Beervana!

If most of your beer has been from icy mugs, or the ubiquitous red plastic cup, the answer is "no," you probably have not tasted the complex and nuanced treat beer can be. Students need to bring $25 (cash or check only) to first class to pay the instructor for beer samples. Students must be 21 years of age or older and bring ID.
