We’ll explore some of the finer points of judging, and what makes a great beer judge. Class members will work on a BJCP judging sheet as a group, then perhaps even judge a beer. Learn about advancing within the BJCP. Pre-requisite is the 101 class,some beer judging /tasting background, or a basic knowledge of world beerstyles.
