Whilst larger amounts of coolers have been stored somewhere in the shadow, Hagen showed proudly his \u201cpulled pork\u201d, a huge portion of pork prepared in his large grill for about 18 hours; and then the home brewers started to quench their thirst with non-alcoholic drinks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Very few of the approximately 15 participants had met before, and the curiosity concerning exchanging experiences, tasting homebrew, and hearing numerous anecdotes was big, of course. Consequently, it did not take long until the beer degustation started.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Accompanied by good food (not only the \u201cpulled pork\u201d, but the \u201cbacon bomb\u201d and the chilli boiled in a kettle on the open fire have been outstanding) and in an excellent mood, about thirty different beers were evaluated and tasted:<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Pinta \u2013 A la Grodziskie<\/li>\n<li>Flying \u2013 Holunder<\/li>\n<li>Pinta \u2013 Odsiecz Wiede\u0144ska<\/li>\n<li>Eschenbr\u00e4u \u2013 Berliner Alt<\/li>\n<li>Pinta \u2013 Ognie szcz\u0119\u015bcia<\/li>\n<li>Wippraer \u2013 Schwarzbier<\/li>\n<li>Pinta \u2013 Imperial Wit<\/li>\n<li>Berliner \u2013 Blondes Flandern<\/li>\n<li>Pinta \u2013 Dobry Wiecz\u00f3r<\/li>\n<li>Gambas \u2013 Bullwasher IPA<\/li>\n<li>BraumeisterAndy \u2013 Chocolate Stout<\/li>\n<li>Pinta \u2013 Dymy Marcowe<\/li>\n<li>Flying \u2013 Falconer&#8217;s Flight IPA<\/li>\n<li>Worrich&#8217;s Brauhaus \u2013 Forster Zwickel<\/li>\n<li>Bergbiere \u2013 Kriekerischer Saches Lambik<\/li>\n<li>BraumeisterAndy \u2013 Weizendoppelbock mit Nelson Sauvin<\/li>\n<li>Gambas \u2013 IPA<\/li>\n<li>Berliner \u2013 Golding Pils<\/li>\n<li>BasherMcGee \u2013 Lager<\/li>\n<li>Berliner \u2013 Wiener Garde<\/li>\n<li>BasherMcGee \u2013 Weizen<\/li>\n<li>Gambas \u2013 1.
