GEOLOGY OF BEER:
Second Draft

If you're in Houston during SEG/ AAPG IMAGE 2026 or just live in the area, come discover the role that geology plays in beer through an educational, in-person tasting event! Expert panelists will explain how geological factors can influence the ingredients and flavors in different types of beers and answer your questions.

Each ticket includes 3 beers for the educational experience. Plus, the first 20 people to register receive the infamous "Hydro(beer)ology" ® Drinking Drawdown pint glass (must be also present at the event to receive it). Food items will be available for purchase. After an engaging educational tasting event, grow your geoscience+beer lovers community through interactive networking. We look forward to growing our geology+beer passion with you all!
