imdieke for a tasting and discussion of 7 common off flavors found in beer. 4 are commonly found in pale lagers (Acetaldehyde, DMS, and H2S and SO2) and 3 are relevant flavors in IPA’s (Diacetyl, Isovaleric Acid, and Damascenone). Participants will practice evaluation techniques in a lager and IPA base beer, identify their personal perception of each flavor, and understand the source and ways to prevent each flavor from forming in beer. Perfect for brewers, tap room employees, or sales professionals looking to be a trusted advisor for their accounts.
