“Craftbeer.com Palate Battle: Hops vs Heat”
Julia Herz, Brewers Association Craft Beer Program Director
Chef Adam Dulye, Brewers Association/ CraftBeer.com Executive Chef
Friday 6:00–7:00 pm Location: Breckenridge Ballroom Peak 17
Join Julia Herz and Adam Dulye as they lead you on a palate trip of hops, heat and harmony. Do hops intensify heat or calm heat? It’s the question at the center of a long debate. Test your palate and decide for yourself as you journey through three different levels of hop intensity from small and independent craft brewers. Don’t worry, we have palate warm-up and a cool-down beer planned as well!
