Beer Cocktails
This past weekend, I took a class at the Atlanta Food & Wine Festival that focused on beer cocktails with Ian Cox of Wrecking Bar and Hillary Choo, National Ambassador of St-Germain. They taught us about how beers can be used as a major ingredient in cocktails, bringing out it's flavors by the use of spirits and liqueurs. They provided three different style beers (gose, ipa, lager) and created three unique and tasty cocktails.
