SUMMARY:Ground to Glass: Sensory Evaluation of Beer from Local Malted Barley at the Tumwater Brewfest
DESCRIPTION:Do you know who grew your beer? Join local farmers\, local brewers\, and Washington State University Extension at the 2019 Tumwater Artesian Brewfest on August 17th to sample beers made from barley grown in the Chehalis Basin. This event is part of a WSU research effort to identify barley varieties best suited for craft brewing and distilling – specifically for unique flavors from malted barley. \nParticipating breweries include Top Rung\, Packwood Brewing Company\, Well 80\, Singing Hops\, and Three Magnets. The barley was grown by Brian Thompson and Bill Reisinger in Adna Washington (8 miles west of Chehalis\, WA) on productive\, beautiful Chehalis silt-loam soil – some of the best the region has to offer. Funding was provided by the Port of Olympia. \n  \n  \n\nThis community tasting is the culmination of two years of field trials. The aim over the last two years has been to grow large fields of experimental barley for local brewers to experiment with. Barley grown in 2018 was evaluated by consumer panels in Pullman\, WA. Barley grown in 2017 was made into whiskey at Sandstone Distilling and evaluated for flavor compounds at the WSU Wine Science Center in Richland\, WA. The Tumwater Brewfest will compliment these sensory evaluations by allowing for a large-scale community tasting. \nIf you are interested\, join us at the Brewfest! Several breweries will be featuring beers made from the local barley. The same beer brewed from all four varieties will be served under the “Bring Brewing Back” tent\, where community members can complete a brief sensory analysis as part of this participatory research effort. By all means\, join us for a drink in the name of research and community economic development. \nSee more project information at: https://extension.wsu.edu/thurston/specialty-grain/.
