Bantry Courses Eating the Sheep's Head Way What's On

craft-beer and cider workshop

Take your understanding of Irish Craft Beer and Cider to the next level on this professional-grade Irish Craft Beer & Cider Workshop

The aim of this assessed course is to give the participant a connection to the elements that give beer & cider flavour. Malt, hops, yeast and grain, apples, yeast, with an overall look at the brewing and cider-making processes. There will place a strong emphasis on tasting and assessment, beer and cider styles and food matching.

The course starts with a brief overview of the brewing and cider making process, and the components that affect flavour in beer and cider. Then we will explore the different components, with the aim of gaining a better connection to their role in the flavour.

Journeying through the basic craft beer styles, lager, pale ale, IPA, amber ale, dark ale, porter, stout and imperial stout, we will be able to compare, contrast and assess each one. We will also explore dry, med dry, sweet cider, as well as natural versus inoculated fermentation.

By the end of this full-day craft beer and cider course, you will be able to write confidently a knowledgeable beer or cider tasting note, and also have the confidence to hold your own craft beer or cider tasting event.

The course includes:
Course notes and all beer and cider tasting samples.
Tasting notes on all beers and ciders.
Assessment samples of malt, hops, grain and yeast.
Morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea.
Certificate of completion.
This course will definitely help to equip hospitality, wholesale or retail staff with an understanding of the growing world of craft beer and cider. Help them to communicate their knowledge effectively to customers.
