Prerequisite(s): Students must be at least 21 years of age.

Description: Students in this course investigate the malting, brewing, fermentation, and aging processes as they are related to historical and modern beer styles. Students apply an awareness of beer styles to the principles of beer and food pairing.

Students compare the interpretation of historical beer styles to the current United States craft brewing industry.
