Homebrew competition at Tin Roof

Local homebrew club Brasseurs a la Maison will host a tasting festival at Tin Roof Brewery this month, featuring the fruits of their Iron Chef-style homebrew competition, Iron Brewer. Each team in the running had to use Louisiana-based ingredients to brew their beer. Attendees to the Tin Roof event on Friday, Feb. 22, will have the opportunity to try beers made with chicory, red beans, jasmine rice, honey, peaches, Louisiana citrus and much more. Each team will serve samples of their beer to anyone 21 and older who brings non-perishable food donations for the Greater Baton Rouge Area Food Bank—no money will be accepted. Food trucks will also be in attendance. Guests will vote to determine the People’s Choice champion. The ultimate winner of the night will be determined by four local celebrity judges who will crown the festival’s “Ultimate Iron Brewer.” Find out more at brbrewers.com.
