Indeed, Jeffers Richardson—director of Firestone Walker's Barrelworks wild beer facility—is taking his trailblazing educational show on the road this fall under the banner of "Jeffers Drops Acid…Knowledge," inviting you to explore how acidity shapes your sensory perception of wild beers. "When it comes to wild or sour beers, acidity plays more of a role in the taste experience compared to traditional beers, which are more defined by their hop and malt profiles," Richardson said. "This seminar is designed to explore the role of acidity, and to reveal not only what you are tasting in the beer, but also why."
