Making great beer is one challenge; running a successful brewery is another. As today's industry faces tighter margins, shifting consumer trends, and economic uncertainty, many brewers find themselves taking on new roles as managers and executives. Our panel today – moderated by Andy Crouch from Schilling's Oktoberfest - includes decision makers who have run brewhouses and have transitioned to running their businesses, folks who have worked for others and on their own, and have managed all parts of these operations. They share lessons on leadership, strategy, and the business realities of brewing today.For more Drink Beer, Think Beer check out All About Beer.SponsorsDogfish Head Craft BreweryCalling all hop heads!

The Year of the Lager has been predicted for decades, and it is finally coming true. And the timing couldn't be better. Drinking habits continue to shift and younger audiences are increasingly embracing moderation or even alcohol abstinence. The craft beer industry finds itself at a crossroads. After decades of solid and sometimes explosive growth, craft beer faces both a challenge and an opportunity. Lager, with its approachable strength and depth of flavor, is uniquely positioned to thrive in this environment. And while craft lager comprises a small fraction of the beer market, it has never been more popular or relevant. Today we're going to explore how to reframe and sell lager for audiences who value balance, flavor, and authenticity, in a moment when many aren't reaching for a pint.For more Drink Beer, Think Beer check out All About Beer.SponsorsDogfish Head Craft BreweryCalling all hop heads!

Tonya Cornett thought she would end her career at 10 Barrel Brewing. She had joined the Bend, Oregon-based craft brewery in 2012, piled up competition medals for her beers and created a following at the brewery. She thrived as the brewery's R&D brewmaster before and after its 2014 sale to Anheuser-Busch InBev (A-B). But then Tilray Brands acquired 10 Barrel and seven other brands in 2023. A year later, Tilray laid off Cornett and members of her team in a move that shocked many within the industry. On this week's Brewbound Podcast, Cornett discusses her journey over the last decade-plus and her next chapter with Upp Liquids, a new venture in the rebranded Immersion Brewing space. Cornett shares her experiences at A-B, how 10 Barrel and her role changed under Tilray's ownership and her goals with Upp moving forward. As the Great American Beer Festival (GABF) kicks off in Denver, Cornett also explains how medals have served as a stamp of approval throughout her career and why they remain relevant. Cornett's beers have received numerous competition medals throughout the years, including 28 medals at the Brewers Association's (BA) GABF and World Beer Cup. That doesn't include 10 Barrel's 2024 clean sweep of the German-style Sour Ale category during the 2024 GABF competition. Before the interview, the Brewbound team runs through the latest headlines, including a big leadership shakeup at Molson Coors and Constellation Brands' struggles as its largest consumer base remains under pressure.

The Beer Culture Center was founded by Liz Garabay, a long-time museum professional. When she sketched it out in 2013 she wanted it to be a place that would look at history and society through the lens of drinking. The idea came to life and has now presented hundreds exhibits and events around the country. It's important and necessary work, one everyone in the industry should be supporting. The center also hosts the annual Beer Culture Summit, a multi-day, multi-disciplinary experience that tells the story of beer, its people, its history, and its importance. As the center expands, it recently announced its first Beer History Studies Fellow, Onteya Zachary. She will share insight into her research and more.

After years working at various breweries and hosting their own craft beer podcast, Chelsea Rhoads and Liz Hess finally decided to take the plunge and buy a brewery. The pair, who co-host the Body By Beer podcast, acquired Denver's Berkeley Alley Beer Company earlier this summer and have put their own spin on the beloved local spot. They joined Brewbound managing editor Jess Infante for a conversation about why now was the time to become brewery owners and how they plan for Berkeley Alley to be a community gathering hub. The brewery, which opened as De Steeg before being sold and rechristened Berkeley Alley in 2021, has a four-barrel brewhouse, which Hess runs. “We get a chance to really play and learn and really get our feet wet, so I'm looking forward to that,” she said. “I'm not saying it's not scary times, as far as expense goes, because it is, right? But we think that we can push people to come in and expand that by offering more than just beer.” Ahead of the interview, Brewbound senior reporter Zoe Licata chats about the latest headlines, including Boston Beer's tale of two teas and the Brewers Association's midyear survey results. Plus, she details a recent taproom visit that blew her away.
There are doubts that high-strength beers are causing as much harm as critics say. The products are sold as singles in supermarkets and liquor stores and are stronger than RTDs, ranging from seven to 16 percent. 'Communities Against Alcohol Harm' has been raising the issue at a number of public hearings - calling for a ban. But Brewers Association Executive Director Dylan Firth says a blanket ban would be an overreach. He says, if there are specific problems, they can be imposed on the licenses of each product.

In this episode, I sit down with Josh Cross, the beverage director at Wye Oak Tavern, to dive into the martini renaissance and all things mixology. We talk about how martinis have evolved over time, from their sweeter beginnings to the bone-dry versions people love today, and how something as simple as glassware can impact both presentation and function. Josh walks me through his creative process for developing new cocktails, where he pulls inspiration from big ideas, specific spirits, and the occasional trend. We also get into the resurgence of espresso and dirty martinis, the age-old debate of shaking vs. stirring, and why having the right tools and ingredients makes all the difference. It's a great conversation about balancing classic techniques with fresh, creative flavor.Subscribe to our YouTube ChannelFollow Chris on Instagram Like us on Facebook!

The team at 3 Tier Beverages breaks down hot trends in bev-alc heading into the summer selling season on the latest edition of the Brewbound Podcast. 3 Tier Beverages founder Donn Bichsel, consultant Danelle Kosmal and CGA VP Matthew Crompton share a complete look at trends in the off- and on-premise, including continued momentum for non-alcoholic beer, hard juice's rocketing growth and the growing simplicity movement within craft. “The biggest opportunity for this summer and within the next year is just engaging new consumers and creating new drinking occasions,” Kosmal said of NA beer. Kosmal also covers why craft lagers are working, how flavored lagers such as lime are performing and what opportunities still exist in the space. Bichsel cautions craft brewers against playing the pricing game with mainstream lager brands. “When most of your revenue is coming from 4-packs, 6-packs and you start playing in the 12-packs, 15s, 18s, 24s, I think you're chasing a losing proposition,” he said. “You've got to be very careful or be prepared to have a high price and just give up some of your turns.” Kosmal and Crompton explore why ABV and style remain among the key factors driving consumer purchases. They also cover the three pillars of innovation growth – NA beer, flavor and craft line extensions – and explain why flavor is leading the way within new products, led by AriZona's Jumex Hard Nectar. Before the conversation, Brewbound editor Justin Kendall and senior reporter Zoe Licata analyze 2024 craft brewery production data, which the Brewers Association released last week, including New Belgium leapfrogging Anheuser-Busch InBev's craft portfolio, big losses for Boston Beer, big gains for Athletic Brewing and the regional craft breweries leveling up.
Every year at Little Beer editor John Holl gets to host a panel with great brewers about how they brew small and what the consumer appetite is like for low ABV offerings. This year was no exception. As the pints were flowing on the Duluth, GA town green he sat down with Natalie Rose Baldwin the brewmaster at the lager-focused Wayfinder Beer in Portland, Oregon; Shaun Yasaki the Brewmaster and owner of Noble Beast Brewing Company in beautiful Cleveland Ohio; and Brandon Plyler the beer educator at Edmund's Oast Brewing in South Carolina.

On this episode I had the chance to sit down with Braden Bumpers from McClintock Distilling, Eli Breitburg-Smith from Baltimore Spirits Company, and Ryan Norwood from Sagamore Spirits. We talked all about Rye Curious—a special collaborative Maryland rye whiskey blend created by these three distilleries. We got into the details of the project, including the guidelines that required the whiskey to be at least three years old and distilled right here in Maryland. These three were ready to roll this year, but we're all hopeful more distilleries will join in future editions. We also explored each of their approaches to distilling and blending rye, the unique aspects of their stills and techniques, how Rye Curious came together, and what's ahead—including more releases and events in the Spirits of Maryland series.Subscribe to our YouTube ChannelFollow Chris on InstagramLike us on Facebook!
