About this Event

Sometimes the classics deserve the spotlight. This Friday, we're heading across the Atlantic to explore three traditional European favorites, from a crisp English apple cider and a rich Yorkshire brown ale to a beautifully balanced German pilsner. Two historic breweries, three distinct styles, and plenty to talk about. Join us from 6 PM to 7 PM as we pour, taste, and explore what makes these old-school styles so enduring.


What we're tasting


Samuel Smith Organic Apple Cider
Made by Yorkshire's oldest brewery, this organic English cider is all about clean, natural apple character. Light-bodied and gently sparkling, it offers fresh apple flavors, delicate apple blossom aromas, and a refreshing medium-dry finish. A lovely example of traditional English cider without excessive sweetness.


Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale
A proper English brown ale brewed in Tadcaster, Yorkshire, using traditional stone Yorkshire Square fermenters. Expect rich, nutty malt flavors reminiscent of toasted walnuts, almonds, and hazelnuts, with a subtle fruitiness and a pleasantly dry finish. Smooth, comforting, and a great reminder of why English brown ales deserve more attention.


Pinkus Organic Ur Pils
From Münster, Germany, Pinkus has been brewing since 1816 and was a pioneer of modern organic brewing. Its Ur Pils is a traditional German pilsner made with organic barley malt and hops. Pale golden in color, with fresh bready malt, delicate floral and herbal hop notes, and a crisp, dry finish with just the right touch of bitterness. A classic German lager with real character.
