For this episode of Brewstilled, I'm joined by Portland Oregon based beer writer and podcaster Jeff Alworth. Jeff is the author of the Beer Bible and is a leading expert on beer. He's also the writer of the blog Beervana. In this episode I talk with Jeff about a wide array of beer topics such as his start as a beer writer, podcaster, where craft beer is today and beer in general. We also discussed what maturity looks like for a city's beer scene. The topic of beer as a whole is discussed as we as beer drinkers may need to see beer beyond the craft beer label. It's a fascinating conversation and it's all here on Brewstilled!

We've always been supporters of Dry January.  We love beer, but we know you need to take it easy sometimes and if you want to take January to purge your liver, we're all about it.  But... a side effect of that is that our pubs and breweries have an even slower month in a month that's already traditionally slow.With that in mind, Jeff Alworth at Beervana suggested we make it #PubJanuary.  You can still stay dry if you choose to, but go out to your pubs (or breweries, if appropriate) and have a meal with some friends or family.  Show them love, give them business, we know it's a tough time out there and they need all the support they can get.  We're totally on board with that.New Jersey beer bill heads to governorWe've updated this throughout the year and it looks like a bill was reached that made everyone, including the governor, happy.  It passed nearly unanimously in both houses - some chose to abstain from voting, but everyone that did vote was in support.  Now, it's headed back to the governor's desk for a signature.  Good luck, NJ!Asahi buys Octopi BrewingAnother big acquisition.  Octopi is a contract brewer whose owner also owns Untitled Art, who offers up some tasty NA and not-NA beers.  Asahi acquired Octopi recently.  More details in the show!Call the PPO Police!Beer Twitter sprung into action this week when Other Half's new Chicago taproom opened with some pints costing $16.  The addressed it quickly and prices were lowered, with the highest priced pint now at $9.  But still, $16 to start.  Madness.  Related, we talk about pricing at NFL stadiums.  Where is a beer a (relative) steal and who's robbing you?Beer Guys out and aboutWe've got a few events coming up soon so come see us if you're in the area.

Apparently Germany has a raccoon problem.  Drunken ones at that.  The population has exploded in recent years and the furry troublemakers are breaking into homes, tearing stuff, and getting lit.  They sound like they'd be cool to hangout with. We got a new beer style, or do we?  I've been using my skeptical face lately with some of these new beer styles.  Apparently, West Coast Pilsner is a thing.  But it sounds like the flavor isn't what you'd expect from something with "West Coast" in the name.British Brewers battered by Brexit.  In addition to the standard issues facing brewers today it sounds like Brexit is causing grief for some of Britain's brewers.  Many are noting huge losses of export sales due to Brexit, and some are closing.  That'll teach 'em.Billy Busch Wants To Make Bud Light Great Again.  Ol' Billy claimed on a recent interview he'd buy back the brand.  Sounds like just some puffing of the chest for attention, but who even knows these days.Vintage... fish?  You know Brian and I are currently going through a tinned seafood phase.  As dive into this more we are learning so many fun things.  Like there are "vintage" tins of sardines.  Apparently the flavors mellow with a few years age on them and soak up more of whatever they're canned in - oil, tomato sauce, peppers..  From what I've seen so far about 5 years is as you want to go.  I'm curious to try some cellared fish, and a bit scared.IT'S BEER FEST TIME Y'ALL!!!

New Zealand's premier beer festival, Beervana, gets underway today, despite the industry as a whole facing some particularly challenging times. Large increases in excise tax, ingredient costs and ongoing struggles with CO2 gas supplies has made things tough for breweries in recent months, and in the past few weeks, two Auckland-based craft breweries - Epic and Brother's Beer - have gone into liquidation. But that's not stopping about 50 breweries going all-out and showcasing their wares at Beervana. Festival manager Ryan McArthur spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Wellingtonians are finally snapping up tickets to the city's craft beer festival. Two Beervana sessions are fully sold out, overturning concerns people weren't keen this year. Event Manager Ryan McArthur says there's a lot to get excited about this weekend. He says almost 60 breweries are represented, some from Australia, and about 340 brews to try.

In their latest Fireside Chat, Breakside Brewery's Ben Edmunds and Beervana's Jeff Alworth speak with three brewers whose breweries do not make hoppy ales. We wanted to hear why they chose this path, and what it entails. Because IPAs are overwhelmingly popular among craft beer drinkers, these breweries have had to create interest in other types of beer. How did they do that? And how does the future look for these breweries? Guests in this show: • Bill Arnott, Founder and Brewer of Seattle's Machine House Brewing. • Dan Carey, Co-founder and Brewer of Wisconsin's New Glarus Brewing. • Alex Ganum, Founder and Brewer at Portland's Upright Brewing.

[Note: Dodgy audio! Our field mic may be on the fritz! Apologies!] It's been a minute since our last show. In the weeks since we last spoke, various events have transpired. Patrick has been to London and back. Jeff has been to Tillamook. The King of England was fêted by BrewDog—and then unfêted. The Belgians expressed displeasure with the Champagne of Beers. Portland lost an icon. Lots of stuff to talk about, so for this show, we thought we'd head to a pub and do a proper catch-up over beers.

After a short delay, the April episode of GBNTB is ready to go! This month we are joined by Mike Tysarczyk of Dancing Gnome and the PGH Brewer's Guild. And we're not talking about a short guest segment, this time Mike sits in for the entire episode. We start off with a new review, then we talk about the closure of BrewDog Pittsburgh. Next, I read a short article from Beervana about craft becoming the "sick man of beer" and get Mike and Andrew's reaction. After a short break, we look ahead to April 12th (4-1-2... get it?) and the start of Three Rivers Beer Week.  Andrew tells us more about the return of the Imperial Breakfast, now hosted at Dancing Gnome on the 12th, and Mike fills us in on some of the other events, releases, etc that we can expect during the week. We close out the show by learning about Andrew's high school musical past before another round of Watch, Listen, Learn. Thanks for listening! Intro & Outro music by: Kabbalistic Village Break music by: Joseph McDade

Oregon is pretty close to my own personal idea of perfection. It has a little bit of everything, from vibrant, engaging cities, to sweeping, picturesque coastlines, and mountain high deserts. While the landscape is fascinating, the people and the culture might surpass it. Tucked into the northwestern corner of this Pacific Northwest gem of a state is a city with an outsized beer reputation. Today we're exploring Portland, Oregon. Known for its outdoor friendly lifestyle, craft breweries, coffee scene, and the looming presence of nearby Mount Hood, Portland is vibrant, lively, and full of character and characters. And in this episode, we explore not only the great local beer scene but the cast of characters who have put Portland firmly in the center of any discussion about the world's greatest beer cities. And to do so, we're joined today by perhaps the two best sources for the local beer scene.Jeff Alworth is a long-time beer writer, author of several books, including The Beer Bible, and the co-host of the Beervana Podcast. He has taught courses about beer and the business of beer and has freelanced for a bunch of publications. He is also one of the last beer bloggers standing. Jeff frequently posts his thoughts on beer, culture, and business at his award-winning blog, Beervana. He is a passionate advocate for all things Portland beer and we're lucky to have him this week to help guide us. Our second guest is Ezra Johnson-Greenough, who is the founder of The New School, which is a great webmagazine covering beer and cider in Oregon and Washington. New School is the kind of resource that every beer loving region would be lucky to have and as Jeff says, Ezra is the most plugged in source to the beer happenings in Portland you'll find. A native Portlander, Ezra covers beer industry news, style trends, and does interviews and offers commentary, along with organizing festivals and events. Stay tuned at the end of the episode to hear my favorite local place to have a beer and the place is a true character itself. No one episode could hope to capture all that Portland has to offer but that's not our purpose on this show. We're here to talk about the best of Portland's beer scene. So let's get our Portland visit started with special guests Jeff Alworth and Ezra Johnson-Greenough.This Episode is Sponsored by:Pub Culture BeercationsStop living vicariously through other people's social media posts and get out and make some memories of your own!

Known as Beervana for a reason, Portland, Oregon is maybe the premier beer destination city in the United States. Summer Craig recently spent some time getting to know the beers of the Pacific Northwest, and he got some help from accomplished beer writer Jeff Alworth. The Beer Bible author gives us the story of Portland's beer proclivities and how they don't always follow the national trends. Also, Jeff gives us good Portland beer history, explains how the hazy trend might've actually started out west, and tells us whether or not “smoothie sours” made it into the recent reprinting of his book. We also review five stellar beers from Portland breweries, yell stuff at HackerMan, conceptualize Inkblot Brewing, and try to solve a beer snob mystery.

One of the biggest fans of New Zealand craft beer has just landed in the country.

If you're a beer enthusiast, you've likely come across Jeff Alworth at some point. The longtime blogger, journalist, author, and podcaster is one of the most valued in the country, and his research and storytelling is nearly unmatched. This isn't meant to be hyperbole, as the reason Jeff and I are talking on this episode is because we got to catch up as he traveled the country to promote the second edition of his book, The Beer Bible. We sat down outside at Asheville, North Carolina's Zillicoah Beer Company, to talk about his book and his own education and growth as a journalist and human. In the first half of this conversation you'll learn about what went into creating The Beer Bible and then recreating new parts of it for its new edition, and on the back half we chat about what it means to explore ideas of beer today, whether that's the hops that go into a beer, or the way we think about styles. And if you haven't yet read, heard, or met Jeff, I hope this conversation is a worthy introduction to someone who is kind and meaningful in their work and how they move in the world. We can learn a lot about beer by reading and listening to Jeff's work, but I hope this episode helps you appreciate him as a person as well.

If you've ever been on a brewery tour, it's highly likely that you've been told that the Reinheitsgebot is the centuries-old German purity law regarding the only ingredients permitted for a beverage to be called “beer”. Carolyn, Katie, Lisa, and Thandi talk about the history of this law in Germany: what it is, when it was active, where exactly, and why. They discuss the possible role of religion in the law, myths and interpretations of the law in other countries, German breweries using other ingredients, and what their favourite German beer styles are. Beers in this episode:Live Oak, Austin TX, USA - ‘Primus' Weizendoppelbock 8% - https://untappd.com/b/live-oak-brewing-company-primus/9966Rothaus, Grafenhausen, Germany - Hefeweizen 5.4%- https://untappd.com/b/badische-staatsbrauerei-rothaus-hefeweizen-weizenzapfle/2393Hofbräuhaus, Munich, Germany - ‘Hofbräu' Oktoberfest 6.3% -- https://untappd.com/b/staatliches-hofbrauhaus-munchen-hofbrau-oktoberfestbier/40139#Spaten-Franziskaner-Löwenbräu, Munich, Germany - ‘Franziskaner Weissbier Naturtrüb' Hefeweizen 5% - https://untappd.com/b/spaten-franziskaner-lowenbrau-gruppe-franziskaner-premium-weissbier/14564Links:Will the real Reinheitsgebot please stand up?

Portland lost another of its earliest and most significant breweries, and a newcomer to town in search of beer glory in Beervana abruptly shuttered its Portland operations.It's time for our occasional check in with Andre Meunier, the Oregonian and OregonLive's beer writer. Meunier is also a breaking news editor. We talked about Hair of the Dog's closure, Modern Times flaming out in Portland, what it all means and what trends he's highlighting in his weekly newsletter. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Jeff Alworth, an award-winning beer writer based in Portland, Oregon is our guest this week. Jeff has authored five books on beer, The Widmer Way, The Secrets of Master Brewers, Cider Made Simple, Beer Tasting Tool Kit, and The Beer Bible. A second edition of the Beer Bible was released in September 2021, and we took the opportunity to discuss beer broadly and through a social lens. We explore evolutions within the brewing world, fluidity of beer styles, how the proliferation of information on traditional Scandinavian and Baltic beers impacted his thinking of farmhouse ales, and how his telling of beer history has shifted. Whether you're new to beer or have tried 10,000 beers The Beer Bible is an inviting, enriching read. Jeff publishes almost daily on his blog Beervana, which you'll find linked in the episode notes.

Back for a second year, and this time we plan to get it absolutely right.

Welcome To Craft Beer's ONLY Voice of Reality Episode 16 Our guest today is Chad Mitchell from BeerVana International in Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia. They distribute beer from all over the world but have an especially strong affinity for what we call American Craft Beer. As you'll hear, they are an anomaly in beer distribution; they actually care about the art and craft of the beer they represent. They believe in giving honest feedback, legitimate sales projections and partying like you love your job. They are beer nerds in a beer job and just listening to Chad's passion should inspire you to be better at what you do. Because I care about making you better in your career I asked Chad to talk to us about what his team looks for in a supplier partner and how you and your brewery can partner with them to tackle Southeast Asia. You'll hear my guests and I discuss depth vs width in regards to your distribution footprint and I believe you need both to diversify your sales channels enough to weather the inevitable storms in your future. He talks about mistakes he's seen, mistakes he's made and how breweries can learn from both. Chad's a super-cool guy and it was an honor to talk to him about Beervana as well as his brewery project, Mixtape Beverages. I decided to make our Mixtape conversation a bonus episode 17, so sit back and enjoy episode 16 as we focus on the story of Beervana and international distribution done right.

Show notes from Host John Holl:I met Jeff Alworth in the comments section of his blog, Beervana. A decade ago I had written an article for a newspaper and Alworth had thoughts and took the piece to task. He was wrong, of course, so like any keyboard warrior, I logged on and defended my digital honor. We became friends shortly after.  If you are interested in beer, you likely know Alworth. He's internationally respected writer and authority on beer.  He has a deep respect for beer styles, history, tradition, and craftsmanship.  The first addition of the beer bible has sold over 125,000 copies and the second edition, according to workman, the publisher is “the most comprehensive guide to the world of beer, with everything you need to know about what to drink, where, when and why.”  Alworth is author of the Beervana Blog, the The Widmer Way (Ooligan), The Secrets of Master Brewers (Storey), and Cider Made Simple. He is co-host of the Beervana Podcast.  Alworth hails from Portland, Oregon and as he began national book tour to support the new book he spent a few days in New Jersey, staying at my house. You should check out the podcasts he did with Steal This Beer as well as Beer Massif at two book signings for additional context.  With this go around, recorded in my backyard- neighbor's leaf blowers and all – I tried to cover new ground, but mostly just wound up having an enjoyable chat with an old friend." This Episode is sponsored by:NZ HopsNZ Hops, the co-operative of Master Hop Growers are a passionate collective of farms dedicated to innovation and sustainability.

Beer writer Jeff Alworth joins us in this opening episode of Season 11, hot on the promotional trail for his latest book.First published in 2015, The Beer Bible is billed as the most comprehensive guide to the world of beer, with everything you need to know about what to drink, where, when and why.The Beer Bible first edition was named best drinks book by the International Association of Culinary Professionals in 2016.The second edition was published in September 2021, so I was keen to ask Jeff what were the biggest changes in brewing in the intervening years.Hailing from one of my favourite cities; Portland, Oregon, Jeff is also founder of the Beervana blog and podcast, where he and Oregon State University economics professor Patrick Emerson discuss beer and the economics of beer.Now I figure some of you may be unfamiliar with Jeff's previous work. So I started by asking him, what is The Beer Bible?

On todays edition of the Beer Massif Podcast Jeff Alworth joins us to talk about all things beer and his new second edition tome of the Beer Bible! Jeff is a writer living in Portland, Oregon. His books include The Widmer Way (Ooligan, Spring 2019), The Beer Bible (Workman), Cider Made Simple (Chronicle), and The Secrets of Master Brewers (Storey). His titles have twice been cited by the North American Guild of Beer Writers as best book and in 2016 the Beer Bible was named best wine, spirits, or beer book by the International Association of Culinary Professionals (IACP). When he's not working on a book, he can be found writing about beer at his blog, Beervana. ( http://www.beervanablog.com/ )He also co-hosts the Beervana Podcast ( https://xraypod.com/show/beervana ) , where he and Oregon State University economics professor Patrick Emerson discuss beer and the economics of beer. In 2018 he began co-teaching the two core courses for The Business of Craft Beverage at Portland State University Jeff regularly gives educational speeches, guided tastings, and corporate presentations. Contact him at jeff@beervanablog.com to schedule a booking.

Staffy chats Beervana with Sky stadium CEO Shane Harmon

Each year, people traveling to Portland reach out to Jeff for advice about which breweries to visit. Starting in 2018 he thought it would be easier just to write a post on his website with his recommendations. After several weeks of field research, he finally revealed the 2021 edition of the list on Beervana. Today we'll discuss his recommendations and I'll add my own comments and corrections.

On Monday, Molson Coors announced it was ceasing production of a bunch of minor brands it owned, including one that hurts Oregonians' hearts: Henry Weinhard's Private Reserve. It was a beer that helped make the city Beervana, but also a remnant of a dying era.

Wellington's pain is Auckland's gain.The capital had been due to host two All Blacks tests this year ... the first set down for August 28 against Australia, and then September 18 against Argentina.The pause on the travel bubble has seen those arrangements scrapped. Auckland was already set for the first Bledisloe test this Saturday and NZ Rugby says the only date open to Wellington was the 14th.Sky Stadium is already booked that day - hosting the two day Beervana beer festival.Stadium CEO Shane Harmon told Wellington Morning's Host Nick Mills he is disappointed with the outcome.

As the Beervana festival gets closer, brewers are looking at new ways to stand out at this year's event.  Jesse talks to Bruce Turner from Urbanuat in Auckland about the 'clear' beer they're brewing for this year.

This week Beervana turns fifteen. Throughout the week I’ll be posting some lighthearted material looking back, and today we kick things off with a quick look back. It turns out this blog almost perfectly corresponds to the modern era of brewing in the US.

Mass market lagers aren’t, let’s be honest, especially interesting beers. They are often made by giant corporations in equally giant plants. But drinking them—in that act we might locate some pleasure.

So many forces are now scrambling the beer industry—including Covid, which may change it forever—that the very meaning of “craft beer” is up for grabs. It may help to consider the era through different lenses to take its full measure.

In May, Pelican Brewery turns 25. For the whole of its life, it has reflected the vision of its longtime brewer, Darron Welch. Yet unlike so many legacy breweries, Pelican is growing and thriving. There’s an important lesson here.

Having been neglectful about actual, tasty beer, I offer a round-up of recent discoveries, both in trends and individual beers.

The Covid pandemic has been especially brutal on downtown businesses, and last week claimed one of the most important independent bars in Portland, Bailey’s Taproom. It counts as its legacy a host of breweries it championed and a richer, more interesting beer scene.

Regular listeners will know that up until a year ago Brews News Week and Beer is a Conversation were one show, and if you wanted to listen to an old interview you'd have to wade through the news of that week. So now we're republishing the best of those interviews as their own podcast. This week you'll hear from a 2014 conversation with John Holl who also features as the Beer is a Conversation guest this week. We chatted with John at Beervana and beforehand Matt had posed this question to him: "What would beer look like if it was invented for the first time today?"  The thought really intrigued John and by the time we met he had already discussed it with such luminaries as Stan Hieronymus...and it must have stuck with him because he devotes a few pages to a discussion of it in his book, Think Beer, Drink Beer. Enjoy your ride in the way back machine as we revisit John Holl.

The Brew is Out There! One of our favorite yeast people is back and he's got big news! Nick Impelitteri is going full time and moving to Beervana - aka Portland - aka the new "Bay" City? In addition we talk about new toys he's bringing to bear including a nectar loving critter that might change how you experience hops.

This week on Beer is a Conversation we discuss beer tourism. Tap rooms have become an important part of small brewery business plans as tourism increasingly becomes a major draw card. The first part of the conversation is with Chris Holen, Head Chef at Baked Alaska restaurant in Astoria Oregon. Chris tells the story of how food and beer have been instrumental in changing the fortunes of the small town that is now home to 5 breweries, a distillery, a cidery and a host of good restaurants. Then Matt chats with Trever Bass, Head Brewer at Migration Brewing in Portland Oregon about how to stand out in the city known as ‘Beervana'. Enjoy the conversation.

In Episode 1 of The Drinkable Globe Podcast, host Jeff Cioletti welcomes Portland, Oregon-based beer writer Jeff Alworth, author of The Beer Bible and creator of the Beervana blog. Alworth offers an insider's guide to drinking in PDX and shares some of his bucket-list beer destinations around the world.

The Brew is Out There! PROCESS SHOW Drew sits down with Jeff Alworth, writer of the Beervana blog and podcast and the recent The Secrets of Master Brewers to talk what lessons Jeff discovered while touring a bunch of different brewing cultures. Together they explore the notion of national brewing identities and why many factors, including the Cold War, make the beers of Bohemia radically different from the beers of neighboring Bavaria. Also, does the US have a "brewing identity"?
