Have I got something cool to tell you about! Check it out, we are going to team up with the Chester County Historical Society to offer a series of beer appreciation classes. I case you have no idea who they are the CCCH is a killer museum right across the street from us. They have a room that is just the right size for this kind of get together. Here’s the skinny:

Join us for a fun and educational series of classes with an emphasis on tasting beer . Each evening will start with reception including light snacks and a beer provided by Iron Hill Brewery and Restaurant, followed by a tutored tasting of four beers related to the topic of the day. Your guide through the world of  beer is renowned local brewer and beer expert Larry Horwitz. All classes are held at the Chester County Historical Society. Must be 21 with I.D. to participate. Classes are $49.95 each but we encourage you to purchase the entire series in advance for $109.95 for a substantial discount.  Classes are as follows:

• The  Armchair Beer Tour of Belgium Tuesday April 27, 2010 6:30p.m.-9:00p.m. There are almost as many beer styles as there are breweries in the tiny country of Belgium. Sample beers influenced by monks, wild yeast and ingredients, and centuries of truly individual beer culture. Brewers call Belgium the Disneyland of beer. Come see why!
• Bread in a Glass: World Class Wheat Beers Tuesday July 20, 2010 6:30p.m.-9:00p.m. Come enjoy a sampling of beers that draw unique character from, or whose primary ingredient is wheat.  From a beer Napoleon called ‘The Champagne of the north’ to the rich, strong, rummy, Wheat Bock of Munich we will drink our way through excellent examples of Bread In a Glass.
• I can’t believe That’s Beer! Blurring the line between grape and grain.  Tuesday September 28, 2010 6:30p.m.-9:00p.m. Wild Fermentations, barrel aging and the use of fruit herbs and spices give many modern artisanal malt beverages complex flavors and aromas that meet or exceed the profile of event he finest wines.
