NEW OFFERING FOR 2022 AND CONDUCTED AT MSU DENVER!

The 5-day WBA Fundamentals of Brewing Technology Course will provide students with the primary foundations of the brewing process at an intermediate level. Within a very short timeframe, students will gain a level of brewing knowledge that will benefit them immediately.

Description

The WBA Fundamentals of Brewing Technology is a newly created offering, targeting only the core topics from our more thorough WBA Concise Course in Brewing Technology. The subject matter was carefully selected based on what is considered to be essential brewing knowledge, important to both professional and experienced homebrewers alike. The concept was born out of increasing demand for a shorter intermediate-level educational offering for those with limited time and finances. Also, of importance is if in the future a student would like to take the full WBA Concise Course in Brewing Technology, the tuition paid for the WBA Fundamentals of Brewing Technology will be applied towards a tuition reduction for the WBA Concise Course in Brewing Technology, taken either online or campus.
