For week 6, we saw the Lombardi teams engage in a set of interesting battles and some weird games. The Jacksonville Jaguars sink to 1-5 after their loss to the Bears in London placing them in a season ending situation. For the Ravens, the won their key game against the Washington Commanders. Can the Ravens find a way to dominate the AFC Conference? For Tampa Bay they won in a weird game against the New Orlean Saints in a big divisional game placing them back in command of the NFC South. The Chargers won their own divisional game over the Denver Broncos. The Raiders lost to the Steelers after a QB change and admis Devante Adams trade drama. Are the Raiders better off tanking? For the Cowboys and The Lions, the Lions destroyed the Dallas Cowboys in a destructive game in Dallas. Is the Cowboys season over? For the Lions, are they now the best team in the NFC? The Falcons won against Atlanta in a divisional win as Atlanta and Tampa Bay fight for control of the NFC South. I'll be discussing all this and more here on Brewstilled with Double Bock as the beer pairing.

Does the website get updated every time a new award is won? Can you name all 35 awards? What’s the story behind the name? 2 locations: Worcester and Marlborough, MA. Looks like beer is brewed in Worcester and the taproom in Marboro. What’s the story with the two locations? *potential follow-up: Wormtown used to brew at the Worcester location How did the relationship with Wormtown Brewing begin?

What was the first beer you brewed? What’s your favorite style of beer? What beer do you enjoy brewing the most? *If there was a beer you could brew with no regards to cost, production, or sales, what would it be and why? On collaborations, which brewery was the most fun to brew with? What beer was it? I may be retarded, but how do you pronounce “SYZYGY”? Why?

Bad Yelp Review - Redemption: Steven B. - Boston, MA (Worcester location) A very small, cozy brewery located next to a restaurant. I recommend the tasting as you will get to keep your sample glass. The samples you get to try will vary from day to day depending on which beers are on tap. Concession IPA- Bitter and hoppy. Unfortunately, I did not find this IPA terribly appealing. Double bock--Caramel and whiskey. Like a barley wine. Nice smooth finish. This was the highlight of the tasting. Cafe session stout--thinner consistency than most stouts. Distinct Coffee complexity. Reminds me of cold brew. It's a refreshing stout. Double Mando DIPA--Strong hoppy flavor with a nice bitterness that lingers in the tongue. Pine note. Thin consistency. Decent DIPA. Park Ave porter--a little malty but not much. But, I found the flavor dull and watery. Satisfactory, but not much going on here. Like most breweries, the brews can be hit or miss. Double Bock alone is worth a visit. Flying Dreams gets a recommendation. came here by accident, meant to go to the Worcester location. I personally was on the hunt for their sour beers but none were on tap so I asked for water while my boyfriend got drinks. There were 4 of us in total here and the girl never came back with my water or to check in on my boyfriend. He finally put his empty glass very obviously forward so he could get another beer and she came. I asked for water again and never got it. I get its a brewery and perhaps I annoyed her by not drinking l, but blatantly ignoring 50% of your customers sucks. it's also in an odd space with lawyers offices.

German-Style Doppelbock or Eisbock-2 Subcategories:A.Subcategory: German-Style Doppelbock(Description courtesy of Beer Advocate) https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/styles/35/“Doppel” meaning “double,” this style is a bigger and stronger version of the lower-gravity German-Style Bock beers. Originally made by monks in Munich, the Doppelbock beer style is very food-friendly and rich in melanoidins reminiscent of toasted bread. Color is copper to dark brown. Malty sweetness is dominant. Malt character is more reminiscent of fresh and lightly toasted Munich-style malt, more so than caramel or toffee malt. Doppelbocks are full-bodied, and alcoholic strength is on the higher end.-Color – Copper to Dark Brown-Clarity: Appearance should be bright; chill haze should not be present-Perceived Malt Aroma & Flavor: Pronounced aromas and flavors of toasted malted barley. Some caramel and toffee character can contribute to complexity in a secondary role.-Perceived Hop Aroma & Flavor: Hop aroma is absent. Hop flavor is low.-Perceived Bitterness: Low-Body: Full -ABV: 6.6%-7.9%B.Subcategory: German-Style Eisbock(Description courtesy of Beer Advocate) https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/styles/36/This is a stronger version of Doppelbock.Eisbock is an extremely strong beer with a typical alcohol content well beyond 7 percent ABV. This beer undergoes a freezing process called “freeze distilling” that separates water from the other components (alcohol and sugars) to concentrate these. Because water has a lower freezing point than ethanol, the water freezes, leaving the alcohol liquid. When the water ice is removed, the remaining beer is stronger than before. Eisbock can range from near black to as light as tawny red. Hop bitterness and flavor are mostly cast aside with a big alcohol presence replacing it, which can range from sweet to spicy, and fruity to fusel. Look for a heavy or almost syrupy body with tons of malty flavor.-Color – Light brown to black-Clarity: Appearance should be bright; chill haze should not be present-Perceived Malt Aroma & Flavor: Sweet malt character is very high-Perceived Hop Aroma & Flavor: Hop aroma and flavor is absent.-Perceived Bitterness: Very Low to Low-Body: Very full-ABV: 8.6%-14.3%-Glassware: Snifter - Used for brandy and cognac, these wide-bowled and stemmed glasses with their tapered mouths are perfect for capturing the aromas of strong ales. Volumes range, but they all provide room to swirl and agitate volatiles. Benefits: Captures and enhances volatiles. -Examples (courtesy of Beer Advocate)(https://www.beeradvocate.com)Troegenator | Tröegs Brewing CompanyBrewed by: Tröegs Brewing Company Pennsylvania, United Statestroegs.com Style: German Doppelbock Alcohol by volume (ABV): 8.20% Notes / Commercial Description: Monks had fasting figured out. No food? No problem. Just drink a Double Bock. Thick and chewy with intense notes of caramel, chocolate and dried stone fruit, ‘Nator (as we call him) serves as a tribute to this liquid bread style.Eis Maker | Jack's Abby BrewingCheck out Episode # 19 of the Craft Beer Storm Podcast where we interview Jack of Jack’s Abby – here is link:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-19-jack-of-jacks-abby-lagers-talks-beer/id1438117278?i=1000424132145Brewed by: Jack's Abby Brewing Massachusetts, United Statesjacksabbybrewing.com Style: German Eisbock Alcohol by volume (ABV): 13.00% Notes / Commercial Description: Eis is the German word for Ice. A former distillation process in making Eis Beer would be to freeze it, remove the ice, and collect what remained. While today’s beer, like Eis Maker, is no longer produced this way, it is used as a connotation that the beer is very strong.You will find this Eis Bock to be sweet, malty and boozy with notes of raisin, dark fruit and similar profile of a barley wine.Subscribe to Craft Beer Storm Podcast iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/craft-beer-storm/id1438117278?mt=2*** A Top 20 Podcast in Food on iTunes ***Michael Potorti is the Host of Craft Beer Storm and Founder/Brewer at Beara Brewing Co. in Portsmouth, NH*** Interested in starting your own brewery?
