In der nächsten BierTalk-Folge wird's… ungewöhnlich: Wir sitzen in einer Kühlzelle. Nicht aus Show-Gründen, sondern weil nebenan gerade gebraut wird – und es hier drin herrlich ruhig ist. Schauplatz ist die Schweiz, genauer: die Brauerei Chen van Loon, und mein Gastgeber ist Jan van Loon. Jan erzählt, wie aus belgischen Wurzeln, Schweizer Alltag und einer ordentlichen Portion Technikleidenschaft (vom Feinmechaniker bis zum Maschinenbau) eine kleine, extrem sauber strukturierte Brauerei wurde – inklusive Farbcode für „sauber / nicht sauber“ und dem Spagat zwischen Brauen, Abfüllen, Liefern und Events. Das Herzstück der Folge: Bier trifft Wein – aber nicht als Mixgetränk, sondern als echte Co-Fermentation. Wir probieren das Sauvignon Ale (mit Trauben vergoren) und den Vigneron – Cuvée du Patron (weinige Aromatik ganz ohne Trauben, nur über Hopfen, Säure und Komposition). Zwei Biere, die verblüffend „weinige“ Momente erzeugen – dicht, moussierend, elegant – und perfekt für Beer & Dine. Eine Folge über Genuss, Handwerk, Timing (Hopfengabe nicht vergessen!) – und darüber, wie man mit einer klaren Idee ein Bier baut, das wirklich eine eigene Kategorie sein könnte...

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.

Hugh O'Neill of Alesmith Brewer interviews Andrew Hamilton of Wicklow Wolf Brewing. This Episode is Sponsored by:Berkeley YeastOur Tropics yeast is based on a London Ale strain, but we added a new gene to its genome that codes for a unique thiol-releasing enzyme. The enzyme converts the precursors in barley to free thiols that smell and taste like passionfruit and grapefruit. It's super clean. No off-flavors like burnt rubber or other sulfurous notes. Just tropical aromatics. You don't have to do anything unusual either, like mash hopping. Just pitch dry Tropics and supercharge your hazy IPA.SennosIs your fermentation data still a mystery?

AI is reshaping what it means to be a modern manufacturing professional.When a 30-year veteran retires, decades of expertise used to leave as well. How they ran a machine, which feeds and speeds worked, and all the practical knowledge that separated good from great. Now, Mastercam's AI co-pilots can capture that information and make it instantly accessible. The learning curve that used to take years can now be compressed into months, making manufacturing careers more accessible to the next generation.Chris sits down with Russ Bukowski, President of Mastercam, to explore how CAM technology has evolved from manual G-code programming to AI-powered systems that are fundamentally changing manufacturing accessibility.The conversation covers the business side of manufacturing transformation, why mid-size machine shops and tier-two suppliers are no longer at the mercy of large OEMs, the leadership lessons Russ learned from Walt Disney and why manufacturing salaries are starting at $80K+ for CNC programmers.In this episode, find out:How CAM systems act as a 10x multiplier for manufacturing professionals.The evolution from manual G-code programming to AI-powered CAM systemsWhy Mastercam's AI co-pilot is bridging the knowledge gap left by retiring manufacturing expertsHow post-COVID supply chain vulnerabilities are driving companies to vertically integrateThe power shift giving mid-size manufacturers leverage in negotiations and exclusive supplier agreementsWhy manufacturing needs to be promoted as a viable white-collar careerHow technical expertise creates leadership credibility The importance of visiting customers and talking to shop floor employeesWhat Mastercam's acquisition enabled in terms of investment, innovation, and customer relationshipsEnjoying the show?

It's not going to replace a program or replace an operator, but it is going to enable them to do more and to move more quickly in the business.”“CAM is really that enabler. Without it, the digital design to physical machine process is slow and error-prone. It removes the cognitive burden and makes complex manufacturing possible. It's that 10x multiplier for somebody in manufacturing, making somebody a 10x manufacturing expert because they're able to deliver results so much faster by using computing power.”“I always like to ask myself this as a leader, if nobody was looking, if there were no repercussions, would I still make the right decision?

The Cognitive Crucible is a forum that presents different perspectives and emerging thought leadership related to the information environment. The opinions expressed by guests are their own, and do not necessarily reflect the views of or endorsement by the Information Professionals Association. During this episode, Doug Wilbur discussed propaganda, information warfare, and strategic optimism–emphasizing society's capability for problem-solving. He defined propaganda as any communication intended to influence behavior in the propagandist's favor, distinguishing it from persuasion. Wilbur concluded the Vietnamese were the most successful propagandists, effectively delegitimizing the South Vietnamese government as a US puppet, which made the 1968 Tet Offensive a psychological victory despite military defeat. He explained that communism relies on a messianic eschatology, promising a utopian future. Wilbur also addressed modern threats, noting that AI increases the vulnerability of open societies to personalized disinformation, compounding the challenge of combating propaganda due to people relying on fast-thinking heuristics.

"I'm talking about the schwa, a weak vowel that makes up about 30% of all vowel sounds used in English."今回は「英語で最も使われる母音・シュワー」についてお話しします。/ə/ シュワーの要点（/ə/ シュワー）は、英語の母音の約30%を占める最も頻出する音です。アクセントのない弱い音節で使われる母音です。口をリラックスさせ、喉から軽く「ア」と漏れ出るような音が特徴です。例えば、Bananaという単語。スペル通りに発音すると、「バナナ」となりますがあくまでこれはカタカナ発音。英語では、/ buh NA nuh / という風に、アクセントを置かない弱い音節は大抵この（/ə/ シュワー）で発音されます。これが多くの場合でスペルと発音が一致しない大きな要因でもあります。/ə/ の音をちゃんと把握することは、英語を綺麗に話すためだけでなく、ネイティブの様な速い英語を聞き取るためにも不可欠です。では一緒にこの（/ə/ シュワー）をマスターしましょう！【予備知識】英語の母音の約30%は曖昧 辞書などで発音を調べた時に、このeがひっくり返った「 /ə/ 」の記号を目にしたことはありませんか？最近はググって調べる人の方が多いと思うので、このIPA（国際発音記号）には馴染みのない方も多いと思います。ググると発音はスペルで表されることが多いので、このあいまい母音は「uh」で表されています。しかしこの発音記号は「特定の発音」を表すものというよりは、「記号で表すことが出来ないほど曖昧な音」といった立ち位置なんです。「少し漏れた声」みたいな発音感覚です。日本人にとっては「なんやその曖昧な感じは？はっきりせーや！」って言いたくなりますよね？だからこそ「あいまい母音」と言うわけなんです。英語はストレス（強弱）の言語です。これがその「あいまい母音・シュワー」なるものが存在する理由です。英語を発音する時は必ずどこか１点（長い単語は２点）にアクセントを置き、その音以外は「弱化」してこの /ə/ に変化します。 これが「あいまい母音・シュワー」の正体です。About [əbaʊt]Confront [kənfrʌnt]President [prezədənt]このように、綴りが "a, e, i, o, u" のどれであっても、ストレスがない場所ではシュワになります。また「behind /bɪˈhaɪnd/」など発音記号で /i/ と書かれていても、実際にはシュワーで発音されることが多かったりします。【用法】シュワーがリズムを作るシュワーは、口の筋肉を全く使わない単なる「脱力音」です。しかしこの「脱力」が出来ていないと、全体の発音が崩れてしまいまうので要注意です。出し方: 口を半開きにし、舌も喉もリラックスさせた状態で、弱く「あ」とも「う」ともつかない音を出すだけ。役割: 全ての母音をはっきり発音すると、英語特有のリズム（強弱のうねり）が消えてしまいます。重要な部分（ストレス）を際立たせるために、他の部分をこの「シュワー」で徹底的に脱力するのが英語の発音のコツです。It's all about the rhythm of English./ɪts ɔːl ə ˈbaʊt ðə ˈrɪ ðəm əv ˈɪŋ ɡlɪʃ/【エクササイズ】脱力を基準に発音よく「英語になると声が低くなる」ってことを感じたり、耳にしたりしたことはありませんか？これはあながち間違いではなく、ほとんどの人は「声が低くなる」ことは確かです。なぜかと言うと、英語は基本「脱力」した状態で発音するので、声を日本語ほど張らない分、声は低くなりがちです。今回のシュワーを作るエクササイズでは、この「脱力」がキーになります。脱力を基準として、重要な部分（ストレス）のみ声を張るといった発音を成り立たせましょう。１）ボトムエリアの開拓喉を開いて、力を抜き、声を限界まで下げます。Hah〜↘️声が「カラカラ」と鳴るところまで落としましょう。２）脱力を基準につなげて発音_a BOUT _a BOUT _a BOUT It's all about the rhythm._com MU ni_tet x3It's fun to communicate with people.３）フレーズで応用練習I was kind of worried about the weather because the weather forecast said the wind picks up a little bit today, and it's gonna be a little choppy. But it seems fine. It's gonna be a great day. So let's get to it.結論/ə/ をマスターすることは、英語を綺麗に話すためだけでなく、ネイティブの高速な英語を聞き取るためにも不可欠です。また同時にもっと英語が発音しやすくなります。今日練習した、「脱力を基準としたうねりを起こす様な発音」を是非意識してみてください。そうすれば自然とシュワーのニュアンスもだせる様になり、余計なカタカナ的な母音が減って、より自然な英語発音に近づくはずです。

Today's daily comedy episode proves two things: kids are expensive, and karaoke should absolutely require a permit.We kick things off with an email that had the entire studio arguing like a courtroom drama sponsored by Fisher-Price. A military family's kid chucks a Lego at a friend's 75-inch QLED TV (because of course it was a 75-inch QLED), leaving a tiny but permanent “oops” mark. They do the right thing and offer to replace it — $1,200 later — only to find out the “damaged” TV is getting relocated to the daughter's room. Wait… what? Is that justice? Is that capitalism? Is that just the cost of letting children exist in your home? Rizz, Moon, and King Scott debate responsibility, friendship, and whether the real solution is simply moving to a new town and changing your identity.Then we dive into the wildest dating trend we've heard in a while: “Alpine Divorce.” It sounds like a seasonal IPA. It is not. It's apparently when someone strands their partner in the wilderness as punishment. Romantic! Nothing says “I love you” like abandoning someone mid-hike because they forgot a water bottle. We unpack the psychology behind it and question how this is even a thing. Ghosting? Bad. Ghost-lighting? Worse. Alpine Divorce? Congratulations, you're on a watch list.And then — because we care about the people — we establish the official list of karaoke songs that should be considered arrestable offenses. Whitney Houston? Jail. Bohemian Rhapsody? Straight to court. “My Heart Will Go On”? Emotional felony. The crew breaks down the crimes, the charges, and the sentencing guidelines for murdering everyone's ears at your local bar. It's the kind of public service announcement only a true daily comedy show would dare to provide.Between parenting disasters, dating red flags, and musical war crimes, this episode has everything you expect from your favorite St. Louis daily comedy chaos factory.You've been warned.

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.

Wrapping up a week of non Ballast Point beers with Jeff and David from Ballast Point as they've been shocasing thier "friends" beers leading up to The Art of Beer happening on March 14th. We end with a beer that has traversed space and time to arrive in the glass we're drinking out of. Societe Brewing's The Visitor is a bright IPA that still has hits of pine with a clean and balanced finish.

For White Cane week in February, this year we have a discussion with Elizabeth Lalonde about the recent completion of her Masters Thesis: --An Interpretive Analysis of the Effectiveness of Non-traditional or ‘Structured Discovery' Blindness Rehabilitation in Canada from the Perspective of Blind Service Recipients and teachers This week on Outlook we're speaking with Elizabeth about building confidence as a blind traveler and the difference between route training and the “structured discovery method” we've often spoke about on this show and of which Lalonde teaches at The Pacific Training Centre for the Blind, which she founded and runs on Vancouver Island on the west coast of Canada. She tells us: Structure discovery, it can include routes. Sometimes that's the best way to get somewhere is you wanna learn the route. So it doesn't mean that it excludes more traditional forms of rehabilitation. It just means that it opens the door for other ways of perceiving your environment, learning to perceive your environment in a more holistic way." Elizabeth shares her lived experience of blindness growing up and connecting with an opportunity to “learn blindness skills” training which led her to want to bring the same sort of rehab program to others closer to home. She tells us about the non visual skills they offer at the PTCB and the “Blind People In Charge” program she launched with the help of a grant from the provincial B.C. government. Elizabeth recognises with non visual learning: “When you have sight, you just tend to use it, (you can't help it) so it can distract you from using your other senses to get around and to do things.” We talk about the hesitancy, whether new to blindness or not, for many of us to be afraid of wearing things like sleep shades to remove the distraction of any level of seeing when we're learning how to explore our environment, with all our senses and perceptions, during blindness rehab. We reflect on the types of messages on blindness and early O and M instruction we were given and training we were taught, we highlight the common sense and lived experience in the expression “the blind leading the blind” as sister/co-host Kerry relates that back to her most recent memory of the community and confidence-building that can come from traveling in a group of blind people, and we examine ways of adapting “structure discovery” for the individual and their specific intersectionalities and unique learning styles, Regular Outlook co-host Barry says: “We're getting taught static navigation for a dynamic world,” when it comes to how blind people receive orientation and mobility instruction. This conversational, truly from an international perspective along with our focus on Canada (with the thesis we're featuring for its historical significance to blindness rehabilitation anywhere) episode provides a fairly comprehensive bunch of topics that return, always, to the subject of Elizabeth Lalonde's thesis and our lived experiences with it. We at Outlook want to thank Elizabeth Lalonde for her hard work on presenting us all with a wider window on the landscape of blindness skills training here in Canada, on some more particulars around this thesis, and by doing this on completion of a Master's degree in Community Development from the University of Victoria. Your work on this topic will be an important study and resource of rehabilitation for the blind in Canada and beyond. Through multiple modalities: including literature study and interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA, a qualitative methodology) ) with interviews she conducted with both students and teachers of the “structure discovery model”, Elizabeth paints a clearer picture of the landscape of Canada's attitudes and offerings of blindness skills training.

The boys drink and review Dogfish Head's Sixty-One, which is an IPA brewed with Pinot Noir grapes, then discuss the idea that AI will make us all wealthy while Pigweed's cat prances around the studio. Elon Musk recently said that AI + robotics will eliminate scarcity to the point that there's no real point in saving for retirement. We'll have "universal high income." It's like the Star Trek vision of the future where all your needs are provided for. Does that make any sense? Can an economy function like that? Will "AI abundance" arrive simultaneously for every human need? Who will pay the taxes? What does "lack of scarcity" really mean? There can be an abundance of food, or healthcare. AI isn't going to make more beachfront. How do we get from here to there? What happens to property rights? Will the people who own the AI share their wealth with everybody else? Why? Who will make them do it? When people start losing jobs (by the millions), how will they live? The idea that we'll tax AI to pay the people who are laid off doesn't make sense. If you tax the AI to pay the displaced workers, what have you gained? The internal contradictions in the optimistic view of an AI-driven future are mind-boggling. The boys try to parse through it all.

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 ★

With the plethora of tropical IPAs out in the market today I was surpised to see Pizza Port throw their hat in the ring with Coastin' but in true Pizza Port form they make this IPA true to style and focus on the hoppiness of their beer with a hint of tropical-ness.

How did Noon Whistle Brewing create a West Coast IPA with bold hop flavor but none of the harsh bite that turns skeptics away?From late hopping techniques and water chemistry to managing bitterness perception and “yeast afterbite,” the Noon Whistle team discusses how drinkability became their competitive advantage. Paul Kreiner (Co-Owner & Brewmaster), Mike Condon (Co-Owner), and Joe Condon (Marketing & Creative Director) share how that philosophy helped them win gold with an amber lager, experiment with wild fermentation (including beers that “sucked for a year”), and build a brand that balances hype with approachability.0:00 From Session Beers to Gold Medals at Noon Whistle3:20 The Story Behind the Noon Whistle Name6:22 Why They Started With Low ABV Session Beers8:50 How Drinkers Think About ABV vs Taste9:56 What Is “Yeast Afterbite” in Beer?10:36 How Paul & Mike Decided to Open a Brewery11:59 From Homebrewer to Siebel Institute Graduate13:58 Does Chicago Have the Best Water for Brewing?14:54 Would You Taste a Water Profile Change?16:43 How the Craft Beer Business Has Changed in 10 Years18:34 How Noon Whistle Built Wide Distribution in Illinois19:50 Joe Condon's Branding Strategy & Costco Packaging23:44 Describing the “Baby Case” 24-Pack Box29:49 Hop Prism Blue: A Less-Bitter West Coast IPA38:48 Bruski Amber Lager Wins World Beer Cup Gold39:57 Amber Ale vs Amber Lager: What's the Difference?43:06 What It's Like to Win World Beer Cup Gold45:39 Funderen Wild Sour & FOBAB Silver Medal55:08 How Important Is Barrel Aging to Noon Whistle?57:43 Barrel-Aged S'more Nutz Stout59:28 Does Every Chicago Brewery Need Barrel Aging?1:03:32 The Intense R&D Behind Their Tavern-Style Pizza1:07:00 Pause & Pause Plus THC Sparkling Water1:16:26 The Final Four Questions1:22:47 Favorite Beer & Food PairingsAbout Noon Whistle Brewing: Noon Whistle officially opened its doors in 2014 with the original production facility and tasting room in Lombard, IL.

The Fort Point HenHouse merger is the subject today with Justin Catalana of Fort Point Brewing and Colin MacDonald of HenHouse Brewing, on Brew Ha Ha with Herlinda Heras. Justin is calling in on the phone today while his friend and colleague Colin is in the studio at Wine C0untry Radio with Herlinda Heras. Fort Point Beer Co. has been featured on Brew Ha Ha before, the last time was this episode. Colin has been on the show before, most recently this episode in 2024 about the Freshtival that year. Recently HenHouse and Fort Point breweries joined forces. Although they still produce beers under the two brands, Colin describes them as having complimentary strengths. HenHouse is rooted in the North Bay and Fort Point has grown to be San Francisco's biggest craft beer. The first beer tasted today is an alcohol-free KSA from Fort Point. SF Beer Week is happening all over the Bay Area. Fort Point makes KSA which is a non-alcoholic Kölsch style beer. They also make other NA beers. Herlinda will be with Fort Point at the Dim Sum Brunch at the Hong Kong Lounge on Saturday. KSA is the beer they are most known for. Kolsch style beer comes from Cologne, Germany. They will be serving this beer tonight in the same style as a brew pub in Cologne, in the same kind of glasses. The event on Saturday is a huge Dim Sum service with Fort Point beers. This is one of Herlinda’s favorite SF Beer Week events. Russian River Brewing Co. is open in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Visit their website for up-to-date Pliny the Younger 2026 information. Big Chicken Big Chicken is a double IPA that HenHouse makes once a year. It is also a statement about freshness. They want it to be the freshest beer it can be. You can buy beer that was packaged the same day. Fresh beer is so much better and makes enough of a difference that they founded the brewery on that principle. They used to do a promotion called the Freshtival, where they brought beers in that were no more than a week old. This Sunday Mar. 1 they have an event to promote the end of Big Chicken this year. Colin compares its flavor to a tropical fruit bowl. That then begs the question, what do you pair it with? Something big and intense, so fried chicken. The Big Chicken fest this year closes with the Fried Chicken competition at Palace of Barrels in Petaluma, from noon to 4 PM. They will have 5 food trucks there serving to the people and a distinguished panel of judges. There will also be a separate hot sauce award. There will be a distinguished guest list and plenty of great tasting fresh beer.

Last week, we hosted a series of three webinars focused on different aspects of nonalcoholic brewing. In this episode of the podcast, we share an excerpt from the first session—focused on formulation—featuring Notch founder Chris Lohring, Halfway Crooks cofounder Shawn Cooper, and Abstrax Hops technical sales manager Craig Thomas. Through the course of the conversation, the trio discuss malt choices and process for NA beers, hop usage and different formats, dialing in bitterness, building body without sweetness, adjusting chloride content for fullness, and much more. If this piques your interest, the full webinars are available for viewing on our website: Formulation Fermentation Finishing G&D Chillers A quick word for the brewers out there staring down a broken chiller.

We're going a little more local this episode with a couple of Swedish breweries you might not have heard of before. Shapes and Objects is from Karlstad. They've been around for a couple of years and are just getting started. Sun Trip DDH Hazy IPA is a collab with Spanish brewers Malandar. Coming in at 6.2%, this IPA is filled with citra, mosiac, nelson sauvin and manalita hops. Malmö based Perfectly Squared has been expanding across the city more and more. Strawblime is a collab with Bottenvikens from Luleå in far North Sweden. This is a 4.5% ABV sour beer that's going for a strawberry daquiri experience. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #sour #ipa

Episode 23 of Matt Likes Beer features Dolly Hole, a hazy IPA collaboration between Tactical Brewing and Sideward Brewing, two of Matt's most frequently visited and personally meaningful Orlando-area breweries. Gifted to Matt by a fellow homebrew club member, the beer marks the first local brewery review of 2026, setting the stage for more hometown highlights throughout the year. Matt opens the episode by explaining his approach to note-taking, clarifying that while the show is unscripted, he keeps minimal reference notes to ensure accuracy—especially when discussing unfamiliar breweries or beer descriptions. That leads into a discussion of Tactical Brewing's intentionally minimal website descriptions, which prompted Matt to dig slightly deeper than usual, confirming that Dolly Hole was a recent rebrew rather than an older release. The beer itself is evaluated strictly under BJCP Category 21C: Hazy IPA, eliminating the ambiguity that often surrounds modern IPA substyles. Appearance-wise, Dolly Hole pours an opaque, butter-yellow color with a dense, mousse-like head, though Matt notes that the haze borders on murky, a technical fault under BJCP guidelines. Aromatically, the beer bursts with orange rind, citrus juice, and tropical fruit, supported by subtle esters and a faint herbal note. While expressive and inviting, the aroma lacks sufficient malt presence, costing it points in the judging process. Flavor-wise, the beer leans heavily into sweet, candy-like citrus, fruit punch, and lemon-lime soda character, with only a fleeting bitterness appearing late in the finish. The mouthfeel is one of the beer's strongest attributes—soft, silky, and medium-bodied, perfectly aligned with the hazy IPA style. However, excessive sweetness and minimal bitterness ultimately hold the beer back from higher marks. Matt scores Dolly Hole 32 out of 50, placing it in the “Very Good” range while emphasizing that the score reflects stylistic evaluation—not overall enjoyment. With no one-star reviews to read, the episode transitions into a detailed breakdown of the Beer Judge Certification Program (BJCP). Matt explains what the BJCP is, how judging works, and demystifies the certification process—from the notoriously difficult online entrance exam to the tasting exam and the various ranking levels. He also shares how becoming a BJCP judge has made him a better brewer and more thoughtful beer drinker. The episode closes with an invitation for listeners interested in judging or learning more to explore structured study resources, reinforcing one of the podcast's central themes: beer appreciation improves with education, curiosity, and community involvement.

Allen and RD are trying Eclipse IPA by Saint Arnold Brewing Company out of Houston Texas.7.5% ABV 55 IBUFrom Untappd: "Brewed with Eclipse hops from Australia and Citra hops from the Pacific Northwest, Eclipse IPA features tropical fruit notes of mango and pineapple with juicy stone fruit notes of peach and apricot. At 7.5% ABV, this citrusy, bright, and mildly bitter IPA is truly a sight to behold."Thanks for watching!#beer #craftbeer #saintarnoldbrewingBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/strikeout-beer--2992189/support.

Send a textA beer that smells like dessert and drinks like an espresso martini? We crack open a white chocolate espresso coffee stout from Boss Dog and it absolutely sings—silky coffee, a touch of sweetness, and an easygoing 5.5% ABV that keeps conversation loose and lively. Then we switch gears to a hazy IPA from Collision Bend that threads the needle between fruit-forward aroma and a clean grapefruit finish, landing in that sweet “all day” zone while still bringing a sturdy 6.2% punch.Between sips, we follow the sun to Houston. Picture an open-air ice house with 55 taps repeated across three stations, food trucks circling like friendly satellites, and a massive outdoor screen sharp enough to make the Super Bowl look new. The vibe is pure spring-in-Texas: a breeze through the picnic tables, big fans spinning overhead, and menus that leap from lobster to funnel-cake mashups. We swap travel snapshots, talk about how weather shapes beer culture, and confess how quickly a good tap list can turn into a long night of favorites and firsts.Back home, the conversation gets geeky in the best way. We compare ABV and IBU without the jargon, debate whether a projector beats a TV for movies and gaming, and admit that scale changes everything—from a screen that fills a wall to a stout that fills the room with coffee-chocolate aroma. The stout earns a rare “keep it stocked” from both of us; the hazy secures a solid eight and a spot in the weeknight rotation. And because craft beer runs on discovery, we're opening the door for non-local suggestions—send your under-the-radar lagers, saisons, and hazies our way and we'll put them to the test.If you love beer that tells a story—Cleveland craft pride, Houston's open-air tap scene, and the small joys that follow a great pour—you'll feel right at home.

Generally speaking, there's some correlation between brewery scale and lager quality, and while there are plenty of exceptions to every rule, there's no denying that honing lager beers into the best versions of themselves requires repetition, time, and access to the best ingredients. But over the past few years, an ever-increasing number of very small craft brewers have found success in the major competitions not despite their size, but because of it. Ferndale, Michigan's Urbanrest firmly sits in that group, and their recent gold medal in the American Pilsner category at GABF is further proof that careful process and thoughtful beer design aren't dependent on scale. The beer itself, Kaiser, started as a Franconian-inspired kellerpils, but over the years has morphed into what they now call American pils. And funny enough, it contains only Vienna-style malt from small craft maltster and none of the pils malt that most would expect. But that's not the only way they've strayed from the classic narrative. In this episode, founder and brewer Zach Typinski discusses how they: ferment German lager with a dry 34/70 strain while fermenting American pils with a liquid 34/70 blend various base malts in both lager and IPA find the perfect amount of “rusticity” in American pils manage direct-fire kettle caramelization in lieu of decoction krausen lagered beer for carbonation since the brewery doesn't own a carb stone build texture and retain foam through the krausening process source and contract great hops despite their small size And more.
