CBS First Thursday Update

admin — Wed, 06 May 2009 02:12:15 +0000

For all beer-lovers and home brewers heading to Chicago Beer Society’s First Thursday this week, be prepared for some bad beer.

This month, CBS is testing “off-flavor” (aka, crappy) beers. Seems strange, but trying something not-quite-award-winning might just help your palate and improve your judgment.

So go and enjoy some off-flavor, followed by an on flavor like the Bourbon County Stout or 312.

The group’s getting together at 8pm Thursday at the Clyborn Goose Island.
