March 2013 meeting notes

The Brews Cruize in late FebruaryThe 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
