Brewing Practical Boot Camp

Designed for students in the online Master Brewers Certificate Program, this in-depth course uses the amazing resources of the 1.8 hectoliter pilot brewery in the state-of-the-art brewing facility on the UC Davis campus. This class combines clear and detailed lectures with practical, hands-on brewing and laboratory tests. Go all the way from raw material selection to the quality and stability of the finished beer. A class ale will be brewed, and analyses on barley, malt, hops, yeast, wort and beer will be explored.
