Beer School Returns: Spring Reset — Crisp, Clean & Crushable
Winter stouts had their moment.
Now it’s time for patio season.
Join us at GRRROWLER’S Tap Room & Beer Garden in The Colony for March Beer School — a seasonal transition class focused on crisp, refreshing beers built for warmer days and longer nights.
This guided tasting is designed to help you understand what actually makes a beer “crisp,” why light doesn’t mean flavorless, and how fermentation, carbonation, and glassware influence what you taste.
Led by Cicerone Jason Schatzel, this session is educational, approachable, and perfect for both craft beer newcomers and seasoned drinkers ready to reset their palate for spring.
What We’ll Cover
• What makes a beer taste “crisp”
• Lagers vs. ales — fermentation refresher
• Pilsner vs. Helles vs. Kölsch vs. Blonde Ale
• Why “light beer” doesn’t mean boring
• Carbonation, clarity, and perception
• Proper glassware for spring styles
Guided Tasting (Styles May Vary)
• German Pilsner
• Helles Lager
• Kölsch
• American Blonde Ale or Light IPA
Four carefully selected beers. Structured tasting. Real education. No beer flights — just intentional pours designed for learning.
Who This Is For
• Anyone who thinks all light beers taste the same
• Patio season enthusiasts
• Craft beer fans who want to understand what they’re drinking
• Anyone searching for something different to do in The Colony on a Thursday night
Why This Class Matters
Not all light beers are created equal.
Understanding crisp, clean styles will completely change how you order beer this spring — whether you’re at a brewery, a beer garden, or right here at GRRROWLER’S overlooking the dog park.
