Founded by a professional brewer, Learn to Brew foments fermented knowledge by providing the information and products to craft flavorful wines at home. During the roughly three-hour winemaking classes, which are scheduled two to three Saturdays per month (call ahead for exact dates), budding vintners learn the basics of the four-week process of home fermentation, gleaning tips on creating vintages that don’t evoke the taste of burnt matches. One of Learn to Brew’s vino virtuosos acquaints students with ingredient selection, the aging and bottling process, and how each component influences the wine’s Myers-Briggs personality type. Quaff questers can use $5 gift certificates to supply future grape-crushing journeys by browsing an ample stock of winemaking equipment, books, kits and other libation-related necessities at the shop.
Learn To Brew
Learn To Brew was created by a professional brewer in an effort to provide patrons with a one-stop-shop for supplies, hands-on classes, and how-to videos for crafting beer and wine. In addition to taps and kegerators for homes or businesses, staff members stock ingredients such as hops, malts, and yeasts. In their classes, they cover everything from balancing acids for wine to fermenting honey for mead.
