Off-Flavor Sensory Class

  • Plank Road Tap Room 39 Plank Road Elgin, IL, 60124 United States (map)

Beer is a beautiful combination of science and artistry. Frankly, a beer needs both to be worth your time.

We’re going to focus on the science portion for this class. Specifically, we will cover some common off-flavors.

Our resident Certified Cicerone ®, Alan Moreno, will be hosting with a focus on the five off flavors that he finds most often.

Your ticket includes:

  • Admission

  • An off-flavor worksheet

  • 5 beer samples, spiked with an off-flavor

  • A control sample

  • A guided tasting

  • A “graduation beer” of your choice that HASN'T been spiked!

Now, you may ask, why in the hell you would want to spend an evening drinking crappy beer?

Well, we have three answers…

  1. Having a wider base off flavor knowledge improves your confidence to speak-up when you taste something weird.

  2. Enhancing your off-flavor knowledge will actually increase your enjoyment of tremendous beers when you find them.

  3. Alan is a pretty fun teacher.
