We have a special conversation with Bob Brewer, former Anchor Brewing employee, while The Drive and Brew Ha Ha are still on Summer vacation this year. There is sad news in the brewing industry, as Sapporo has announced that Anchor Brewing is closing. Here is the conversation that Herlinda Heras recorded on July 12 with Bob Brewer, who worked for Anchor for many years. When Bob Brewer was originally hired at Anchor in 1985, he had been working for a beer wholesaler which also distributed Anchor, since about 1977. He was a draft beer installer and also did nearly everything to deliver beer, including carrying kegs around San Francisco. Bob would always say he had the best job in the world. “I get to deliver the best beer in the world to the best people in the world in the best city in the world.” He was working to support his wife who was getting a degree in petroleum engineering. She took a job in southern California and he made the move. When Mark Carpenter called to ask if he could become their distributor there, Fritz Maytag presented him with “the presumptive close” and he got the job. He also got some work experience in England, which had a completely different regulatory environment. There was a brewery which was making a beer that they called Steam, too. But he mostly concentrated on the local market. The international market was more to “show the flag” than to move lots of beer. “I don't now whether the beer was the novelty or I was.” He worked with a famous English beer expert named Michael Jackson. Visiting the Barley Farm in Washington Fritz Maytag, who owned Anchor at the time, had a relationship with a farmer in southern Oregon who grew the barley that they used in the Christmas Ale. This was Fritz' idea so that his staff could understand the origin of their ingredients. There was a famous bus trip to Yakima with Fritz and Anchor staff including Bob. They stopped at Mendocino Brewing Company for some Red Tail Ale, one of the original craft brewers. (It is now Hopland Tap run by Ron Lindenbusch, ex of Lagunitas.) But “the elephant in the room” is the fact that Sapporo is closing Anchor. This feels like a loss in the family to Herlinda, and to many of us in the broad Anchor family. Fritz Maytag wanted to retire and sold the company to an investment group. They invested in the company and hired Bob as an ambassador. And then they sold to Sapporo. For most of the rest of this episode, Bob Brewer talks at length about the history of Anchor including some thoughts about the recent history and its closing.

Falling Rock Tap House in Denver is closing its doors and going out of business. Chris Black, owner of Falling Rock Tap House in Denver is our first guest today on Brew Ha Ha, today with Herlinda Heras, with Harry Duke sitting in for Steve Jaxon. Sadly for the beer world Chris Black is on a farewell tour. Falling Rock Tap House has been the most popular tap house in the country for many years. Now he has a set of several four-foot-by-six-foot signs that depict the logos of beers they sold. A former bartender who worked for him painted them. Now, he is visiting the breweries to give them their signs. He just visited Lost Abbey in San Diego and now he is up in Northern Caifornia to deliver some others at Anchor, Lagunitas, Sierra Nevada and Deschutes. Jeremy Cohen is on the phone from Schmaltz Brewing. Jeremy Cohen is wrapping up 25 years of brewing. He started at age 26 in 1996 in San Francisco. He grew the brand and sold beer all over the country. Now instead of trying to sell a regional brand, he is focussing on a new brand to serve just the New York City area with an exclusive wholesaler. He also has a new taproom in Troy, upstate New York. He is also doing consulting in the beer industry. He says he never thought it would get a far as it did. Brew Ha Ha "Brews News with Herlinda" is sponsored by Russian River Brewing Co. and by The Beverage People / Fermenter's Warehouse.   Herlinda describes how Falling Rock was located near the Colorado Rockies stadium. During the World Beer Cup in Denver, Falling Rock was the place to go. He still has a beer truck with 22 taps that can go to events. Bob Brewer is the legendary sales guy for Lagunitas. He met Chris Black a long time before Falling Rock. They met in Houston when Chris was a rep for a German brewery and Bob worked for Lagunitas. There was a tap house in Houston called The Ginger Man. Later he found that Chris had a taproom. Bob Brewer's role at Lagunitas included troubleshooting taps, sales and marketing. He always had a table at Beerfest and would go to Falling Rock in the off hours. Once there was an All-Star game at Coors Field and the rep from a large American brand put their signature product in every single bar, except for Falling Rock. They festooned the town with their logo, but only gave a case of beer to Chris, who proceeded to smash it with a large hammer, and then turned it into a sign outside the store saying something like “no crap on tap.”

Dr Hugh Ross believes in the same general sequence of events and the same order of appearance as evolutionists. Although he believes that God made Adam from the dust, he also accepts the evolutionists’ long-age interpretation of the fossil record. But human fossils are found ‘dated’ earlier than Adam’s genealogies could possibly allow.

Phase One of the Modified Stay-at-Home Order is in place in North Carolina, and businesses across the High Country are opening the doors for the first time in months. Some are opening to new operations and procedures that look very different than what was being implemented when they closed in March. Bob Brewer of Anytime Fitness will be opening one of those businesses when Phase Two begins later this month. He has been an entrepreneur for his entire life and offers some suggestions for small business owners that are stepping back into the game in the midst of uncertainty.

Bob Brewer visits Brew Ha Ha with Steve Jaxon and Mark Carpenter this week, plus Steve speaks with Herlinda Heras who is in Rimini, Italy, again this year, to judge the Italian "Beer of the Year" competition, called "Birra dell'anno" in Italian. Mark Carpenter worked with Bob Brewer at Anchor Brewing in San Francisco for many years. First, Steve Jaxon talks to Herlinda Heras who is in Rimini, Italy, for the second straight year, where she is a judge in this year's national competition. There are 108 judges from 15 different countries. They are judging only Italian beers. Italy is known for wine, but also for flavor, and their craft beer scene is very well developed. Mark Carpenter tells how there were no breweries in California at the time of the Gold Rush, which attracted people from everywhere, including northern Europe. They wanted to make Lager beer but they had no ice, so they made a hybrid style of beer that took the nickname of Steam. Of all the origin stories, this is the one that seems most likely to Mark: because they were trying to make a lager beer, they were making it carbonated. To do that they would go through a Krausening process (a traditional German method for carbonating beer by adding actively fermenting malt wort). The beer would be pretty well carbonated and was served in places that were cool, but not refrigerated. When they tried to tap the kegs, they would get a lot of foam. They had to pour a little then let it settle. The foam that would come out would escape like steam. At the time, lager beer was taking over the world and the steam beers died out. Anchor was the only steam beer producer to survive prohibition. San Francisco is cool enough in the summer to brew that way. Bob Brewer remembers when kegs were scarce and he had to reorganize his schedule to maximize his access to empty kegs. He also modified some taps to control the foaming with the steam beer. Mark says that Sapporo which owns Anchor now, is in it for the long haul. Fritz Maytag sold it about 8 or 9 years ago to buyers who then sold it to Sapporo. The Beverage People is Sonoma County's fermentation experts since 1980. They have all the equipment, supplies and instructions for making home brewed beer, and also wine, cheese, olives, mead and any kind of fermented food or beverage.

The son of a popular nightclub owner was murdered in his own home after a domestic dispute turns deadly. The suspect, also known as his wife, claims self defense despite of the fact there was no records supporting her defense. This case will leave you scratching your head and make you realize just how easy it can be to get away with a cold blooded murder.   

Steve Doty from Shady Oak Barrel House is our main guest today on Brew Ha Ha with Steve Jaxon and Mark Carpenter. Their website proclaims “Sour and Wild Artisinal Ales.” Bob Brewer, the former Anchor Brewing sales guy, is also in.  Mark has known Bob for a long time, even before he worked at the brewery. Mark tells about how at Anchor, they were having trouble selling beer in New York. Fritz asked him and Bob to go to New York City and went from bar to bar making relationships. He says it is a huge accident that with a name like Brewer, he got into the beer business. Once when he worked for the Renaissance Faire, they asked him to put the beer concession booths together. He learned a lot about beer and met Fritz Maytag, who was personally delivering Anchor Steam beer. This was his transition into beer, when a beer distributor he had worked with offered him a job. Later, Mark offered Bob a job at Anchor. Bob was good at solving problems with the draft systems in bars, where they were serving Anchor beers. Mark thinks that the level of carbonation is lower now, which makes the beer easier to pour from the draft system. He also heard a brewer at the old Olympia brewery say that you could hide a lot of defects with extra carbonation.  They are tasting some cans of Anchor Steam. The big cans are a new addition. They hold 19.2 fluid ounces. Mark says that the bars in New York at the time were stuck in their ways and they didn't want to charge more for better beer, but Mark got them to do it. After the break, Steve introduces Steve Doty from Shady Oak Barrel House. He just opened his taproom on 420 First Street. Steve asks him how he came to be a beer guy. He was a lab tech in the wine business but he doesn't drink wine. He found that craft beer was all about choices, which he says is ironic with the popularity of IPA. He makes sour beer, besides his IPA. All his beer is artisinal. He was named best new brewery in California in 2015 (or maybe 2016). Now his business is growing. They are tasting an IPA from Shady Oak Barrel House that Steve really likes. Steve asks why Anchor Steam beer is so popular. Bob says it's because it's so well made. He tells how Fritz Maytag introduced product consistency and hospital-level cleanliness, that make a unique high quality product. The term Steam for beer was a nickname given to the beer when early California brewers were making lager beer, but they didn't have refrigeration. So it went to the bars highly carbonated and it produced a lot of foam. Someone noticed and compared the airy beer to tapping a tank of steam. As they pour some Apricot Sour, Steve Doty describes why it didn't make sense for him to have an actual brew house. So he contracts with other brewers. He works a lot with Hen House. Mark explains that he buys the first stage of production from the brewer, they make it up to where he adds his flavors and blends. Most of his barrels are used French oak wine barrels. But he also has some gin barrels and port barrels. They all add their own flavors. Bob is a fan of sour beers, which used to be only produced in Belgium. They were hard to find until some locals started making them. Even if he likes sour beers, not all of them are good, some are not sour enough. The first domestically produced sour beer that he ever tasted was from Russian River Brewing Co. Many brewers are redefining the style, says Steve Doty. They taste an apricot-flavored sour beer that Herlinda Heras says tastes like a good Turkish dried apricot. Herlinda asks how they add fruit. For example, he gets grapes from Sonoma County and tries to use whole fruit. The beer has to be done and ready to go, but only then can have fruit added. He adds about 2 pounds of fruit for a gallon of beer. The fruit makes a new fermentation, and adds the flavor from the skins, pits, etc. Steve asks Bob to describe the Dickens Fair, which runs from Nov. 17 through Dec. 23 at the Cow Palace in San Francisco.

The Confederate Army’s losses at the battles of Gettysburg and Vicksburg in July 1863 marked a turning point in America’s Civil War, one that was not favorable for furthering the cause of “Southern Independence.” With the hopes of an overall military victory for the Confederacy now beginning to fade, the clandestine leaders of the KGC took the movement fully underground, secreting not only their commands and communications, but also their amassed wealth and weapons. There is sufficient circumstantial evidence to suggest that significant amounts of gold and silver as well as armaments had been collected by the KGC from agents, members and sympathizers, but that then begs the question, where did it all go? If a vast, non-centralized network of money and guns needed to be kept from the hands of a dominant and soon to be victorious Union government, what methodology could a secret organization use to hide it all, and who and what system could be trusted to find it again when it was needed? Part Two of our series on the Knights of the Golden Circle takes a look at where they may have gotten their gains, and what legendary names, famous and infamous, may have helped them.
