The March meeting was taken up sampling several of the S.M.A.S.H. beers. These beers used the same Pale Ale base recipe, but used a unique single hop in each beer. The idea was to see how different hops change the same base beer recipe.
Here is a list of the SMASH beers sampled:
Bob Biffle - Spalt
John Coan - U.K. Target
Shawn Crawford - German Tetnanger
Paul Dolan - Glacier
Jeff Graber - Strissel Spalt
Michael Hinton - German Opal
Ken Kramer - Amarillo
Mike Mosher - U.S. Galena
Mike Ruah - U.K. Bramling Cross
Eric Reinsvold - U.K. Progress
Steve Skinner - German Saphir
Dennis Swingler - German Smaragd
More S.M.A.S.H. beers to come next month.
Other beers tasted:
Neil Fisher - American Milk
Alex Drayer - IPA
Ken Kramer - Wee Heavy
Bryan ?? - Honey Bee Ale
