Happy Hour Education at GCC & Eli Fish
GCC's BEST Center Partners with Eli Fish Brewing Company Offer Beer Brewing Class
Batavia, NY (12/18/2019) — The BEST Center at Genesee Community College and Eli Fish Brewing Company excitedly announced a new course being offered in Batavia called Beer Brewing - Beyond the Basics! The course is scheduled on six consecutive Tuesday evenings between March 3 and April 7, 2020 from 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. and is limited to just 20 participants. The program consists of four nights in the classroom on GCC's Batavia Campus, a fifth night touring the Eli Fish Brewing Company located in downtown Batavia, and on sixth, final night the group will brew their own "class beer."
What better way to enjoy the final stretch of a WNY winter than learning to brew beer? The six-week course is a perfect gift-giving opportunity - just in time for the holidays. There are now more than 1.1 million people in the United States brewing their own beer at home, and approximately 265,000 are located in the Northeast. Clearly it is a gift that will keep on giving!
Beer Brewing - Beyond the Basics costs only $259 per participant and includes all books and materials. Participants must be 21 years of age. Registration deadline is Monday, February 24, 2020. Beer Brewing - Beyond the Basics is open to any home brewer looking to start or improve his or her process. It also will interest entrepreneurs thinking of starting up a brewery, or simply beer enthusiasts who want to expand their knowledge base, meet other enthusiasts while becoming familiar with Batavia's iconic new brewery located at 109 Main Street.
