Class Act-ivity

Several Sunrise members and friends enjoyed both an in-class instruction time and sit down final to test their knowledge of the craft of fine beer making. Dating back to the Club's 2016 Culinary Classic, and a Silent Auction offer to craft beer and pair with savory faire, The Beverage People of Santa Rosa provided the expertise, and Sunriser's Penny and Paul opened their home for the celebration meal.

The proof, er, evidence is on the palette!
