Last night we had a beer tasting at the farm. I had 11 different kinds of India Pale Ales, and Glen brought a 12th. I had sheets made up with the names of the beers, and also quotes from the bottles. The beers themselves were wrapped in newspaper, and numbered. I poured the tastes behind the bar so nobody could see the bottle size. Everyone could taste the different beers, then try to guess which was which, and also guess which quote went with each taste.
Scoring is serious business, as you can tell by these grim visages.
This was the star of the show:
And here are all the contestants.
Last weekend, we got to enjoy a different sort of beer tasting when Glen's brother Barry came to visit and we all met at Sierra Nevada so he could try the sampler.
