Reviews for Beer Brewing Classes in NYC

Beer Brewing Classes in NYC are rated 4.7 stars based on 228 verified reviews from actual CourseHorse.com purchasers.

  • Really good starter course. Looking forward to getting started on my new hobby

  • I really enjoyed learning about the different bitter scales and the process of beer making. Max the instructor kept the participants engaged with historical facts on beer and there was some hands on participation. There is much more to learn, though this is a great beginner class to make a first brew.

  • They are very patient and making sure you got it .

  • Very knowledgeable instructor, who had a good presentation and helped answer many "extra curricular" questions (around the malting process, mead vs. beer, etc.). Nice store as well, so if you're sold on brewing beer yourself you can stock up on your way out. No pressure at all to make sales, though - just very authentic enthusiasm.

  • The class was both pratical and informative. I learned a lot about the basics of home brewing beer and the instructor was definitely passionate and knowledgable about the subject. We got to taste a pint each of 2 different beers (An IPA and Saison) made in previously classes, and they tasted great. Make sure you have something in your stomach beforehand if you are a lightweight! This would be a great class to bring a date or partner to.

  • I bought this class as a gift for my husband, who is a huge beer lover, but had an unbelievably great time myself too. Lots of new knowledge, very positive vibe in a room, wonderful experience, and lots of beer to taste. We didn’t end up buying supplies and doing it at home, but it was a very enjoyable weekend activity which we were suggesting to friends afterward.

  • The course was super interesting and the instructor was great. We made our own brew and even tasted the previous class (brew) beer. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am interested in home brew.

  • Just as funny as it was knowledgeable! We definitely enjoyed ourselves

  • The class was great, the teachers were very informative and willing to answer questions even after the class was over. They even invited us to come back in a few weeks to try the beer and gave us their card to ask questions at any time. I will be going back to stock up on brewing supplies.

  • Educational, hands on, learned a lot abs drank beers. 5 stars is too low!

  • Really enjoyed the class and learned a load. Time went by really quickly.

  • Awesome. Teacher clearly loved the subject and took a lot of care with instruction. Thanks again (=

  • Very well presented and thoughtful. The expertise of the brewmaster was contagious! Hope to be starting a new craft soon.

  • Great class! Very informative and interactive. Well instructed and enjoyable, hands-on learning experience.

  • Funny and good teacher

  • For a beginner, it was awesome, I had lessons in college, but these were just lessons, and I did not learn much from then... Now I understand, can't wait to go to my next class.

  • Zack was a great teacher. The class was interesting and fun. Thanks!

  • Very informative. Enjoyed everything. Even the beers we tried were delicious.

  • Amazing! Dry hopping our first batch tonight and I cannot wait to see how it turns out! We will definitely be back for more.

  • What a great, informative class taught by a very knowledgeable and friendly teacher! My husband and I had a blast!

  • Amazing class, very informative, great take homes, and all while drinking beer

  • This class was interesting and well run, and the beer was delicious!

  • Very informative. Instructor was clearly passionate about the subject matter, which definitely made the class more enjoyable.

  • I really enjoyed my beer making class. I could tell that the instructor is knowledeable about how to make beer. While he explained the process he helped me see how complex it really is. The class was hands on. I loved it. Tasting the beer was a plus.

  • The teacher was great! This was an informative and fun class

  • This was an incredible and informative class! We had a really fun time and learned a lot! I would highly recommend.

  • It Was Fun!

  • A great follow up to 101. This class followed a similar format to 101 but we were walked through the all-grain process as an alternative to boil in a bag. Very informative with more in depth discussion into the mashing process.

  • Very information. Class began with a beer brewed by a previous class (which they can give away but not sell). We were walked through the entire process of home brewing by boil in a bag technique from a discussion and sampling of the grains used to the water, yeast and hops. After this class we went home and brewed our first batch which has since been bottled and will be ready next week!

  • We really enjoyed it!

  • I personally enjoy very much this class, it was very well explain also fun to learn.

  • Very informative and fun class! Our instructor, Zach, was funny and clearly very passionate about brewing.

  • Very good class, very informative and clear. No step was left out. The instructor was very knowledgeable but also very friendly. They served us 2 large beers during the class, both delicious. If you think you might want to brew your own beer, this is definitely the best way to start.

  • My boyfriend and I took this class and it was awesome! The instructor was incredibly engaging and responsive to questions.

  • I gifted this calss to my boyfriend because he is a super beer lover and wants to start brewing at home, I went with him because I thought it would be fun to learn. The class was super informative, very complete and clear. The instructor and all the employees at the shop are knowledgeable and very charismatic. Dave (I believe is his name) went trough everything in detail and was happy to answer any and all questions - some answers also came with advise rooted from personal experience, which I feel is super valuable. We got to try 2 beers brewed at the shop and we left with a how-to manual and recipe to try. Its great that they have all the equipment available at a reasonable price - we are going back at the end of the month to purchase ours. If you have some experience or no experience at all (like us) and are looking for guidance, this should he your 1st stop. A thousand thumbs up.

  • Great class! Highly recommend.

  • Lots of fun, very knowledgeable instructor. I would highly recommend and will be looking for other classes taught at this shop.

  • Very practical. We felt engaged for the full 2.5 hours - great presenter.

  • Very informative and tons of fun!

  • Loved this class! Very informative, can't wait to come back for another course on beer!

  • Really enjoyed the class! Very informative.

  • The instructor was engaging and entertaining. I learned a lot of the science about hops. Would recommend to anyone who has a curiosity about beer.

  • Excellent and fun class with lots of information. Cool teachers too.

  • Had a really great time learning the brewing process. Great course content, great instructors, great beer.

  • Very Informative, Dave was very helpful. Going back for more brewing classes. Thank you

  • It was a great class! John and Dave did an amazing job. I will totally be going back to Bitters and Esters for more classes.

  • Instructor is great and experience. I got a lot of helpful information from this course!

  • The class was extremely informative and fun (we got to taste 2 different beers, both of which were produced by previous classes). The instructor was great and answered all questions really well.

  • Friendly and knowledgeable, made the process feel accessible to both beginners and more advanced brewers. An engaging experience with participation encouraged and a conversational teaching style. Delicious beer included!

  • Great instruction, great beer, great store
