Get ready to decrypt the complexities of cyber safety and stay informed. Stand at the frontier of cyber security news, where every insight is a key to unlocking the mysteries of the digital domain. Your voyage through the cyber news vortex starts now. [00:00:29] offsetkeyz: Welcome back to the daily decrypt. Today we're joined by hot girl farmer. Who's going to. Help recap the breaches from the last week. your favorite segment who's been popped. Then we're going to be talking about the magnet goblins gobbling up one day vulnerabilities. And finally. The word, press pop-up plugin vulnerability persists popping approximately 3,300 sites. [00:00:54] transition: Thanks for [00:01:00] watching! [00:01:00] hgf: first up on our list is a chili tail from the tech giant Microsoft on March 9th. Microsoft announced that Russian hackers, chilly from their previous solar winds attack, decided to warm up by spying on some emails of Microsoft, senior leaders. The hack evolved into a frosty situation with some of Microsoft secure source code stolen. Switching over to Switzerland where things got a bit too neutral for their liking on March 8th, the Swiss government found itself in a knot tighter than a Swiss wristwatch. A ransomware attack leaked 65,000 government documents. It appears the hackers played their cards, right with the play ransomware gang, proving that sometimes neutrality attracts more than just peace. You know, what if only they had some witches watching those Swiss wristwatches, which, which would, which, where, which Swiss watch. There were three witches. And there were three Swiss wristwatches, which witch would watch which Swiss wristwatch. Absolutely not. [00:02:00] Now pour one out for the Duvel Moortgat brewery on March 9th found its production as stale as the beer in a forgotten glass. The brewery known for its spirited, Duvel faced a ransomware attack that halted it's hops. It's a sobering reminder that no industry is immune and perhaps it's time for cyber attackers to barley there. Brew up some better hobbies, maybe. They be brewing up something. Yikes. March six, brought a cold front to Canada's fin track freezing some of it systems or the cyber incident as crisp as the Canadian winter, while their intelligence system stayed snug and warm. It's a stark reminder that even those guarding the treasure need to watch their own chest. Lastly Hamilton, a Canadian city got a taste of digital disruption, but services paralyzed faster than a moose caught in headlights. The ransomware attack confirmed on March 5th has shown that even city services can get frozen over in the cyber blizzard. It's a digital reminder that in the game of cybersecurity, sometimes you go hockey stick and sometimes you're [00:03:00] the puck. Mm. Canadians love hockey. Us too. That's what I hear anyways. [00:03:06] transition: Thanks for watching! [00:03:12] offsetkeyz: All right. So the magnet goblins are gobbling up one day. Vulnerabilities. This. Is coming to you from checkpoint research. Published on March 8th, check the show notes for the URL. But if financially motivated cyber threat actor called magnet goblin. Is getting really good at exploiting one day vulnerabilities. And one day vulnerabilities are essentially vulnerabilities that are announced. And discovered already. But not yet patched. So the one day signifies about how much time attackers have to exploit these vulnerabilities before they get patched. And the magnet goblets have gotten really good at exploiting one day vulnerabilities.. The magnet goblins have targeted such systems as Ivanti connect, secure VPN, Magento ClixSense and. [00:04:00] Potentially Apache active MQ. And they use these vulnerabilities to deploy a variety of malware, including the novel Linux version of nerdy and rat, which is a remote access Trojan and warp wire, a JavaScript credential stealer. Magnet goblins, rapid adoption of one day. Vulnerabilities really just emphasizes the problem we have with patching. And the need for it. There. Operations have historically centered around financial gain. As opposed to some other motivations, like. Political or social or hacktivism. They're all about the money. And they usually use techniques. Revolving around data theft to include ransomware. Really whatever they can use to get their money. There isn't much news here other than the fact that the magnet goblins. Are out there and we really. Are behind. On our practices of updating as well as on our updates. . So as soon as a one day vulnerability comes out, make sure to check. The specifics of [00:05:00] that vulnerability and look for the indicators of compromise surrounding it. [00:05:15] offsetkeyz: Alright, and to wrap up today's stories, We're going to be talking about that. WordPress pop-up plugin. Vulnerability that was announced last November. Recently seen an uptick. In exploits. It's impacting. The plugin version is 4.2 0.3 and older. And involves a cross site, scripting vulnerability. And really highlights the reluctance of WordPress users to update their plugins. So if you're a WordPress administrater or consumer of WordPress websites, which most of us are one of those two things. If not, both. The WordPress plugin must be active and also creating popups on your site. So for example, this plugin is enabled by default. When you. Launch a new WordPress website, which we don't [00:06:00] love. But the good news is that even though it's enabled by default, It must be creating pop-ups in order for it to be. Exploited. My fear when reading this was that, yes, this is a default plugin. And since it's a default plugin, there are what 300,000 WordPress sites out there, all with this plugin, just chilling, probably on updated. And unutilized but luckily it must be utilized as well as enabled. And that's because the attackers inject PHP code into one of the events. That triggers the pop-up. And that PHP code is then stored on the server, alongside the WordPress site, making it a stored cross site, scripting vulnerability. Which means that anyone who accesses the site and sees the pop-up. Is vulnerable. To that malicious PHP code. And that code can do many things. It can try to hijack your session cookie, which. Is the ultimate goal, because then the attacker is you [00:07:00] without actually having to log in. Or it could redirect you to fishing sites or really anything that they want. So if you're a WordPress admin, obviously update or disable. I'm going to lean towards disabled because pop-ups are really annoying. Especially since they're now vulnerable. Go ahead and use a banner. Go ahead and open up a new tab somewhere, but don't. Pop up right. As I'm about to click something on your website, I'm immediately going to navigate away from your website. If there's a, pop-up sorry for the rant. If you're a consumer. Try grabbing a pop-up blocker from Google Chrome app store. I think Google Chrome even comes with a built in app. For blocking pop-ups. And whether or not it blocks the specific pop-up on the site that you're visiting. It will at least alert you that there is a pop-up. And allow you to confirm or deny pop-ups on that site. So better than nothing. But yeah. Totally against pop-ups as a practice, I'm really glad my WordPress site doesn't have any popups for this reason. . And [00:08:00] also for the reason to not annoy the crap out of the few website, visitors that I get. If you'd like to visit a website with no popups, no advertisements. Go ahead and check out. Daily decrypt.news. Just the words, daily decrypt.news, and you will find words and pictures and sounds. But no ads. And no pop-ups. All right. That's all we've got for you today. Quick episode. Huge. Thanks to hot girl farmer for coming on and delivering the hot breaches in who's been popped. We will talk to you some more tomorrow. [00:09:00]

Anouk Lagae, CEO van Accent Jobs, is van alle markten thuis – en dat mag je ook letterlijk opvatten. Samen met haar man (en later kinderen) heeft ze zowel in London als Sydney gewoond en gewerkt. Een echt verrijking op zowel persoonlijk als professioneel vlak. Intussen heeft ze grote namen zoals Unilever, Coca-Cola en Duvel Moortgat achter zich gelaten om zich ten dienste te stellen van een Belgisch bedrijf: Accent Jobs. Haar doel? Een voetafdruk nalaten in de maatschappij. Maar, wees gerust, haar veroveringsdrang is niet gaan liggen … Lagae heeft een mentale switch gemaakt in haar 25-jarige loopbaan: “Als jonkie had ik voornamelijk mannelijke energie: ik wilde de wereld veroveren.” Dat is nog steeds een punt op haar agenda, maar de weg ernaartoe verschilt: “Ik wil zo goed mogelijk voor mijn bedrijf zorgen, waardoor groei automatisch volgt. Zo wil ik het potentieel ontgrendelen.” Volgens Lagae ligt de kracht dus niet in wie de beste van het team is, maar wie het meest uit het ganse team haalt. Haar drie kantelmomenten? 00:15:19 - Van iemand in België naar ‘niemand' in het buitenland 00:29:14 - De kunst van het ‘tuinieren' 00:48:30 - Expertise teruggeven aan België Benieuwd naar hoe het wonen en werken in het buitenland haar gevormd heeft of waarom ze de switch gemaakt heeft van een multinational naar een Belgisch familiebedrijf? Kijk of luister dan nu naar het inspirerende gesprek!

Sean talks us through this growth story, and reveals how he nowadays needs to defend his company's position in China as one of the leading brands in the increasingly competitive market for 'craft' beers.

Brewery Ommegang brings trendy new beers to their classical Belgian-style offerings If you're as old as dirt like Brian and me then there's a good chance Brewery Ommegang was part of your craft beer journey.  The late 90s to the early 2000s where was when I really started to explore craft beer.  Mainly because I got my tail out of Arkansas where there was a bit more to explore. Ommegang's estery and spicy beers we're a welcome change of pace from the typical Ambers, Golden Ales, and too-bitter-for-me IPAs of the time.  I love Belgian beers.  Back in the old days, a brewery could offer just 3-4 beers and be successful.  Times have changed, and Ommegang is well aware of those changes.  In the last few years they've introduced Blenderie Ommegang and collaborations with their sibling breweries Boulevard and Firestone Walker, and parent Duvel Moortgat.  They've also got a Belgian Pilsner in the mix and a handful of IPAs.  Beer nerds fret no more, Ommegang has you covered. We talk with Ommegang Brewmaster Phil Leinhart about his background and long brewing career, the new stuff happening at Ommegang,  hop farming in New York state, how they partnered to brew the Game of Thrones series of beers, and more.   CRAFT BEER NEWS 3 Floyds Has No “Immediate Plans” to Reopen The 3 Floyds Brewpub A 12-Ounce Can Shortage Looms Due to People Stocking Up on Beer 125 Colorado Breweries are Collaborating on Colorado Strong Pale Ale THE BEER LIST Brewery Ommegang Bourbon Barrel Vanilla Smoked Porter Game of Thrones: My Watch Has Ended Hennepin Farmhouse Saison Rare Vos Belgian Pale Ale Saison Rosé 2019 Saison Rosé 2020 Three Philosophers Belgian Quadrupel Original Blueberry Coffee Bourbon Barrel Wine Barrel Odd 13 Razooka Jane Fruited Sour Piedmont Brewery Satisfied American Lager Pipeworks Punch In Punch Out Pale Ale with pineapple, cherries, and tangerines Weldwerks Coffee French Toast Stout Wild Heaven Fauci Spring Acai Pale Ale ICYMI: More from The Beer of the North 14th Star Brewing with co-founder Steve Gagner | Ep. 193 Lawson’s Finest Liquids with Sean Lawson | Ep. 190 Non-Alcoholic Craft Beer with Athletic Brewing Co. | Ep. 164

The Bucket List: Beer1000 Adventures, Pubs, Breweries, FestivalsBy Justin Kennedy Intro: Welcome to the number one cookbook podcast, Cookery by the Book, with Suzy Chase. She's just a home cook in New York City, sitting at her dining room table, talking to cookbook authors.Justin Kennedy: I'm Justin Kennedy, and my latest book is The Bucket List Beer.Suzy Chase: Whether you're planning a pub crawl, a weekend in the country or a long vacation, this book is chock-full of ideas for exploring the world's best beer destinations. I have to call attention to how comprehensive this book is. Over 400 pages, it's so heavy.Suzy Chase: You list 1,000 of the best beer experiences around the world, so what's your background in beer and where did you begin to dig into this beer exploration?Justin Kennedy: My background in beer probably predates my college days, unfortunately, but, in college, I really started getting interested in beer and maybe beyond your usual sneaking your dad's six packs or whatever, but I started really getting into beer when I went to grad school in Cleveland, Ohio, and there was a bar around the corner called Le Cave De Vin which... it's a weird little bar that opened... I think it's... It opened at eight o'clock and stayed open until about 4:00 in the morning, and there was this subterranean space that had all these crazy nooks and crannies, and there was vintage beer and fresh beer from local breweries, and I was just amazed by all the different stuff that was going on.Justin Kennedy: After that, I moved to Washington, D.C., and it's another great beer-drinking town with a lot of great bars, at the time, not a lot of breweries, but it was a good place to get into beer, and I started writing about beer when I was living there, freelancing for the Washington City Paper, which is an all-weekly that came out, a free little paper, and I was covering beer for that, and then I moved to New York about a decade ago, and I enrolled at... in the NYU food studies program and, from there, I started traveling a lot and writing more and more about beer as a real thing, so that's my background in beer exploration.Suzy Chase: You mentioned vintage beer. What's that?Justin Kennedy: Vintage beer is beer that's aged somewhat. It can be aged for a few months. It could be aged years. It could even be aged decades. Typically, it's aged in a bottle. It's aged on purpose most of the time, but sometimes there's vintage beer that's discovered in the back of someone's closet or something like that, and then not all beer is meant to... I would say 99.9% of beer is meant to be consumed fresh, but vintage beer is beer that has some kind of characteristic, either high alcohol or high acidity or something like that that can preserve it for a long period of time.Suzy Chase: I've never heard of that, so talk about the numbers of breweries in the United States now.Justin Kennedy: The early 1900s, there were about 2,000 breweries in the US, and that number slowly declined up until Prohibition and, for 13 years, we had no breweries at all, and then, after Prohibition, people started making beer again, but there were only about 700 breweries, and then, from post-Prohibition up until 1979, it slowly declined until the number dropped to 89 in 1979, so there were fewer than 90 breweries in the entire country, and then, in 1979, Jimmy Carter repealed the ban on homebrewing, and that got a lot of people interested in making beer themselves, which then meant they were taking their hobbies and making them a profession, so, between 1979 and then the mid-'90s, it got up to about 1,500 breweries. From the mid-'90s until now, it's more than tripled, and the number today is 7,000 breweries.Suzy Chase: In terms of styles, let's say German-style beer, can you get that in the Midwest? Can you get that everywhere?Justin Kennedy: You can get pretty much any style of beer anywhere. A good example of a German-style brewery in the Midwest is a very called Urban Chestnut, which is in St. Louis, and they make some of the best German-style lagers in the country, and it's the type of beer I would put up against any actual German beer. It's really that good.Suzy Chase: I love that in each description you state why this pick is important. Why did you include that?Justin Kennedy: I think we wanted to highlight why each entry was in here in the first place. It's a thousand small entries. They're short descriptions, but we really wanted to highlight why this place is better than the other places in its region.Suzy Chase: Let's go over some terminology. What's the difference between microbrewery, craft brewery, and a brewpub?Justin Kennedy: This is a little bit of a gray area, but most of those terms are defined by the Brewers Association, which is the craft brewers sponsor agency or whatever you want to call it, so, a microbrewery... It's all based on production numbers. A microbrewery makes a certain number of beers. I think it's 100,000 barrels or less, something like that. A craft brewery is defined as an independent brewery that doesn't have much outside investment, so a good example for a brewery that used to be a craft brewery and is not anymore is something like Goose Island, which got acquired by Anheuser-Busch a few years ago, and then brewpub is, strictly speaking, a brewery that's on-premise at a restaurant, so it serves food and it makes beer under the same roof.Suzy Chase: When beers like Goose Island get acquired, does the quality go down?Justin Kennedy: That's a really good question. In some ways, the quality is improved because it's more consistent, but a lot of the character is washed away from that, so it's hard to say. I think the reputation definitely is somewhat lowered, but it's a tough call, and there's been a lot of these acquisitions over the last few years mainly by Anheuser-Busch, but also by some other companies. MillerCoors has a couple.Suzy Chase: Can or bottle?Justin Kennedy: For me, a majority of beers I like in a can, but a few beers I just can't drink from a can like traditional Belgian ale. Saisons, Trippels, things like that I think have to be in a bottle.Suzy Chase: Same here. I feel like the can is colder.Justin Kennedy: Yeah, that's one thing. It does get colder. It feels colder. It feels better in your hand. It's easier to recycle. It's lighter. I do a lot of bikepacking and camping, and it's easier to transport that stuff than bottles.Suzy Chase: Yeah, I love Saison Dupont, and I would never think of drinking that in a can.Justin Kennedy: Same. A lot of those beers have... They've tried to put them into cans, and even like Rodenbach is now available in cans, and I just think it's not the same.Suzy Chase: I wanted to chat about a couple of spots in this book. First is McSorley's, the oldest Irish tavern in New York City. They have two beers on tap, dark and light, and it was a men's-only establishment up until 1970 when Barbara Shaum, owner of a leather goods store right down the street, sauntered in for the first time. Talk a little bit about McSorley's.Justin Kennedy: Yeah, it's this traditional Irish tavern along East-7th Street between 2nd Avenue and 3rd Avenue, and it's just a storied place that's... It's weathered. It really looks haggard, but it's also like one of the coolest places to drink. Instead of a single beer, you're served two mugs, two eight-ounce mugs, which I think is really a cool, quirky little thing. There's a great cheese and onions plate that they serve. That's strange, but also just fits in perfectly, and it's like this touristy spot, but also has some real history to it. It was one of my favorite places and the first... one of the first places I drank when I moved to New York 10 years ago.Suzy Chase: It's funny, because I moved to New York in '96 to do cookbook publicity, and I was looking around for an apartment, and my real estate agent showed us apartments, and then he said, "We have to go to McSorley's," and I was like, "What?" It was awesome.Justin Kennedy: Everybody loves it. It's one of those places that brings everyone together. It's not just a certain type of clientele. Everybody goes to McSorley's, and it's awesome.Suzy Chase: You also include the Blind Tiger Ale House, one of New York's first craft pubs, which was on Hudson and West-10th for years and years, and now it's on Bleecker. The space to me doesn't feel right because, over on West-10th, there's a Starbucks where the old Blind Tiger used to be, but the new place just doesn't feel right to me.Justin Kennedy: I'm sorry to hear that. When I moved to New York, the Tiger had already moved, so I had never been to the original spot. The new spot, it's just consistently a great place to drink. They always have some of the newest beers that are available in town, and they also have this deep cellar of vintage beers and other special kegs that they put on pretty much every week, so, every time you go in there, you're bound to find something new and also something really special, and I think it's evidenced by their regulars. They have a huge regular crowd there, and it's a gathering place for a certain beer geek of a certain age in New York City.Suzy Chase: My husband and all of his squash friends that play squash go there.Justin Kennedy: That's great. To me, the Tiger is one of those places where everybody goes. I started going there because I was going to NYU and it was right down the street, and we would gather there and it was just... It's an awesome place to drink.Suzy Chase: Now to Fraunces Tavern, way downtown in New York City, can you share the George Washington story?Justin Kennedy: Sure, so Fraunces Tavern is way down the tip of southern Manhattan. It's one of the oldest buildings in the city, and it was a tavern and a... It's like a restaurant-and-inn type of place, and, as the story goes, I think it was in 1783, George Washington was hosting a dinner for his officers of the Continental Army, and they were having what was called a turtle feast, so it was a dinner that was based around lots of turtle dishes, and it's a legendary spot, and it's where he said farewell to his officers of the Continental Army, and so now it has this. It has a museum. It has a Tavern, and there's even a brewery that's associated with it called the Porterhouse Brewing Company, which is, oddly enough, actually based in Ireland, but it's their outpost, their American outpost for their beer now.Suzy Chase: I didn't know that.Justin Kennedy: Yeah, it's a very strange setup.Suzy Chase: Yeah, I'm part of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and we used to have our DAR meetings down there, and I would always...Justin Kennedy: Cool.Suzy Chase: ... sit and think, "Did George Washington sit here and drink or did he sit over here and drink?"Justin Kennedy: I mean, it's a great place to drink, too, because it has a huge whiskey selection. It's on the Whiskey Trail. It's a really cool bar, but the Brewery Association is... It's a little bit of a head-scratcher, but I think it's an ownership thing.Suzy Chase: Lots of good beers coming out of the Midwest. Talk about Boulevard beer in Kansas City, my favorite.Justin Kennedy: All right, so Boulevard is one of the original Midwestern craft breweries. It was founded in the late '80s, and it makes some of the most totally reliable, what I call crushable beer, so beers that are easy to drink, but they also have this line of really interesting barrel-aged beers like Tank 7 Saison, which is one of my favorites, and the brewery is actually... Speaking of acquisitions, it was actually sold to Duvel Moortgat, which is a Belgian company, a few years ago and is now part of this umbrella company that includes Ommegang here in New York up in the Finger Lakes and also Firestone Walker in California.Suzy Chase: I know. I'm kind of bummed that they got acquired, but good for them.Justin Kennedy: To me, that's one example of a brewery that has... The quality has not gone downhill since acquisition. They've continued to do the same cool stuff.Suzy Chase: Prairie Artisan Ales is out of Tulsa. I love them, too. Describe the crazy Bomb! Imperial stout.Justin Kennedy: Bomb! is... It started off as a specialty release, and now I think it's year-round, but it's this huge Imperial stout. I think it's about 12 or 14% alcohol. It has all kinds of ingredients added to it, spices, cinnamon, I think even chili peppers, and it's just this big, thick, viscous beer, and they have a few different iterations that are sold throughout the year, including Christmas Bomb!, which is one of my favorites, and it comes into this short little stubby bottle, and it has a really funny artwork on it.Suzy Chase: See, my problem with the 12 or 13% alcohol is you can't drink that many.Justin Kennedy: Now, it's a sipping beer, so, I think, a few ounces, even a small bottle like that, you're supposed to share with friends.Suzy Chase: Oh, no one told me that. That's good to know. Oregon seems like a good beer-drinking state. Talk about them, how do you pronounce it, LABrewatory...Justin Kennedy: LABrewatory I think is how you say it.Suzy Chase: ... in Portland.Justin Kennedy: Yeah, so LABrewatory is a nanobrewery, which is they're making beer on a keg-by-keg basis, so it's really small production, and they're also known for never making the same beer twice, so each batch is different. It's maybe not necessarily a new beer, but it's... It has a different hop and a different yeast strain or something like that, but it's a small brewpub in Portland, and, you're right, Oregon is by far one of the best states, if not the best, beer-drinking states in the country right now and has been for a long time.Suzy Chase: Now to outside of the United States, describe the fermented maize beverage, how it's made and where you drink it.Justin Kennedy: All right, so I think you're referring to chicha, which is fermented blue maize that's a specialty of Peru and a couple of other parts of South America, and, traditionally, it's chewed by humans. The maize is chewed and then spit into these communal vats like little balls, and it's said that an enzyme that's in human saliva is what activates the maize and makes it... convert it to fermentable sugars, so it's not really a commercially available thing, but what you can do is, if you're visiting especially like a touristy area like Machu Picchu, there's these houses that have red flags or flowers lining the area outside, and, typically, these are what are known as chicha bars, but they're not really open to the public, so you'll probably need a local guide to help you get in. It's like going into someone's house and drinking what they've made, the home brew that they've made straight from their tanks, and, what I've been told, it doesn't really taste like beer at all. It's more like a cold corn soup.Suzy Chase: No, thanks. No. No. No.Justin Kennedy: Yeah, it's a little strange.Suzy Chase: That's gross. Is that the grossest beer you know of in the book?Justin Kennedy: That's probably the gross beer right now I feel.Suzy Chase: The Middle East section really piqued my interest. You call the Birzeit Brewery, or Shepherds Brewery, which is north of Ramallah, Palestine, one of the Middle East's most exciting breweries. How come?Justin Kennedy: I think, there's not a lot of breweries in the Middle East in general, and this is one that's really doing modern craft beers there. They have modern technology. They're making pilsners, lagers and other things, but they're also doing beers like stout with coffee, and they do a Christmas ale that's infused with cinnamon, so they're really doing what I think of as more modern styles rather than just your traditional pale ale and blonde ale and all that stuff, and they also do what's become this kind of big beer festival. It's a two-day fest, which is one of the only beer festivals that I know of in the Middle East.Suzy Chase: The term African Guinness caught my eye. What's that?Justin Kennedy: It's very different than the Guinness that we know from our local Irish pub. It's really boozy. It's about twice the alcohol content of regular Guinness, and it's also made with sorghum and corn, so it has this bitterness, but also has a real smooth mouth feel, so it's like high ABV stout, and it's not nitrogenated like the Guinness that we have here as. It's like a totally different beverage, but it was originally brewed to be exported to these countries, to Africa and also to some parts of the Caribbean here, and it's just this big, boozy stout that you wouldn't think of as being very thirst-quenching in these hot regions, but that's why the... The exporting is why it was originally sent there.Suzy Chase: Over in Tokyo, they have karaoke haunts and record bars. Describe those.Justin Kennedy: Record bar is like stepping into someone's house. There's typically only one or two people that work there, and it's your bartender who's also your DJ, and they spin records, the actual vinyl, and they can get really niched. I mean, some of them are jazz and blues bars, but others only play hiphop from 1986 to 1989 or something like that, and then there's others that focus on a certain subgenre of heavy metal or something, so there are all these kind of really niched places, and they typically serve one or two beers, and it's really about the experience. With the cover charge, it's a small operation, and you're supporting one or two people. It's a really cool, unique experience, and then karaoke bars are the opposite of that. They are these big, massive halls where you get pitchers of cheap, cheap rice lager and just drink all night long and sing, and they're just a lot of fun.Suzy Chase: You include a North Korean microbrewery, one of the last frontiers of the craft brewery world. Talk a little bit about this.Justin Kennedy: There's a lot of beer that's made in North Korea, but most of it is not the type of... it's mass produced adjunct lagers, but there are... This is one of the things. I haven't been there myself, but I had one of my freelancers that worked on this, and he said there's a hotel, a few hotels that have brewpubs on premise, and it's like McSorley's in some way. Your choices are either yellow beer or black beer, and that's all you're given, but it is fresh beer and it's made right there on premise. I would say, compared to... especially compared to South Korea, there's no real comparison, but there is a small microbrewery scene in North Korea itself.Suzy Chase: Now, I want to hear some of your personal opinions. What do you look for when you hit the pub?Justin Kennedy: I like places that have a tightly curated selection of beer. I don't like walking in and seeing a hundred different choices because, if you see that, you know that most of the beer or maybe half of it is probably not going to be very fresh. I like a place that is doing a lot of the picking for me ahead of time.Justin Kennedy: I also like places that are more fun. I don't like a lot of pretension when it comes to beer. I like places that you can go and hang out and actually talk to your... the people that you're there with, have a conversation that's not overly loud, not overly crowded. I'm a dad. Lately, I've been hanging out at a lot of places with other families, other dads, so it's really changed for me over the last few years, but that's what I'm looking for when I go to a pub these days.Suzy Chase: What's your favorite bar in the book?Justin Kennedy: Let's see, my favorite bar in the book is probably a bar called Novare Res up in Portland, Maine. It's a geeky beer bar that's off this little alleyway. It's hard to find. It's in downtown Portland, but it's not something you would just stumble upon. You have to go down an alley and then you come upon it after you make another turn, so it's... but it's this cozy little space, and they always have local beer from Portland, but also some really cool imported beers. They have another vintage list with just some really bottles that you're probably not going to find anywhere else. That's probably my favorite bar in the book.Suzy Chase: What's the quirkiest bar in the book?Justin Kennedy: I think the quirkiest bar in the book is... It's really hard to pronounce. It's in Belgium. It's called In de Verzekering Tegen de Grote Dorst, so it translates to-Suzy Chase: Close enough haha.Justin Kennedy: It translates to in the insurgence against great thirst, so it's a bar in Belgium. It's only open on Sunday mornings and then on certain church holidays. It's associated with the church. It was built in the mid-1800s and it's been operational ever since, but it specializes in something called lambic, which is traditional to the region. It's this spontaneous fermented beer, meaning, there's no yeast that's added. It's just whatever is in the air is inoculating the beer and creating the beer, so they specialize in that. There was a woman that owned it for 50 years, but she tried to retire in the '90s and sell it off. Two brothers took it over, and today it's run by them, but it's just this quirky little, weird place. It's only open for a few hours every week, and I think people go there after church and drink lambic and hang out on the town square. It's really cool.Suzy Chase: The sober curious trend is so big right now. Are there any nonalcoholic beers that you like?Justin Kennedy: Yeah, so, earlier this week, I actually had the first ones I've had of the new wave, and it was from a brewery in Connecticut called Athletic Brewing, and I've got to say the beer was pretty good. It wasn't great. It had a tea-like quality. Some of it did, but they had a coffee stout that was really good, and it's completely nonalcoholic. I think it's interesting. I don't think it's something that I'm personally going to pursue, but I think it's also part of this trend of wellness and looking more towards low calorie, low ABV, low carb "beer."Suzy Chase: Now to my segment called My Favorite Cookbook. What is your favorite all-time cookbook and why?Justin Kennedy: This was a hard question for me, so I have hundreds of cookbooks in my house, and I love a lot of them, but I think, my favorite cookbook, it's a book called Honey from a Weed by Patience Gray. Do you know her?Suzy Chase: No. What is that?Justin Kennedy: Okay, so it's this strange little book. It came out in the '80s, and Patience Gray was this kind of an English food writer who ended up marrying later in her life a Belgian sculptor, and they lived all over the Mediterranean part of Europe, so they were in Provence, they're in Italy, they were in Catalonia for a while. They were on a couple of Greek islands, and then they finally settled into this abandoned farmhouse in Apulia in Southern Italy. They spent the rest of their years there, and she started working on the book I believe soon after they moved there in the '70s, and it's like a document of every place they lived and recipes that she'd gathered, and it's also like very of-the-moment at this point because it's about foraging and wild edibles and stuff like that.Justin Kennedy: It's just a very strange, esoteric book. There's no photographs in it. It's all just drawings that she did of plants and fish and other animals. It's more of a document than anything else. I keep a copy on my bedside table and just flip through it a couple of times a week. It's so interesting.Suzy Chase: I love that. That's so cool.Justin Kennedy: You got to get a copy. It's really cool.Suzy Chase: Where can we find you on the web and social media?Justin Kennedy: I'm on Instagram, @justinxkennedy, and you can find my website. It's www.justin-kennedy.com.Suzy Chase: Thanks, Justin, for chatting with me on Cookery by the Book podcast.Justin Kennedy: Thanks for having me.Outro: Subscribe over on CookerybytheBook.com, and thanks for listening to the number one cookbook podcast, Cookery by the Book.

Today’s guest is Anouk Lagae, President Core Europe for Duvel Moortgat - an independent, family-run Belgian brewery - a role she's held for the past two years, after being promoted from her previous role as Chief Marketing Officer. After graduating with a degree in business engineering, Anouk held marketing and management roles at Unilever and Coca-Cola, the latter of which saw her travel the world – living in Brussels, Australia, and London - a “life-changing” experience, as she describes it. After deciding to return to Belgium with her young family, Anouk set her sights on working for a Belgian company with international aims – enter Duvel Moortgat. Despite having no beer background, Anouk tells us how she felt embraced by her new Duvel family, and in turn, how she embraced learning every detail about Duvel, which helped her to discover and fall in love with the beer. We talk about her day-to-day role, how her new role in management differs from her previous role as CMO, why she loves marketing, and what drives her today. Anouk tells me what it’s like to be the first, and only, woman on the Duvel Moortgat management committee and about the sense of responsibility she feels to help support other women in the business and the industry more broadly. We also talk about the best bits of her job, her interests outside of beer (and how those interests are now more relevant than ever with Duvel Moortgat’s latest partnership), and, of course, what she enjoys most about being a part of the beer industry. Here she is...   Full disclosure: I work with Anouk in my role as Marketing Manager at Duvel Moortgat UK

In this episode of Taste Radio Insider, we continued our exploration into the evolving food and beverage market in the U.K. from the perspective of two London-based entrepreneurs: Jarr Kombucha co-founder Adam Vanni and Moju Drinks co-founder Rich Goldsmith. Each discussed how they are scaling their brands in the emerging categories of kombucha and cold-pressed juice in the U.K., and what they view as the biggest opportunities for their respective companies. Note that our interview with Vanni came prior to the announcement that beer giant Duvel Moortgat had acquired a 60 percent majority stake in Jarr Kombucha, a deal that he alluded to during the conversation. Also in this episode: the hosts discussed notable moments and presentations from day one of BevNET Live Winter 2018, held in Santa Monica on Dec. 3 and 4. Show notes: 1:41: You Can See The Pacific From Our Room: Recorded at the Taste Radio studio at BevNET Live Winter 2018, BevNET’s Ray Latif, John Craven, Mike Schneider and Jeff Klineman riffed on day one of the conference. The conversation included discussion about the semifinal round of New Beverage Showdown 16, notable presentations by GT’s Living Foods founder/CEO GT Dave and Fiji Water president Elizabeth Stephenson, a breakout session on CBD beverages, BevNET’s Cannabis Forum and our Best of 2018 awards. A big thanks to the sponsor of the Taste Radio studio at BevNET Live, Blue Pacific Flavors, which makes authentic fruit and sweet flavors for global food and beverage brands. 13:45: Interview: Adam Vanni, Co-Founder, Jarr Kombucha -- On location in London, BevNET CEO John Craven sat down with Vanni, who discussed the launch of Jarr and its development and compared the market for kombucha in the U.S. and U.K. He also offered insight into the evolution of the kombucha category, why it’s picking up traction in British bars and restaurants and the usage occasions for British consumers. Finally, Vanni addressed capacity constraints for Jarr and funding an expansion of its facility. 25:57: Interview: Rich Goldsmith, Co-Founder, Moju Drinks -- Goldsmith spoke about the founding story for Moju, which was launched in 2015, its product portfolio and brand positioning. He also discussed the evolution of the market for cold-pressed juice in U.K., how the country “cherry picks” and adopts emerging trends from the U.S., and continued challenges in communicating the meaning of cold-pressed. Goldsmith also spoke about British consumers’ growing concerns about sugary drinks, differences in U.S. and U.K. palates, and what he views as the biggest opportunity for Moju.

Lagers still represent the most consumed style of beer in the U.S. and it’s not even close. But consumers demand more than the watered-down adjunct-laden fare peddled by the biggest brewers and have pushed slightly less-big brewers to make some tastier options. We blind taste eight lagers - four from “macro” brands, and four from “non-macro” brands* - and try to guess what we’re drinking while ranking our preferences. It’s another one filled with blind surprises and one very unhappy host, but we’ll also take you to Dark Walgreens, toss a few barbs at the band Korn, and introduce you to The Ham Gambler. You can hang your hat on that.

Today’s guest is Natalya Watson of Duvel Moortgat. Watson’s upbringing was something of an adventure, born to Northern Irish parents in Canada, then living back in Northern Ireland before growing up in California. Watson would then go on to live in New York, before eventually putting her British passport to good use, and moving to London in 2015. The start of her new adventure in beer here in the UK began behind the bar at Mother Kelly’s—an East London bar and bottle shop that’s become something of an institution among beer fans. Shortly after this she landed her current gig at Duvel Moortgat, where she’s held her role as UK marketing manager for almost three years. The Duvel-Moortgat family currently consists of 12 of brands spread acrossmainland Europe and the United States. However, it doesn’t presently have a stake in a UK brewery. The UK arm of its business looks after seven of these brands within this territory, which are: De Koninck, Vedett, Maredsous, Liefmans, Brasserie Achouffe, Boulevard in Kansas City and Duvel itself. Not all of the brands in its portfolio fall under Duvel UK’s jurisdiction, however, with examples like California’s Firestone Walker and Bernard in Czechia acting autonomously in this market. It’s an interesting time for Duvel in the UK—the British beer market is a landscape that’s unrecognizable from what it was 10, maybe even 5 years ago. It needs to find a way to compete in this space but in a way, the activation of the modern UK beer market has been a benefit to the Belgian company. In fact Duvelas a beer saw a 16% retail sales jump in 2017, and this year that figure might be closer to 25%. Remarkable numbers for a beer that will be celebrating itscentenary in 2023. Perhaps this is because as a beer, Duvel no longer looks so alien on the supermarket shelf to some consumers. In Britain—a land built on the back of sessionable ales—an 8.5% Belgian Golden Ale is nothing if not a little intimidating. Now, Duvel has been joined on these shelves by Double IPA’s, Imperial Stouts, Saisons and more, somehow making it feel more accessible than ever. Over the course of the next hour we’ll also find out why Duvel has decided to roll out a new draft version of its flagship using a unique dispense system. And we’ll speak about its US brands like Boulevard, Ommegang and Firestone Walker, examining why some of them are more prevalent here in the UK than others.
