Event Description
Panel TWO | Sour Showdown
An irreverent trivia game that blends sour beer nerdom with pop culture guilty pleasures.
Sour Beer. Hundreds of breweries in the United States are dabbling in, dedicating a sour program, and some are even producing only sours. Though the topic is hot and the beer is delicious, “sour beer” is still in its infancy stage and the spotlight is now pointed towards the breweries, the Brewers Association, and the people that created new technology to define specifically what sour beer means.
Before the definition comes to light, the industry first needs to agree on some of the basics of what makes a sour beer and communicate this to the consumer. This conversation will unfold with some of the pioneers of sour beer in the American craft beer industry in a fun game of trivia in front of a live studio audience and broadcast to the world via google hangout.Panelists Include:

Six Pack Stories | About
It may just be four main ingredients: hops, water, barley and yeast, but the people that makeup the craft beer industry, they put their souls into it. They create great beer, new technology, push the standards of marketing and design, and share their passions every day with the end consumer - the craft beer drinker. This is the crossroad where craft beer is no longer simply the four main ingredients; craft beer is a movement.Brought to you by John Gross of Alamo Drafthouse alongside Suzy Shaffer and Courtney Cobb of Blue Owl Brewing, Six Pack Stories is a monthly series of panel discussions that aim to capture the industry where it is right now, showcasing craft beer, facets of the industry, social qualms, and how craft beer positively impacts the community.
"The three of us have worked directly with the craft beer industry for a combined 25 years. It is important to us to give back to this industry that ignited a life-long creative spark within us all. We created Six Pack Stories to to do just that while simultaneously raising money for non-profits that positively impact the community."-- Courtney Cobb
