The BCJP exam will be held on Saturday, December 10th or Sunday, December 11th. I am not sure where the first class will be held at my house in Minneapolis. (I will send the address out closer to the first class.) The goals of the BJCP are to promote beer literacy, promote the appreciation of real beer, and recognizing tasting and evaluation skills. Over the course of the class, you will be learning to recognize the 98 styles of beer, mead, and cider as well as techniques to become a better brewer while preparing for the BJCP exam. This is a hands-on class, where each person will be responsible for presenting one of the topics to the rest of the class. There is no cost for the class, but you are required to be a current member of one of the local beer clubs and will be responsible for purchasing beer for the one of the class sessions. The exam fee is $50, which will be collected on the second class session. Class size is limited. Please email me to reserve you place in the class.
