Do you want to learn how to brew your own beer or just wondering what brewing is like using a commercial brewing system? Ever wonder how non-professional homebrewers diving into a large commercial system adjust after 9 years of running a brewery?
For LA Beer Week we will give you a candid and rare opportunity to experience a full, complete, no bullshit brewing day with us from the balancing of the water, milling of the grains, mashing, sparging, boiling, hopping, whirlpooling, knocking out, yeast pitching and cleaning! (We actually had half the crowd stay with us till the bitter end last year) We will show you every step of the brewing process with long winded speeches/rants, samples and lots of pointing at stuff.
You may also be lucky enough to witness the more personal innerworkings of a brew day that you probably will never hear about like:
-Potential cursing in several languages if we have a stuck mash.
-How to fish out a thermometer we accidentally dropped in the boiling kettle
-Opening the wrong valve and pretending we meant to do that
-Forgetting things
-Fist fights after not hitting the intended specific gravity after boil
There will also be plenty of time and opportunities to ask questions about anything beer or brewery business related, shoot the shi... and just enjoy a nice day of brewing with us. This year we will also give everyone an opportunity to try out all the beers finishing up in the tanks.
Space is limited to 25 people. Coffee & Donuts, Lunch and a free pint of beer will be provided. +21 and over. No pets allowed for this event.
