With so much variety in the world of craft beers going to
the liquor store can at times be a little intimidating. Beer is expensive and you don’t want to
spend money on something you may not like, so why not try hosting a beer
tasting?
“By having a tasting everyone brings a couple of bottles,
everyone gets to try everyone else’s stock and it really doesn’t cost you more
than a four pack. Then you get to
try all these different things so that when you go to the store you know
exactly what you like.” says beer enthusiast Romero Ortiz.
Ortiz has hosted seven beer tastings, co-hosted another
eight, and has attended approximately 50 in his years of legal drinking. I had the chance to sit down and have a
drink with Ortiz at Local Option, where he gave me rundown on hosting a successful
beer tasting.
