Beer Tasting
Beer Tasting is a characteristic viewable on the Skills tab which increases as varieties of beer are drunk at a Ceremonial Tasting Table. As certain levels of Beer Tasting are reached, the Perception attribute is permanently increased. +1 Perception is earned at a Beer Tasting of 7, and another +1 Perception at 49.
Improving
When you drink a beer, you will be told whether you receive a point in Beer Tasting. It is believed that new and unfamiliar flavor combinations -- and even changes in other qualities such as color -- increase the chance of gaining a point. There appears to be a random factor involved as well, but on the whole, drinking a variety of beers seems the best way to gain Beer Tasting points.
It is possible to get more than one BT point from multiple sips of the same beer. If you get a point, it is worth taking a second drink to see if you get another (provided there is enough beer to go around -- please be respectful of your host and fellow drinkers!).
