Apex Aleworks Homebrew Class • July 17, 2021
Beginners, hobbyists and brewers with any level of experience welcome.
Our Head Brewer, Ben Tatman, will be leading the class.
We may be surprised with a few guest visits from local homebrew clubs like ZZ Hops, Missouri Mashers, and Kansas City Bier Meisters.
The craft recipe for the class is a banana milkshake IPA.
Once tapped it’ll be pouring cold in the taproom and served to patrons. Come back and enjoy the hops of your labors.
Receive hands-on experience from mash-in to knock-out, transfer to the fermentation tank, and concluding with bottling techniques.
Learn how to create the banana-like flavor and creamy mouthfeel using a genetically modified yeast and lactose.
Taught on-site in the Apex Aleworks brewhouse using our 50-gallon brew in a bag pilot system. This system’s processes and techniques are similar to homebrewing.
Homebrewing equipment will be on-site to correlate the brewery’s equipment used in class and the scaled-down equipment used for homebrewing.
