Brews News: Treat dad to an enlightening flight

Brews News highlights that treating dad to a flight lets him sample beers without full commitment. The piece notes that beer flights use trays ranging from chalk-named boards to decorative sleds or lazy Susans. It points out that a four-beer flight is roughly equivalent to a single 473 ml tall-boy can. Two common approaches guide selections when visiting breweries. The progression method starts with a light lager or blonde ale, then moves to hoppier options and finishes with a heavier beer. An alternate strategy is to taste four styles from light to dark, balancing flavors and aromas.
