Brewing Trials

At our 2020 Winter Meeting we had our largest tasting of Single Hopped Brewing Trials (SHBT) ever!  65 participants were able to taste 14 experimental hop beers (lager and IPA's) and rate their tasting preference with help from the BA Sponsored HopSource (DraftLabs).  For a summary of our tasting results, please see the attachment below.  

Due to travel and gathering restrictions in the summer of 2020, beer tasting occurred remotely and the results are listed below under 'Download additional Information'.  These restrictions continued into 2021 - brewing of advanced lines was switched from a group function to our HRC brewers doing internal brewing and hop assessments.   

Many thanks to all of our HRC brewing members who help to make these brewing trials possible!!
