Beer Judging 101

Location:    Monocacy Brewing Company

Address:   1781 N. Market St., Frederick

Time:   5:30 – 7:30 PM

Tickets:   $30.00 per participant

 

The purpose of the Beer Judge Certification Program is to promote beer literacy and the appreciation of real beer, and to recognize beer tasting and evaluation skills. Sit in on a class and learn the basics of BJCP beer tasting. The popular class returns for its third year, and is fun for everyone from the craft beer newbie, to the long-time drinker of craft brews.

Presented by Nationally ranked beer judges Jim Sawitzke, BillHeverly and Grand Master judge Dave Justice, these BJCP certified judges present Beer Judging 101.

Ever wonder what separates a truly world class brew from a run-of-the-mill beer? This class will open you up to the world of beer judging, and introduce certain basic methods and terminology used by beer judges. We will identify aroma, appearance, flavor, and mouthfeel characteristics of the beer, going over a few specific defects that may occur in beer, and their causes. Weʼll also introduce the Beer Judge Certification Program. All of this while enjoying some great beer!

Beginners welcome, no pre-requisite is needed for this class.
