How Your Brain Tastes – A Sensory Beer Experience at Bøgedal
Can you trust your senses when sight, smell and taste are challenged? An entertaining, eye-opening sensory tasting for groups, where expectation and blind elements challenge everything you thought you knew about beer.
How Your Brain Tastes – A Sensory Beer Experience at Bøgedal
Does it affect the taste if you eat popcorn from a red bowl instead of a blue one? Or if chocolate mousse is served on a smooth white plate rather than a rough, dark surface?
Scientific research shows that we taste with all our senses—the brain, eyes, hands, and ears—not just our taste buds.
During this experience, we challenge your palate and explore how your surroundings trick and shape the way you perceive flavor.
What’s Included:
- Brewery Tour: Step inside Scandinavia’s only all-gravity brewery. Hear the story of Bøgedal along with vivid anecdotes from our more than 17 years of uncompromising brewing craft.
- The Sensory Experiment: A guided tasting of 5–7 different Bøgedal beers, where we experiment with different glassware, textures, and pairings with and without food.
- Fresh Insights: You’ll leave with a whole new perspective on your own preferences—and just how easy (and fun) it is to manipulate the brain's sense of taste.
It is thoroughly entertaining and works exceptionally well as a team event—people will be talking about it long after.
