Getting tired of staying at home and want to try something different? Take part in an interactive beer tasting facilitated by OxCamNE VP Jason Ng (Turtle Swamp Brewing, Boston)! If you want to learn more about beer, or don’t usually drink beer and want to try something accessible, then this introductory and down to earth session is for you!

In this event we'll compare an East Coast IPA with a West Coast IPA - popular styles that have taken off in recent years! You can find these styles at most retailers that sell beer. (See below for suggested retailers.)

The event is free but pre-registration is required. The zoom link will be sent by email shortly before the event itself.

What you'll need:

• One East Coast IPA can/bottle (suggestions below)

• One West Coast IPA can/bottle (suggestions below)

• Two stemmed glasses, e.g. tulips, snifters or red wine glasses

• Water to clear your palette.
