How to drink a beer

When I first met Kevin Hooshangi, beer sommelier and owner of Village Pourhouse, he asked me if I knew how to drink a beer.

Now, I’ve drunk plenty of beers, but no one has ever asked if I knew how to drink a beer. So I said, “no.”

And it turned out, I really had no idea what drinking a beer actually involved.

So, here’s a video of Hooshangi setting the beer-swilling peasants of the world straight on the path to proper beer drinking.

Tell your friends.

    There are self proclaimed beer sommeliers popping up in New York City. My question is, where did they get their training and who certified them?

    This guy is a bit knowledgeable but certainly not an authority on beer. There are “experts” everywhere.
