Almanac Beer got lots of people (including the hosts of this podcast!) talking earlier this summer when it announced it was ditching the word “taproom” and rechristening its Alameda, California-based location as Alameda Adventureland.   There was a lot more than alliteration and snappy branding behind the move. Eschewing the “taproom” part of its name made way for Almanac to embrace all the other things it had become: a gathering space for all members of the community, whether or not they drank beer.   In the fourth and final installment in the Brewbound Podcast's Learning Lounge: Taproom Tactics series, Almanac EVP of sales Kevin Scoles details the brewery's transformation of its own-premise location from a taproom to a full-blown, family-friendly entertainment space.   In addition to Scoles' conversation with Brewbound managing editor Jess Infante, this episode highlights news from Calicraft Brewing and New England Brewing Company, as well as Brewbound reporter Zoe Licata's trip to Chicago, and remembers New Albion Brewing co-founder Jack McAuliffe.

In Episode #13 of the Business of Beer series, we chatted with the team behind the Canada Beer Cup and the federal body Canadian Craft Brewers Association (CCBA). The perfect follow-up would be to dive into a provincial body, and that's exactly what we did. Scott Simmons, President of the Ontario Craft Brewers (OCB) trade association, joins Cee to talk about the function of the OCB and a bunch of their wins over the years, how they engage with government to get things done, why breweries should get involved with their provincial trade association, what the annual dues go towards, what the Master Framework Agreement is and what happens next, how members can get their concerns to the board, how the annual Ontario Craft Brewers Conference works, and what he thinks the future of craft beer in Ontario looks like. They got into six fantastic beers from Town, courtesy of friend of the show Jeff Talmey, who plays a big part in the OCB: Microdose Light Hazy IPA, Square Wheels Hazy IPA, Holy Jumpin' Summer Lager collab with All My Friends, Surf Rock West Coast IPA, Motel Royalty Hazy IPA, and Slow Poke Hazy IPA. This was fascinating - cheers!   BAOS Podcast   Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube | Website | Theme tune: Cee - BrewHeads

Allen and RD try Snörkel, a farmhouse ale by Jester King Brewery. From Untappd:"The tide has returned.Snorkel is a dry, refreshing farmhouse ale brewed with Texas well water, pilsner malt, wheat, and a delicate blend of noble hops. Post fermentation, we add 60 pounds of fresh oyster mushrooms and a whisper of alderwood-smoked sea salt. Earthy, briny, and impossibly drinkable, Snorkel is as much a beer as it is a conversation starter.Soft and savory with gentle umami and a kiss of salinity, it's our tribute to the intersection of land and sea. Inspired by the Gose tradition but rooted in the farmhouse brewing philosophy, Snorkel drinks light and clean while offering something just left of center.Pairs well with good food, strange friends, and any occasion that calls for something unexpected.4.3% ABV"Thanks for watching!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/strikeout-beer--2992189/support.

Craft beer company going strong

Allen and RD have Chat Room, a west coast pilsner by Celestial Beerworks out of Texas.From Untappd:"Chat Room is a fresh, crisp, punchy West Coast Pilsner! Perfect timing for the outdoorsy games we've got going today. This simple Pilsner base was hopped heavily with Citra, Strata and El Dorado Hops. It's kind of the best of both worlds: the clean crispness of a lager and the aromatic, juicy flavors of an IPA.This 5.2% beer is delicate yet complex, has clementine and cantaloupe aroma, and finished with a dry with a pleasant hop bitterness."Thanks for watching!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/strikeout-beer--2992189/support.

About 10 years ago I was roaming along Red Bank in a part of Manchester city centre I was hopelessly unfamiliar with. On either side of me were tall stone walls topped with railway bridges, boxing me in and hiding the sun from view. Not another soul was to be seen. I sincerely hoped I was in the right place. Thankfully, a few moments later, I was met by a smiling face that had emerged from a red door in the side of one of these dark, Mancunian trenches. Here was Mark Welsby, the founder of The Runaway Brewery and soon he was leading me on a quick tour and tasting. Although it was a while ago, I still remember being thoroughly impressed, especially with his sweet, chewy and resinous American Brown Ale.As the years passed I got to know Mark increasingly well, especially after I relocated to Manchester myself in 2020. But more recently we've become very familiar, as in 2023 he moved Runaway to Stockport, opening a small brewery and taproom a mere 10 minute stroll from my own front door. This means that rarely a week goes by without me bumping into him or his wife and business partner Sam, because the space they've built in Stockport is wonderful, and the beer is tasting better than ever.Located in a former metalworks, opposite Stockport's brand new £140 million bus terminal and right on the banks of the River Mersey as it begins its journey westwards to Liverpool, Runaway has built a space the local community can be proud of. Featuring seating across two levels, twelve beers on tap (including two on cask) and pizza from another excellent local business, Honest Crust, in a roundabout way, it's a shining symbol of Stockport's continuing redevelopment. But more than that, it's a sign of Mark's intent. When the brewery moved here in April 2023, he signed a 10 year lease. This is where the next stage of this brewery's development is to be, and it's here for the long haul. In the latest episode of the Pellicle Podcast—and as part of a wider, more concerted effort to focus on what's happening within the Manchester Beer Scene—I chat to Mark about the origins, and first decade of The Runaway Brewery, before discussing what it means to have relocated, after embedding itself within the Stockport community.We're able to produce The Pellicle Podcast directly thanks to our Patreon subscribers, and our sponsors Loughran Brewers Select.

What happens when a local newspaper and a craft brewery join forces? In Spokane, Washington, it results in the First Amendment beer — a bold collaboration between The Spokesman-Review and No-Li Brewhouse that's as much about community as it is about hops. In this episode, we crack open the surprising story behind the beer making headlines and the mission to protect local journalism. It's a blueprint for sustainability with authentic flavor — and one you'll want to sip on.

This week's interview wasn't initially intended for the podcast and wasn't recorded that way (Brewing Industry Guide subscribers read it last month (https://brewingindustryguide.com/expanded-qa-lester-jones/)), but the topics are salient and the audio listenable, so we thought it would be an interesting change of pace. Lester Jones is the VP of Analytics and Chief Economist for the National Beer Wholesalers Association, and has some pretty deep data-driven insight into what is reality and what is just vibes in today's world of beer sales which he shares in this conversation. Throughout, we try to unpack what's actually going on, comparing anecdotal experience to real sales data, for a more accurate picture of the opportunities and challenges in today's beer world.

The hoppy love-fest continues today as we move from hazy beers to a Gold Medal winning West Coast IPA. A New Zealand hop focused WCIPA called Modern Love is a liquid love letter to San Diego's hop obession.

Stefan went on a bit of a summer trip and brought back some beers. He visited Poland. The craft beer scene in Poland is strong and very alive. He was able to visit tons of craft beer bars and didn't try the same beer twice. Browar Artezan has released a traditional Polish beers style called a grodziskie. It's a light abv beer with hints of smoke. Fafik comes in at 3.5% and brings in a little hops with nectaron and chinook. This is followed up with Ziemia Obiecana's Grand Kru. It's a sour beer made with white grapes and nelson sauvin hops.  These were a lot of fun to try and great for the summer. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #grodziskie #sourbeer #polishbeer

It's been 5ish years in the making to get Dan from TapRoom in the Alt 94/9 studios but we made it happen! All week we're diving into the beers he's cranking outta the North Park brewery. We start with a throwback collaboration with Living Haus Brewing outta Portland Oregon that takes inspo from a San Diego favorite from a few years back.

On the podcast this week, Nick takes us on a roving audio tour of SIBA Beer X—the UK's largest brewing trade show—capturing raw, on-the-ground insights straight from the tradeshow floor.Armed with a microphone and plenty of curiosity, Nick chats with a cross-section of UK brewery owners, brewers, and industry folks to ask two simple but telling questions: Where are the biggest opportunities in beer right now? And what's the greatest challenge facing the industry?From Twice Brewed in Northumberland to The Driftwood Spars on the Cornish coast, the conversation quickly reveals patterns—especially around the rise of alcohol-free beers. Brewers from Wiper & True and Utopian Brewing reflect on the practical and commercial benefits of brewing 0.5% ABV, while others highlight the increasing need to stand out with unique brand stories and community-led initiatives.Nick also speaks with Laura from Abbeydale Brewery and Catherine from Attic Brew Co. about how breweries can differentiate themselves through values, storytelling, and local engagement.The episode also explores cross-category innovation, including a conversation with a craft distiller offering contract services to breweries looking to diversify into spirits. And there's a catch-up with Broadtown Brewery—whose founder left a career in railway engineering to follow his passion for beer and pubs - and Combie from Round Corner Brewing on their decision to embrace cask beer.While some of the best conversations were, frustratingly, never recorded (

At the begining of the week Mo from Deft Brewing said they focused on three regions of beer styles: British, Germanic and Belgian. Up to this point we've yet to see a Belgian, so Mo is making up for lost time with a 10% ABV monster Belgian Quad called DeftCon 4.

It's one of the hottest days in July (so far) and Mo from Deft Brewing brings a Porter?! It's OK, Porters happen to be one of my favorite styles of beer and at one point in history more common then you're standard IPA. We get into a little history and a little style with Deft Brewing's Dawn of the Deft Porter.

You'll hear why even “boring” sites get hit, what it costs to clean up, and how to protect your business without hiring a full-time IT department.

It's become increasingly clear that beer style names don't mean as much as they used to. IPA has become a seeming catch all along with Lager. Do consumers even care about true definition of style or do they just want flavors descriptors? The guys talk about what styles even mean anymore.

THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is a cannabinoid, and the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis that creates the high associated with marijuana use. Since cannabis has become legal in many states, people are using it in new ways, especially in the drinks space. But what's the right way to do that? How do breweries, drinkers and mixologists deal with the legal ramifications, the oversight, and the actual flavors and aromas of THC? On this episode of the All About Beer podcast, we talk with Warren Bobrow, a mixologist and author, who pushes the envelope in terms of what cannabis can do in drinks. Then Samantha Lee of Hopewell Brewing in Chicago talks about making a brand extension - Choom - into THC seltzers and their experience into a world beyond beer.This Episode is Sponsored by:RahrBSGNeed ingredients and supplies that deliver consistent, high-quality beer?

Red Bus Brewing owner Erik Schmid is candid about what changed his mind about adding hard slushies to the Folsom, California-based craft brewery's summer menu: “bottom line.”   In Episode 2 of the Brewbound Podcast's Learning Lounge: Taproom Tactics series, Schmid shares that since Red Bus purchased a slushie machine, the fruity drinks have become 10% of Red Bus' beverage sales and 5% of its overall business. He described their popularity from May through September as a “pleasant surprise,” attracting consumers who wouldn't otherwise visit the brewery and offering others an alternative to beer.   Schmid walks through pricing, margin and profitability, production and the flavors that work best, plus how long the slushie machine took to pay for itself.    Plus, Justin, Jess and Zoe recap the latest headlines, including RNDC's planned layoffs in California ahead of its September exit and recent brewery closures and acquisitions.    The trio also play Another Round or Tabbing Out on the trend of hard sports hydration drinks.    Catch up on Episode 1 of the Learning Lounge with Death of the Fox co-founder Chuck Garrity sharing how coffee has become the dominant part of the brewery's business.

If you have spent any time at all in the wine trade...even if you have just visited the wine section of your favorite market; you know, have seen and recognize the name Sebastiani. They are one of the original Sonoma county wine families and August is the 4th generation. He makes an interesting point that traditionally in the Italian culture, the firstborn son that gets the name of the founding family member, in this case, it was the 4th generation son. But don't let the family history fool you into thinking this is old school, archaic thinking wine approach; nothing could be further from the truth. Few winery names are as steeped in Sonoma lore as Sebastiani, but August Sebastiani himself is as approachable as a bottle of his family's famed Zinfandel. Tune into this episode and you'll discover why. You'll be privy to a firsthand account of American winemaking's intersection with immigration, family legacy, and relentless innovation, as August peels back the layers of his family's journey from Tuscan stone mason beginnings to California wine empire. You'll hear how his great-grandfather started with nothing but a trowel and a dream, made his fortune in rocks after San Francisco's great earthquake, and how the generations that followed grew that spirit into an industry force—pivoting from stones to grapes, from bulk to premium, and always with a nod to their roots. August shares candid stories of sibling rivalry among winemaking families, the hard lessons learned from Prohibition, and the offbeat path that nearly led him away from wine. Whether wrangling city council duties in between harvests or tending to the next generation of wine drinkers, August reveals how both tradition and restless creativity fuel Three Badge Beverage Corporation's quest for relevance in a marketplace that's constantly shifting underfoot. You'll learn why packaging matters as much as what's in the bottle, what innovation actually looks like for a multigenerational wine business, and why sometimes, the key to success is simply listening—whether it's to a bartender's take on what's trending or a customer's unvarnished truth. Walk away from this episode with intimate knowledge of how the Sebastiani family has continually reinvented itself, how legacy and bold experimentation coexist, and why August believes you sometimes have to run to the front of the parade and pretend you've been leading it all along.   Three Badge Beverage Corporation (Three Badge) Website: https://threebadge.com Sebastiani Vineyards Website: https://www.sebastiani.com Don Sebastiani & Sons Website: https://donsebastianiandsons.com Wine of the Month Club Website: https://www.wineofthemonthclub.com B.R.
