Bee(r)thoven!
Saturday, November 7, 2020 at 7:00pm @ Hosted on Facebook Live
Binghamton Philharmonic and Binghamton Brewing team up to bring you Bee(r)thoven!
What: A hybrid beer tasting and talk about Beethoven and 1800's beer, fashion, and the transition from Classicism to Romanticism through the lens of beer!
When: From 5-8pm Nov. 6th pick up your beers at Binghamton Brewing. 7pm Nov. 7th Join us on Facebook Live for our virtual tasting.
Where: Pickup location is Binghamton Brewing at 135 Baldwin St, Jonhnson City.
How Much:
Banks of the Rhine Porter | 7.5% ABV | $13
Deep brown like the locks of a young organist growing up in Bonn. Rich chocolate and coffee notes rise from traditional brown malt. A grain whose use declined after Beethoven's passing due in part to Napoleon Bonaparte - once an inspiration to the composer. Four dollars of every sale benefit the Binghamton Philharmonic.
Best served cool in a room temperature tulip glass
Vienna Weissbier | 5.5% ABV | $11
Complex wheat beer made with Vienna malt. Light, but layered flavors, presenting clove spice generated by traditional yeast and white wheat graininess. The popularity of Weissbier spread out from Germany like the maestro himself. It wasn't until after Beethoven's time that lagers rose to dominance. Three dollars of every sale benefit the Binghamton Philharmonic.
Best served cold in a room temperature tall / hefeweizen glass
