This week I visited with Cory Smith from Twin Oast Brewing in Port Clinton, Ohio. It has been a couple years since I last visited with Cory and since then there have been several changes. They have added a 60BBL lagering tank to combine with their 30BBL tank. They have also put in a new biergarten which features pour your own beer faucets.The biggest news came in June of 2023 when Twin Oast aquired Catawba Island Brewing Company. This will eventually become a sour beer production facility, and fans of Hot Blonde don't need to worry as they will continue to brew that year round. This Friday and Saturday 9/29 and 9/30 Twin Oast will be hosting their annual Oastoberfest. You can buy tickets online through 9/26. After that you will need to purchase them at the door. They are $5 for Friday and $10 for Saturday. There will be plenty of entertainment as well as 19 breweries serving up their beer. If you have time you should definitely check it out.

This week I visited with Jeff and Shari Bailey at Auburn Acres Hop Farm in Auburn, Ohio. They started growing hops in a small section of their property for their home brews early on, and after 8 years they have grown it to 1 acre featuring hop varieties such as Triple Pearle, Vista, Chinook, and Triumph. During our sit down we talked about everything that is involved in running a hop farm including the prep work in the spring to post harvest.

In this episode Bob and I get ready for Oktoberfest season by covering Festbier. Oktoberfestbier or Festbier is a German-style of low fermentation beer that is very similar to lagers in its blonde color but also in the fact that it is fermented at a cooler temperature than ales. We could also define it as a German blonde lager relatively soft and limpid in the mouth.   Examples of this style: 1.     Fat Heads Oktoberfest 2.     Wolf's Ridge - Oktoberfest 3.     Great Lakes Brewing Company – Oktoberfest   Beer Representation: Festbier - Columbus Brewing 5.3% ABV N/A IBUs Beer Description: Oktoberfest style lager Let's first talk about the characteristics of this style of beer: ABV: 5.8-6.3% IBUs: 18-25 Color: 4-6 Serving Temp: 45-50 Serving Pressure: 10-12 PSI Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

In this episode Bob and I look at the Helles Bock. Also called “heller bock” (meaning “pale bock”), the German-style Maibock is paler in color and more hop-centric than traditional bock beers. A lightly toasted and/or bready malt character is often evident.   Examples of this style: 1.     Ayinger – Maibock 2.     Rogue – Dead Guy Ale 3.     Magic City Brewing Company – But I thought everything was okay.     ABV: 6.3-7.4% IBUs: 23-35 Color: 6-9 Serving Temp: 38-45 Serving Pressure: 10-14 PSI   Beer Representation: Maibark 6.5% ABV 19 IBUs Beer Description: Golden, easy drinking, traditional example of Maibock. All German grains, yeast and hops.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link. Just click the link here or on my website and do your shopping as you would normally.

This week I was in Newark, Ohio and I sat down with Heather and Josh Lange who own Dankhouse Brewing. Dankhouse has always been a favorite of mine as they specialize in Hazy IPAs and Sours. While sours aren't my jam anymore I do quite like theirs. During the show we talked about how Dankhouse was born from a homebrewing dream in a garage, and how Josh developed the business plan in his work van. The original plan was to own start craft beer bottle shop, but once a large chain grocery store put the kibosh to those plans the brewery quickly took flight. In the end we should all be glad that the bottle shop idea failed, and the brewery idea prevailed. Beer Selection: ·       Super Fantastic – American IPA 7% ·       Hop Files 2 – 8.5% ·       Garbage Ale Suds – Smoothie Sour 5.6% ·       Tweek-N-Gnomes – Imperial Stout 8%   You can find Dankhouse Brewing Company on the web at https://dankhousebrewing.com/home and you can also see them on FB and IG @dankhousebrews.

There is plenty of food options, a massive patio, and yes dogs are most certainly allowed on the patio. During the interview Ann talked about falling in love with brewing in the 90s and then taking a break for 10 years only to have the spark once again be re-ignited in the early 2010s. She brewed commercially off and on and got some really good on the job training collaborating with a number of local breweries.  Beer Selection:  Summer of '89 Cream Ale – 5%  Alpha & Omega Honey Kolsch – 5.1%  Come, Sit, Stay Hazy IPA – 7.1%  Haymaker Milk Stout - 7.1%     You can find Four Paws Brewing Company on the web at https://www.fourpawsbeer.com/ and you can also see them on FB and IG @fourpawsbrewing.

In this episode Bob and I take on an interesting category. We discsuss the American Brown Ale, which in theory looks like a version of the English brown, but jacked up on hops (allegedly). American brown ale with roasted malt, caramel-like and chocolate-like characters should be of medium intensity in both flavor and aroma for the American brown ale. American-style brown ales have evident low to medium hop flavor and aroma and medium to high hop bitterness. The history of this style dates back to U.S. homebrewers who were inspired by English-style brown ales and porters. It sits in flavor between those British styles and is more bitter than both.   Examples of this style: 1.     HiHo – Touchdown Brown 2.     Treehouse – Bear 3.     Wrecking Crew Brew Works – Shotgun Banister   ABV: 4.3-6.2% IBUs: 18-35 Color: 18-35 Serving Temp: 45-50F Serving Pressure: 5-8 PSI   Beer Representation: Jackie O's - Chomolungma 6.5% ABV 33 IBUs Beer Description: This brown ale was brewed to commemorate the 2007 Lungevity Everest Expedition. The people of Tibet call Mt. Everest “Chomolungma,” and this exceptional ale carries on the spirit of the climb. Seven Malts, three hops, and 100 pounds of local wild flower honey give this ale an exceptional character. Baked muffins, dark fruit, bittersweet chocolate, rich honey and earthy subtle hops caress the palate.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

In this episode Bob and I continue our trek down the IPA road as we explore the English IPA. English IPA - Strong, bitter and completely misunderstood, the English India pale ale (or English IPA) bridges the gap between past and present. No other style represents modern craft brewing excitement quite like the IPA, and while this English beer differs widely from the American version it inspires, this strong member of the English pale ale family has plenty of its own to offer — including all of the history behind this variety.   Beer Representation: Great Lakes Brewing Company – Commodore Perry 7.7% ABV 70 IBUs Beer Description: What's this? A British-style IPA named after the man who defeated His Majesty's Royal Navy in the War of 1812? Consider this a bold, hoppy (and mildly ironic) plunder of war. Dry and well-hopped, with an arsenal of caramel malt flavors befitting the “Hero of Lake Erie.”   ABV: 5-7.5% IBUs: 40-60 Color: 6-14 Serving Temp: 45-55F Serving Pressure: 7-13 PSI   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

This week I was out west again in Toledo, Ohio. I got to spend some time with Alex and Ali Drosdowicz who are co-owners of Quenched and Tempered Brewing Company.

In this episode Bob and I continue to drink hoppy beers. This week we throttle the IBUs back a bit and take on the American Pale. Like many others that have become known as classic American beers, the American pale ale can trace its roots to beer styles from abroad. The American pale ale beer was inspired by the English pale ale, replacing its English counterpart's earthy, herbal hops with generous additions of boldly citrus and pine-like American varieties. As one of the most popular American beer styles, pale ale beer is not hard to track down, but the various takes on this iconic style by just as many American craft brewers makes it impossible to jam everything there is to know about American pale ale beer on one page, but we'll do our best.   ABV: 4.5-6.2% IBUs: 30-50 Color: 5-10 Serving Temp: 45-50F Serving Pressure: 7-13 PSI   Beer Representation: Sierra Nevada – Pale Ale 5.6% ABV 38 IBUs Beer Description: Our most popular beer, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is a delightful interpretation of a classic style. It has a deep amber color and an exceptionally full-bodied, complex character. Generous quantities of premium Cascade hops give the Pale Ale its fragrant bouquet and spicy flavor.   Second representation: The Dancing Gnome – Lustra 5.8% ABV 45 IBU Beer Description: An ode to the unity of malted barley, hops, yeast, water, and the brewer who prudently blends them. Intense tropical and citrus fruit aromas and a clean fruity bitterness work in harmony with the lightly toasted wheat bread flavors derived from the malt.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

In this episode Bob and I continue our trek down the IPA road and we explore the Double IPA. American craft beer lovers are huge fans of the IPA. The quest for more of the India pale ale flavor has led them to the imperial India pale ale, a stronger version of the American IPA, which boasts even more hoppy flavor, aroma and bitterness. Imperial India pale ale is darker in color than the American IPA, substantially more bitter, and high in alcohol by volume. This all-American take on the IPA leaves craft beer fans with plenty of new creations to try.     Examples of this style: 1.     Russian River – Pliny the Elder 2.     Fatheads – Hop Ju Ju 3.     Great Lakes Brewing Company – Chill Wave   ABV: 7.5-10% IBUs: 60-100 Color: 6-14 Serving Temp: 45-55F Serving Pressure: 7-13 PSI   Beer Representation: Columbus Brewing - Bodhi 8.3% ABV  80 IBUs   Beer Description: Award-winning double IPA featuring Citra® hops with a pale golden color.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

This week I was down in Delaware, Ohio hanging with Frank Barickman who is the owner and head brewer at Restoration Brew Works. Frank and I discussed the brewery's opening in 2015, and how they survived through 2020. We also talked a lot about how breweries need to evolve in 2023 to remain successful. During the interview we drank some very tasty beers including a Pilsner featuring a new aged lager yeast that helps it finish out fast like an Ale while still maintaining a traditional lager taste. We also drank an award-winning Irish Red that they often use as a gateway beer for non-craft beer drinkers to convert them. At the end we drank a delicious Russian Imperial Stout from 2021. Beer Selection: ·       Sulky – German Pilsner 5.4 % ·       Stewart Red – Irish Red 5.9% ·       Cosmic Juice – American IPA 6.7% ·       Silverback – Russian Imperial Stout 11.5% ·       Eclipse Black Lager – Schwarzbier 5%   You can find Restoration Brew Works on the web at https://restorationbrewworx.com/  and you can also see them on FB @rbwrx and IG at @rbworx.   Get your tickets to the Lorain County Beerfest or better known as the Brewfest Waterfront District.

In this episode Bob and I stay on the IPA train, and turn our attention to the Hazy IPA.  Emphasizing hop aroma and flavor without bracing bitterness, the New England IPA leans heavily on late and dry hopping techniques to deliver a bursting juicy, tropical hop experience. The skillful balance of technique and ingredient selection, often including the addition of wheat or oats, lends an alluring haze to this popular take on the American IPA.   Examples of this style: 1.     Treehouse – Julius 2.     Masthead Brewing Company – Hazy Headlines 3.     The Alchemist – Heady Topper 4.     Crooked Pecker – Max went to Prague   ABV: 6-9% IBUs: 25-60 Color: 3-7 Serving Temp: 45-55F Serving Pressure: 7-13 PSI   Beer Representation: Tickling the Ivories – Hoof Hearted 7.2% ABV N/A IBUs   Beer Description: “Totally dusted,” started Pablo Cruz. “And I can truly say I've never felt better. Posers often overcomplicate it, but I've found all truths associated with the act are easily encapsulated in a few words. Skiing is a dance, and the mountain always leads.” Re-tune that Keytar boiz. We're bustin Rig out of Ski Jail! Citra, Calypso, and Comet carve a trail full o' tropics complimented in full by a dual-duty hazemaker. Is it juice? From concentrate? What'd you say the name of that was again?   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

American wheat beers are some of the most approachable beers in the craft beer world, and the versatility of wheat beer allows it to be combined with a variety of ingredients or enjoyed on its own alongside a wide variety of food options. The sizable portion of wheat malt used to brew wheat beer lends a lighter, distinctive experience compared to beers brewed with barley exclusively.   Examples of this style: 1.     Lagunitas – Little Sumpin' Sumpin 2.     Three Floyd's– Gumballhead 3.     Dogfish Head – Namaste   ABV: 4.0-5.5% IBUs: 15-30 Color: 3-6 Serving Temp: 40-45F Serving Pressure: 15-20 PSI   Beer Representation: Oberon – Bell's Brewery 5.8% ABV 10 IBUs Beer Description: Bell's Oberon is a wheat ale fermented with Bell's signature house ale yeast, mixing a spicy hop character with mildly fruity aromas. The addition of wheat malt lends a smooth mouthfeel, making it a classic summer beer.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

This week I celebrate my 100th episode with a visit to Cambridge, Ohio. This week's brewery visit was at Guernsey Brewhouse, and I got to sit down with Shawn Long who is the co-owner of Guernsey Brewhouse along with his wife Amy. We were also joined by Shawn's co-brewer Tony Wray. We talked about the history of Cambridge and its lack of brewing history. We discussed the challenge of being a rural brewery and the challenges of being discovered by brewery explorers. This led to Shawn making a very solid point that your regulars are the ones that sustains business due their reliability, which makes it very important to brew great beer that they want to drink. I can tell you that there is no shortage of great beer at Guernsey Brewhouse. We enjoyed a lager, shandy, hazy IPA, and Imperial stout. Beer Selection: ·       Guernsey Lager – 4.5% ·       Spaceman IPA w/ Cryo Hops –7.25% ·       Lemon Shandy –4% ·       S-Bridge Stout  – 9% You can find Guernsey Brewhouse on the web at http://www.guernseybrewhouse.com/ and you can also see them on FB and IG at @guernseybrewhouse.

Henmick has a huge amount of outdoor space to accommodate some larger crowds that they often see come through the doors Thursday through Sunday. The beers at Henmick run the gamut. Their portfolio incudes lagers, IPAs, Belgian style beer, farmhouse Saison, to stouts. During the show Nick talked about how it has been a dream of his to own a brewery for over two decades.

In this episode Bob and I stay home in the U.S. and follow the Blonde Ale with the Cream Ale. The American cream ale is a mild, pale, light-bodied ale, made using a warm fermentation (top or bottom fermenting yeast) and cold lagering. Despite being called an ale, when being judged in competitions it is acceptable for brewers to use lager yeast.   Style examples: 1.     Wolf's Ridge Day Break 2.     Uniontown Brewing – Jail Hill Cream Ale 3.     Paradigm Shift Brewing Company – Island Juice   ABV: 4.2-5.6% IBUs: 8-20 Color: 2-5 Serving Temp: 40-45F Serving Pressure: 10-12 PSI   Beer Representation: Wrecking Crew Brew Works – Copper Penny Cream Ale ABV: 5.6% IBUs: 13 Beer Description: This straw colored cream ale is made with the choicest ingredients and aged for like a day. This beer is dedicated to an old watering hole in Seven Hills, OH where the beer was cheap and Genesee beer flowed like water.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

In this episode Bob and I come back home for another crushable summer beer style. This week we drink and talk about the American Blonde Ale. One of the most approachable styles, a golden or blonde ale is an easy-drinking beer that is visually appealing and has no particularly dominating malt or hop characteristics. Rounded and smooth, it is an American classic known for its simplicity. Sometimes referred to as “golden ale.” These beers can have honey, spices and fruit added, and may be fermented with lager or ale yeast.   Style examples: 1.     Wadsworth Brewing Company – Thelma Lou 2.     The Phoenix Brewing Company – Persephone 3.     Ignite Brewing Company – Matchstick Blonde   ABV: 3.8-5.5% IBUs: 15-28 Color: 3-6 Serving Temp: 40-45F Serving Pressure: 7-13 PSI   Beer Representation: Twin Oast Brewing Company – Old Ohio 4.7% ABV 20 IBUs Beer Description: Sometimes you just want an easy-drinking, light-bodied beer -- Old Ohio is just that. Brewed to be balanced, this American Blonde Ale finishes with subtle citrus tones, and is the perfect beer to reach for after a long day on the farm.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

In this episode Bob and I switch to one of the most delicious beer styles in all the world, Kolsch. Kölsch is one of the most strictly defined beer styles in Germany: according to the Konvention, it is a pale, highly attenuated, hoppy, bright (i.e. filtered and not cloudy) top-fermenting beer, and must be brewed according to the Reinheitsgebot.   Style examples: 1.     JAFB – Kemp's Kolsch 2.     Saint Arnold Brewing Company – Fancy Lawn Mower Beer 3.     Colner Hofbrau Fruh – Fruh Kolsch   ABV: 4.4 – 5.2% IBUs: 18-30 Color: 3.5 - 5 Serving Temp: 40-45F Serving Pressure: 10-12 PSI   Beer Representation: The Brewer of Seville Kolsch and the Gang 5.1% ABV 27 IBUs   Beer Description: Fermented low (63F) and under pressure this beer produces a slight breadiness which blends nicely with the floral notes from the Hallertau Mittelfruh hops. At the end the beer dries out slowly to produce a nice crushable summer time lawn mower beer.   Beer Representation: Tree House Brewing - Outlier ABV: 4.3% IBUs: N/A   Beer Description: Outlier is a Kolsch-style ale brewed to be eminently drinkable yet loaded with nuance, character, and individuality. It pours a glowing translucent yellow color in the glass with a puffy head that sticks around while you enjoy it. We taste a kiss of lemon, earthy noble hops, doughy malts, a hint of pear, gentle minerality, and a pleasant whisper of wheat that sticks around on the finish. Outlier is a beer brewed with tradition in mind, and the idea that nuanced, carefully crafted beers can enhance living in ways that few other beers can. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

This week I sat down with Doug Reynolds at Uniontown Brewing in Ashland, Ohio. Doug has been on the show a couple of times before, but the last time we sat down in the tap room was November of 2020. Doug talked to me about some of the growth that has happened at Uniontown over the past couple of years including adding a new fermenter and the addition of more tap handles. We discussed how inflation has impacted them on both the food and beer side of things. Doug also broke the news to us that they pulled the trigger on a new canning line that will be in place by the end of June.

In this episode Bob and I keep crushing lagers. This week we travel to Munich, Germany and look into the Munich Helles lager. A beer for beer lovers, the German-style helles is a malt accented lager beer that balances a pleasant malt sweetness and body with floral Noble hops and restrained bitterness. The helles is a masterclass in restraint, subtly and drinkability which makes it an enduring style for true beer lovers and an elusive style for craft brewers to recreate. The German helles reminds beer lovers that the simple things in life are usually the most rewarding and worth pursuing.   Style examples: 1.     Masthead – Augenblick 2.     Wooly Pig Farm Brewery – Rustic Helles 3.     Noble Beast Brewing Co. – Third Dimension Helles     ABV: 4.7-5.4% IBUs: 16-22 Color: 3-5 Serving Temp: 38-40F Serving Pressure: 7-12psi   Beer Representation: Wanderer ABV: 5%  IBUs: N/A Beer Description: Wanderer is our unfiltered German-style Helles Lager. A meticulous, highly technical beer brewed utilizing traditional techniques and ingredients, Wanderer is crisp, bright, and immensely enjoyable. Wanderer pours a brilliant straw gold color in the glass with a puffy, bright white foam. It carries a flavor profile of doughy malts, light straw, clean lager yeast, and just the right dash of zippy noble hops. Beers that command your attention are a wonderful thing. Beers that can fade into the background and sort of be an unspoken companion to celebratory moments in life are also a wonderful thing and deserve to be held in equally high esteem. As a crisp, highly drinkable, and beautifully executed beer, Wanderer fits this profile beautifully.   Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

In this episode Bob and I head back to Germany to drink one of our favorite styles, the Schwarzbier. Sometimes called black lagers (the name literally means black beer), they may remind some of German-style dunkels, but Schwarzbiers are drier, darker and more roast-oriented. These very dark brown to black beers have a surprisingly pale-colored foam head (not excessively brown) with good cling quality. They have a mild roasted malt character without the associated bitterness. Malt flavor and aroma is at low to medium levels of sweetness.   Style examples: 1.     Samuel Adams – Black Lager 2.     Weeping Radish - Black Radish Dark Lager 3.     Kostritzer – Schwarzbier   ABV: 4.4-5.4%% IBUs: 20-35 Color: 19-30 Serving Temp: 40-45   Beer Representation: Mast Head Brewing Company – Svartalfheim Schwarzbier 5.3% and N/A IBUs   Beer Description: Sometimes called black lagers (the name literally means black beer), they may remind some of German-style dunkels, but Schwarzbiers are drier, darker and more roast-oriented.

In this episode Bob and I stick with lagers, but instead of Germany or the U.S. this time we head to the Czech Republic, and tackle the Czech Pale Lager.  The Czech Pale Lager is a hoppy, session-strength pale lager that is among the most popular styles of beer among drinkers in the Czech Republic. The guidelines give us something of a mish-mash of guidance, though. The beer should be "rich" and "refreshing," which can be a tough needle to thread, though not impossible.   Style examples: 1.     Bernard světlé pivo 10 2.     Notch Session Pils 3.     Radegast Rázna 10   ABV: 3-4.1% IBUs: 20-35 Color: 3-6 Serving Temp: 40-45F Serving Pressure: 10-14 PSI   Our sample beer for the week:   Beer representation for the week: Žatecký Světlý Ležák which translated to Zatecky Light Lager 5.0% ABV and 19 IBUs   Beer Description: Over 650 years of cultivation tradition, the experience of local hop growers and a unique microclimate give Žatec aromatic hops an unusual character. Experience its full aroma in Žatec Světlý Ležák brewed under the supervision of Tomas Lejsek from the Žatec Brewery.     Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

This week I sat down with Mark Burke, Dave Jones, and Zach Osborne from Arrogant Goat Brewing in Bucyrus, Ohio. The guys told me how they were inspired to open a brewery by drinking a craft beer while attending a parade. The rest as they say, is history. All three guys take part in brewing and running the tap room. While the tap room is open two days a week, they have a steady flow of clientele. We talked about the process of opening, and how at times things seemed to grind to a halt thanks to 2020. In the end they just celebrated their 1st year anniversary, and they are having a blast. During the show we sampled some very tasty beers including: Beer Selection: ·       Sunrise Service – Hefeweizen 4.2% ·       The Goat – Red Ale 5.4% ·       With All Due Respect – IPA 6.4% ·       Not My First Time – Dry Stout 4.2% Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

This week Bob and I wrap up our lager kick for now as we discuss the German Pilsner. Quite possibly the most iconic beer style in modern history, the pilsner captured the attention of beer drinkers across the world and inspired a myriad of regional imitations. This lightly colored, exquisitely balanced lager remains one of the most loved beers to enjoy, and one of the most challenging for the brewer to create. Pilsner is characteristically light in color and have a very short finish. The world over, pilsner -style lagers have become the standard beer for many reasons, and American craft brewers have worked hard to put their own unique spin on this classic German beer. A classic German-style pilsner is straw to pale in color with a malty sweetness that can be perceived in aroma and flavor. Perception of hop bitterness is medium to high. Noble-type hop aroma and flavor are moderate and quite obvious. Distinctly different from the Bohemian-style pilsner, this style is lighter in color and body and has a lower perceived hop bitterness. ABV: 4.4 – 5.2% IBUs: 22-40 Color: 2-4 Serving Temp: For most lagers and pilsners, 38 degrees is ideally your low point. Anywhere up to the low-to-mid 40s is fair game. “[Pilsners] are more traditionally [served at] 38 degrees, and are probably best suited there. Serving Pressure: 11-16PSI Examples of this style:  1.      Pauliner – Pils 2.     Wooly Pig– Keller Pils 3.     Lager Heads – Tacklebox Pilsner Drink representative selection of the week: Maize Valley German Style Pilsner 5.2% ABV and 30 IBU  Beer as described by brewer: Brewed with pilsner malts from Dusseldorf Germany accompanied by a touch of carafoam and wheat malts for head retention and foam stability.  The malt profile is light, clean and crisp with hints of breadiness while teetnang and perle hops lend a floral and citrusy hop character.

This week I sat down with Carmone and Duncan Macfarlane from The Phoenix Brewing Company in Mansifeld, Ohio. They are no strangers to the show as Phoenix has appeared two other times in the past. During this visit we talked about some of the ways the brewery has changed over the past couple of years including the addition of the Spirit Room located on the second floor above the tap room. The Spirit Room is a smaller venue that can host a little more than 45 people, and it can be rented out for small gatherings. We also discussed their upcoming 9th anniversary that will take place on April 24th through the 29th which will include a showcase of their popular Ferryman stout in several variants. During the show we drank some outstanding beers including a table beer that clocks in under 3%. Beer Selection: ·       Red Band – American Lager 5.0% ·       The Fledgling – Table Beer 2.5% ·       Big Spring – Farmhouse Saison 5.8% ·       Dark Lylith – Imperial Stout 9.5% Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.

In this episode Bob and I talk about yet another great lager style beer. This week it is the American/International Amber lager. A widely available, sessionable craft beer style that showcases both malt and hops. Amber lagers are a medium-bodied lager with a toasty or caramel-like malt character. Hop bitterness can range from very low to medium-high. Brewers may use decoction mash and dry-hopping to achieve advanced flavors. Style examples: Examples of this style: 1.     Rhinegeist Brewery – Antelope 2.     Dos Equis – Amber 3.     Terrestrial Brewing -  Erie Dusk ABV: 4.5-6.0% IBUs: 8-25 Color: 6-14 Serving Temp: For darker lagers, like Vienna-style, Oktoberfest or Marzen-style lagers, and amber lagers, you'll want to go slightly warmer, in the 45 to 50 range. Stronger lagers, like a dunkel or doppelbock, would do well at 50. Serving Pressure: 10-14 PSI Drink representative selection of the week: GLBC Eliot Ness Amber Lager 6.1% and 27 IBU.  Beer as described by brewer: Admittedly, it's a bit of a paradox to name our Amber Lager for history's most famous agent of prohibition. But it's a smooth, malty (and dare we say, arresting?) paradox.  Support the show by doing your Amazon shopping through our affiliate link.
