Throw a Beer-Tasting Party at Home!

On my regular appearance on The Today Show this week, I demonstrated how easy it is to bring friends together for a beer-tasting party.  With so many great artisanal beers on the market these days, beer-tasting parties are becoming a very popular and affordable option for entertaining.  Visit a good beer merchant and purchase a variety of brews.  Organize your selections into three flights – light, amber, and dark – and present them to your guests one group at a time.  Match the beers up with a simple tap-room inspired décor and some good snack foods and let the fun begin in your very own gastropub!  To read the complete story, look for the March issue of my magazine, Martha Stewart Living.
