    Beer: A Matter of Science and Perception 74th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Brewing Chemists June 11–15, 2011 Sanibel Harbour Marriott Resort Fort Myers, FL, U.S.A. Photo courtesy of the Lee County Visitor & Convention Bureau. “It’s these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes…” – Jimmy Buffett On behalf of the Program Committee, welcome to the 74th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Brewing Chemists! This is the first time our meeting has been in Fort Myers, Florida, nicknamed the “City of Palms.” Our meeting location is right on the Intercoastal Waterway right across from Sanibel Island, making it a perfect place to get away from the daily grind (brewing pun intended) and to really focus on The Science of Beer. This year, several elements of the program came together to create our theme, Beer: A Matter of Science and Perception. ASBC meetings Jeff Cornell draw many of the best brewing scientists from around the world to present their work and share their knowledge. But scientific research applied to beer and brewing is rarely black or white. Part of that “gray” area involves another science – perception. The way we perceive things touches our professional lives on a daily basis, whether it’s a sensory evaluation of beer or how we go about solving problems. So to explore Table of Contents these areas further, the program features two outstanding speakers: Jeannine Delwiche on “Impact of Multimodal Sensory Input on Perception of Beer Flavor,” and Karl Siebert on “Changing Schedule at a Glance ............... 3 Paradigms.” Also on the perception theme, you’ll find a pre-meeting short course addressing the Program many aspects of beer haze and colloidal stabilization and a sensory workshop focused on mouth- Friday .................................

  • Tettegouche State Park Visitor Center and Mndot Class 1 Safety Rest Area
    Tettegouche State Park Visitor Center and MnDOT Class 1 Safety Rest Area Highlights The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and the Minnesota Department of Transportation are pleased to present the new Tettegouche State Park Visitor Center and Class 1 Safety Rest Area. The shared facility includes a new building, parking facilities and site amenities to complement the natural setting of the landscape. The new site design improves pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular circulation. Building and Grounds: • 11,000-square-foot, fully accessible space (similar in size to the Interpretive Center at Gooseberry Falls State Park) and meets current safety standards. • Expanded restroom facilities open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. • 750-square-foot exhibit space with interpretive panels to help visitors learn about the historical and cultural significance of the area. • Amphitheater. • Gift shop, open area picnic shelter, lakeside patio, and enclosed front porch. • Meeting spaces and multi-purpose room for interpretive programming, as well as community meetings and functions. • Rain garden and storm water management improvements. Energy and Landscape Features: • 24.3 KW photovoltaic array (which is expected to generate 36% of the building’s energy needs). • Energy efficient building design made with sustainable forest products, high efficiency windows, and structural insulated panel (SIP) walls and roof. LED lighting and high-efficiency fixtures are employed throughout the building, parking lots and entrance drive. Safety and Usage: • In 1986, Tettegouche became the first combined state park and safety rest area in the state. It was followed by a partnership at Gooseberry Falls State Park in 1996, and then a similar facility at Grand Portage State Park in 2010.
