This music is playing but the mics are still on, Tom Nickel decided to whip out a BONUS BEER for a Friday. As we sip on a nite cap of Nickel Beer 1348 Black Death, a barrel aged stout straitght out of the mad-mind of Tom and his assistant. This beer is not one to be drank too cool, let it sit and watch the flavors open up. The reward is a bourbon barrel aged beer that taste more like it came out of wine barrels.

We started the week with a Double IPA, we end the week with a Double IPA. As Tom and Tyson from O'Brien's has officialy kicked off thier St. Patrick's Day Weekend, we still take a break for Corned Beef Rubens and Irish Tot-Choes to toast with Pizza Port Brewing's Mongo Double IPA.

Bobby Kros hates interviews as much as he loves brewing beer, and while the cofounder of the La Vista, Nebraska, brewery may occasionally search for words to describe what he's doing, the beers he makes are perfectible capable of speaking for themselves. And speak they have, winning Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine® Best in Beer trophies in 2021, 2024, and 2025, in three wildly divergent styles. Yet Kros isn't resting on his laurels, and he continues to experiment with new ingredients and techniques in pursuit of perfection. In this episode, Kros discusses: brewing Czech-style pale lager with floor-malted Bohemian malt improving efficiency through dry hopping without sacrificing quality balancing beween hot-side, whirlpool, and dry-hop additions in hazy IPA experimenting with new and unreleased concentrated flowable hop products changing recipes for every batch in the elusive hunt for perfection using lighter C-malts in barleywine while using the barrel as an ingredient cask-conditioning in orange-wine barrels And more.

A note from Jeff Alworth: "I am very excited to announce the launch of a new podcast: “One Iconic Beer.” The first episode will go live on Monday, and we're busy putting together the second episode, which will follow in a month. Anyone familiar with my “Making of a Classic” series on this blog will gather the main idea. We'll be looking at a single beer and unpacking why it has become an icon through its history, accomplishment, cultural impact, and influence. The idea for the podcast came from All About Beer editor John Holl and, full disclosure, my friend. AAB will host the podcast and John has agreed to following me down a slightly more ambitious path than he might have bargained for. We're going to interview a couple people to tell these stories; someone from the brewery who can give a personal account of the beer and describe how it's made, and someone who can reflect on the broader story, providing historical background and the reason for the beer's stature. I don't know that he planned on an involved editing process when he pitched the idea, but he was game to give it a shot. I hope the result is richer story than any single person could provide."Tune in starting on March 16 for the first episode featuring Allagash White.  ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

With St. Patrick's Day around the corner, Tom Nickel from Nickel Beer Co has brought in a cousin to the famous Guiness, but not the frothy nitro version you find in your local Irish pub but the squatty bottled Export version of Guiness. More ABV and a more robust drinking profile, if you want to drink something dark at O'Brien's for the holiday...this is it.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Sid Kim. Sid didn't become an entrepreneur by following a master plan. He taught himself how to write a business plan from a book, raised venture capital during the dot com boom, and found himself running a company before fully understanding what success or responsibility would actually demand. As the son of immigrants who rebuilt their lives from scratch, Sid saw entrepreneurship as a way to create stability and agency. In this conversation, he reflects on the lessons that came from early wins, sudden losses and building businesses across borders, and how those experiences reshaped his relationship with money, risk and purpose. Sid is a global entrepreneur and business expansion strategist with nearly 30 years of leadership experience across Asia and the United States. His career has centered on building, scaling and diversifying ventures that bridge cultures, markets and industries. As Founder of Vatos Urban Tacos, Urban Mix, Sid Burger & Craft Beer and KoMari, Sid has launched and managed over 20 restaurants and businesses across Singapore, Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and the U.S. As Chairman of Vatos Capital Partners, he continues to oversee concept creation, fundraising, investor relations and brand growth. At SAGE Partners Group, where he serves as CEO, Sid leads cross-border consulting initiatives helping Asian brands expand into the U.S. and guiding North American brands into Asia. From strategy and compliance to design-build and operations, he helps companies navigate the complexities of global expansion while focusing on execution and growth. Beyond F&B, Sid founded GolfX, Singapore's leading indoor golf facility, and serves on the Singapore Golf Association's Golf Development Task Force, promoting the sport's growth and accessibility in the region. Sid recently founded a golf import, export and distribution company for U.S. brands wanting to expand to Asia. A frequent speaker and mentor, Sid shares insights on international expansion, entrepreneurship and cross-cultural leadership with founders, executives, and students worldwide. A Fulbright Scholar and former UC Berkeley Graduate Scholarship Advisory Board member, he combines academic rigor with entrepreneurial instinct—specializing in business development, financial strategy and scalable global ventures. Risk, Reinvention and Redefining Legacy Sid's journey shows that money is more than a measure of success. From his immigrant upbringing to building businesses across continents, his story reflects a thoughtful evolution in how he approaches risk, ambition and stability. Wealth, when guided by intention, creates freedom to pivot, tell meaningful stories and invest in the next generation. Through open conversations with his son about investing and career choices, he illustrates that financial legacy is shaped as much by dialogue and example as by assets. Lessons about money come from experience and shared perspective. If you want to align your resources with the life and legacy you want to create, an Aspiriant advisor can help you design a strategy grounded in purpose and discipline. Follow Money Tales on Spotify, Apple Podcasts or YouTube Music for more stories that guide smarter, more intentional money decisions.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… welcome to the most electrifying time of the Beer Engine calendar!The arena lights are on. The taps are flowing. The brackets are printed. And somewhere in the distance you can hear the sound of aluminium cans cracking like folding chairs over a wrestler's back…BRACKETMANIA 2026 IS HERE.This week, Tony and Griff step into the ring to kick off their annual bracket showdown, a tournament of questionable decisions, passionate arguments, and bold predictions that will rumble all the way through to the heat of summer.And let me tell you brother… this thing gets heated.The lads unveil this year's 64-entry bracket, packed with matchups so intense they'd make a steel cage blush. There are early favourites, dark horses, and at least one entrant that has absolutely no business being there—but somehow survived Griff's seeding process.Will Tony's “statistical approach” dominate the field?Or will Griff's patented “gut feeling and two pints deep” strategy once again throw the whole tournament into chaos?Expect:• Dramatic bracket reveals• Trash talk worthy of a championship belt• Wild predictions that absolutely will not age well• A few surprise rule changes mid-episode (because of course there are)• And at least one moment where someone demands a bracket rematchAs tradition dictates, the bracket will evolve week-by-week throughout the season. Rivalries will form. Alliances will crumble. And by the time summer arrives, only one contender will stand victorious in the centre of the Beer Engine ring.So grab a cold one, pull up a seat ringside, and prepare yourself…Because Bracketmania is running wild in 2026. ★ Support this podcast ★

Dan Brouillette has always worked in creative fields—he was a professional photographer before launching Lumen in the waning days of the pandemic—but he's always been particularly attracted to the technical aspects of creation. Like every IPA-focused brewer, he's on a neverending search for the most expressive, layered, and interesting hops. But he's also found that the information upon which many brewers rely when choosing hop lots often tells an incomplete story. Total oil numbers can be misleading, as they include oils that don't survive the brewing process; hops that smell good relative to others at selection may not have high enough oil concentration to punch through in finished beer. Brouillette has found that using past chemical data paired with his own sensory can be far more effective when seeking out hops that are going to give him the impact he seeks. In this episode, Brouilette shares: how spreadsheets are often a better tool for selecting hop lots than the old-fashioned rub his process for earmarking specific hop compounds at certain thresholds to ensure they're effective in beer designing different types of hazy IPA that appeal to different use cases and drinkers achieving beautiful hop expression in hazy IPAs with less than 4 percent ABV brewing hazy IPA with only 40 percent base malt And more. “We're brewing our World Beer Cup beers right now, and those will be much different than a beer that I want to make Top Drops on Instagram,” Brouilette says. “They're just different audiences. We don't brew one type of hazy IPA. There are different segments and sub-styles within the style, and we brew all of those.” G&D Chillers G&D's new Elite 290 Micro-series runs on a Natural Refrigerant with near-zero Global Warming Potential—built for brewers who care about sustainability and performance. They recently built one for New Belgium Brewing, delivering around 50% energy savings over CO₂ systems and 9% more efficiency than A2Ls.

We finally made it to one of Malmö's oldest drinking establisments. Bullen was founded in 1897 and has continued to sling beer and simple dishes. Over the years it's evolved into a Malmö mainstay. We've been going for years. It never fails to provide a good time. They specialize in importing beers from Czech Monastery Zeliv.

I've had the chance to talk with Mike at the Midwest Craft Chocolate Festival the past couple years, and we were finally able to connect for a conversation for Bean to Barstool a couple weeks ago. We talk all about the overlap between these worlds, what he's learned about each from the other, how sourcing and roasting and flavor formulation differs between them, and how he creates the delicious coffee infused bars like Cafe Mocha, Vanilla Latte, and Caramel Macchiato in his Coffee House Series. You can learn more about Encore at their website and Instagram.You can find previous coffee-themed episodes here:Osito Coffee, Violet Sky Chocolate, and Cloud Walking CoffeeOnyx CoffeeNamesake Coffee Check out David's book Pairing Beer & Chocolate: A Guide to Bringing the Flavors of Craft Beer and Craft Chocolate Together.Follow Bean to Barstool on social media!InstagramFacebookPinterestSign up for host David Nilsen's beer newsletter for regular beer musings, and the Bean to Barstool newsletter for pairings, collaborations, and maker profiles.

There are some raw materials in the brewing world that are the butt of jokes or customers claim they don't like them because they have heard bad or false things about them. Two brewing ingredients come to mind: Sabro hops, which were released in 2018 and crystal malt, which is used in many styles from English bitters to American amber ales. But are these ingredients really so bad? On the All About Beer podcast today we talk to four guests who will help us demystify these misunderstood members of the brewing world and find out if people's ire is really justified or perhaps we should be looking at Sabro and crystal malt with fresh eyes.Visit AllAboutBeer.com for more podcasts, to read original articles, and to get info on upcoming events.Click here to support independent journalism covering the beer industry.This Episode is Sponsored by:HopsteinerLet's talk brewhouse efficiency: Replacing pellet loads with Salvo cannot only boost aroma density, but reduce trub load and increase beer wart.

Beer collaborations are a particularly effective way for brewers to share and learn, but what if you could take that experience and share it with a wider audience? That's the idea behind this episode, recorded shortly after the brew day wrapped on a forthcoming collab brewed by Kelly McKnight at the pilot brewery of New Belgium in Fort Collins, Colorado, along with Ashleigh Carter of Denver's Bierstadt Lagerhaus and Natalie Rose Baldwin of Wayfinder in Portland, Oregon. Throughout, these three accomplished brewers discuss: finding common ground in a recipe and ingredients diving into each others' brew sheets exploring modern techniques such as cool pooling (even with German hops) understanding what qualities of subtler European hop varieties come through from the rub into the finished beer And more.

That's the rhythm of it. The delivery truck's just pulled away, the sun's already dipping behind the silos, and someone's realised the tap list never got updated. Again. It's the feeling of sprinting toward something that's already halfway gone — but laughing anyway because there's a cold one in your hand and that counts for something. Foam clinging to the glass, condensation sliding down like a slow apology. You missed the moment, sure. But you didn't miss the pour.It's the soundtrack of small-town Fridays and half-finished plans. A day late and a dollar short… beers beers beers. The mates who show up after the raffle's been drawn. The keg that kicks just as the best story starts. The bar light flickering like it's in on the joke. And somehow, despite the timing, despite the short change, there's abundance in repetition. Not perfection — repetition. Another round. Another crack of a can. Another chorus of “cheers” rolling across the room like it's always been right on time. ★ Support this podcast ★

In January 2024, co-founder of Thornbridge Brewery, Simon Webster received an email from Garrett Oliver. He'd heard a rumour that Carlsberg Britvic, the now owners of Marston's Brewery in Burton-upon-Trent, were “laying the union to rest.” The Brooklyn brewmaster continued to ask Simon if he'd be interested in taking a set, in turn saving it from being permanently erased from British brewing history. Six months later, after Simon and Thornbridge's brewing director Rob Lovatt had visited Burton to assess the situation, a single Union set was delivered to their brewery in Bakewell, Derbyshire. In the months since, it has become a focal point for their brewery, and something that has stirred plenty of excitement in the process. This has no doubt been assisted by the fact it's been used to produce some exciting collaborations, including with the likes of The Kernel and Odell Brewing. They've even produced a Strong Dark Mild with Garrett himself, a beer that would go on to become award-winning. In October 2025, host Matthew Curtis was invited to spend two days at Thornbridge and document a collaboration on the union system with Theakston Brewery of Masham, North Yorkshire. As the brewers set about making a version of the Yorkshire brewery's famous Masham Ale, Matthew set about filming, interviewing and documenting as much as he possibly could. The idea was to get to the heart of why the arrival of the Burton union at Thornbridge felt so significant. In this documentary-style episode of the Pellicle Podcast, you'll hear from several people at Thornbridge, including Simon Webster, Rob Lovatt, brewing manager Dominic Driscoll, and several others, plus Theakston's head brewer, Mark Slater. With plenty of analysis throughout, plus an original soundtrack composed by the host himself, this is the story of how Thornbridge saved the Burton Union. We're able to produce The Pellicle Podcast thanks to our Patreon subscribers, and our sponsor Get ‘Er Brewed.
