Some Like it Hopped – Craft Beer Workshop

On November 7,  Foreign Agricultural Service at the U.S. Embassy in the Czech Republic, in cooperation with the Hop Growers of America, and Beer Academy Czech Republic, contributed to centennial celebrations of U.S. – Czech diplomatic relations with an American hops and craft beer workshop “Some Like it Hopped.”  The topic, equally popular with Americans and Czechs, was presented by Matt Brynildson, the brewmaster at Firestone Walker Brewing Company, in California.  The workshop took place at a popular Prague-area microbrewery/restaurant and included simultaneous translation.  This outreach event welcomed more than 70 brewmasters, home-brewers, hop traders, and press from throughout the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
