This past week I'm thankful to be at an amazing event in Brazil. Below are just some quick recaps.
Day 1
On route to Brazil from Dublin:
3 flights
16 hrs in air
Arrive in Brazil
Barrels aging beer
Brew house
The panel of judges: 30 taste judges ready to go!!!
Day 2
Now live after 70 plus samples.
Some unique creations.
Some great beers.
Blending in with the local judges and enjoying the experience of craft brewers showing their passion and sharing their wealth of knowledge.
Sample 1: Day 2
India Pale Ale: really nice and well balanced. A can smell a nice fruity/piney hop aroma.
My Chilean judge Richard joined me today. Fantastic guy!
This one is really innovative, it's a mix of coffee and cocoa in a beer!
