  Just because you may enjoy it on weekends doesn't mean there isn't some serious science behind it. San Jose BioCenter presents The Science of Beer featuring Dr. Charlie Bamforth, Dept Chair, Food Science & Technology, UC Davis and Anheuser-Busch Endowed Professor of Brewing Science. Dr. Bamforth's talk will 'tap' into the art and the science of the brewing process as he highlights the health and nutrition of beer. Charlie will have us all believing that "Beer is proof that God loves us". All attendees will receive 1 ticket to the Beer Tasting after Dr. Bamforth's presentation.
