| Next Meeting - June 8, Sunday, 3 PM |
June 8th special meeting Sensory Awareness Practicum Beer judges typically assess beer based on appearance, aroma, flavor, mouthfeel, and overall impression. They look to the style guidelines to decide how closely the brewer adheres to the parameters that govern the description. They can pick out off-flavors such as diacetyl, DMS, skunkiness, and cardboard. They know that only an educated palate and keen sensory awareness can truly appreciate the craft brewer's skills. Our next meeting will be a unique hands on lesson in beer sensory awareness. It will be presented by beer judges and award winning brewers D.J. Soboti and Jeff Levine. You owe it to yourself to come to this very special educational tasting event. This is the only session that D.J. Soboti and Jeff Levine will be conducting on the east coast this year. ----------------------------- Home Brew Challenge Winners By every measure the DB15's May meeting had one of the finest fields of any home brew competition in New Jersey this year. Steam was the style and great taste was the standard. In one of the closest voting results ever seen in our challenges three brews emerged victorious. The gold medal went to Chris Johnson, the silver was won by Jim Prusinowski, and the bronze was earned by Rich Shannon. Congratulations to these great home brewers and thanks to all who entered the contest. |
