Embark on a journey into the world of beers at a beer tasting and sample versatile beer styles under the guidance of a beer expert.
Nowadays, beer tastings, beer tastings or beer tastings are considered great events where different beers from craft beer to classic pilsner are tasted. In addition, participants are educated about the beers and how they are made.
Originally, beer tastings were used in breweries as quality control to ensure the good taste, smell as well as the usual appearance of the beer.
A beer sommelier or other beer expert such as a brewer or beer distributor conducts the beer tasting and guides participants through the program. Sometimes beer tastings are combined with a brewery tour or you learn how to brew beer yourself.
