Title

Beer School: Drink Your Chocolate!

Description

We won't be taking a trip down a chocolate river, but come learn about the magic of chocolate beers. Step into a world of pure imagination to decode the wonderous alchemy of hops, malts, and nibs and how we get such miraculous flavors. We'll be tasting 3-4 beers and talking about the elemental miracles we're imbibing. 21+ only.

Limited to 40 people!

Must be 21 years of age or older.
