Rick Oftel and I went to a similar event that featured the history of
Pilsner. The lectures were a bit dry, but the people were great fun.
When the Czechvar rep had to leave, Rick and I took over serving at the
bar and tapped one of his kegs. Rick was the toast of the party.
People were fascinated that you could make homebrew this good and we
were showered with compliments. We even had a Czech dance troop offer
to perform at the next club Christmas party.
