Great advice from Lauren Salazar of New Belgium
« on: June 27, 2012, 12:52:43 pm »
While this is mostly sour/funk geared...I think its also a good look at what a wonderful process/training a brewery as large as New Belgium has.

At NHC in Denver a few years back, she gave one of the best seminars I've ever seen.

We need more articles/interviews like this!  This keeps the brewing way interesting and makes me look for more things to try (although one step at a time).

That's because she was cute, barefoot and really enthusiastic!

On tasting.  I keep waiting for her presentation to end up on the NHC 2007 website of presentations.

Awesome Q&A!  I liked the comment, “I would rather someone drink New Belgium beer and store someone else’s beer”

This is why I love the brewing community. Some of the most enthusiastic people in the world about what they do and they love to share it and spread the joy.
