Kaya Turski grew up in Montreal and was the little rollerblader who was blowing everyone's collective minds. While Kaya went ASA Pro at 14, she was known for being a gnarly street skater. One of the best women to ever do it. But the bottom dropped out of skating, Kaya decided to give skiing a try and within a year, she was standing on her first X-Games podium in a sport that wasn't her original calling. From there, Kaya went on to dominate competition skiing.  Think 8 X Games Golds, 5 AFP Titles and so many more victories to boot. But her story is not all sunshine, the years of abuse has taken its toll on her body and mind and Kaya and I talk about all the glory but we also talk about the daily pain that is her reality. It's an interesting talk with a legend and Ashley Battersby asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Send us a textTwo beers, two moods, and one very honest split. We crack a Masthead Midwest Red IPA expecting a hint of caramel, only to be met with a grapefruit surge and a stubborn bitter finish that divides our panel. One of us gets a sharp, almost chemical edge and heavy carbonation; the other appreciates the hop punch and rides with it. If you've ever argued over an IPA at the table, you'll feel seen here, especially when we unpack how “red” sets malt expectations that “IPA” promptly bulldozes.Then we reset with a Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Toasted Stout that eases in hot and settles into something rich and balanced. Oak, vanilla, a touch of marshmallow, and that warm bourbon finish deliver the kind of slow-sipper that makes sense on a cold night. We both land at 8 and talk through why “toasted” reads smoother than some barrel-aged bruisers. It's bold at 10% ABV without turning into syrup, and it pairs perfectly with stories about winter commutes, snow berms at the end of the driveway, and the simple victory of getting home for a well-earned pour.Between tastes, we veer into real life: salt shortages near a giant lake salt mine, whiteout clippers that follow you on Route 6, and a Queen tribute in a velvet-seat theater where you can actually sit, snack, and sing. That's the bigger theme—context flavors everything. Stress can make a bitter IPA feel harsher; a warm stout can feel like a blanket. Come for the tasting notes, stay for the banter, and leave with a short list of what to buy for your next storm night.If you enjoy candid beer reviews, subscribe on YouTube, follow along on your favorite podcast app, and drop your own scores.

Fritz Family founder Cory Buenning brewed from the mid-90's through the mid 20-teens for Wyoming craft beer pioneers Snake River, but the itch to do his own thing was strong, and after returning to Colorado after a few years in Kentucky, he leased the old Bootstrap brewery in Niwot, installed a new brewhouse and cellar, and got to work making the beers he wanted to make—a variety of primarily lager beer, brewed thoughtfully and carefully. Years later, the brewery has developed a strong following among locals, but is also a favorite hangout for the area's brewers, and you'll often find brewers from neighboring breweries at the Fritz bar for a post-shift beer. It's brewers beer, after all—easy to drink, impeccably made, and unassuming. In this episode, Buenning shares his approach to making refined lagers at a taproom scale, and along the way discusses: how cold knockouts, cold fermentation, and no diacetyl rest make better lagers brewing with an jacketed oil-heated brewhouse rather than steam-heated acidifying the mash using sauergut building body in clear beer through proteins not carbohydrates carbonating naturally via capped tank using forced fermentation tests on all lagers managing gelatinization issues with European malt through modified step mashing ingredient approaches to Pilsner, helles, and Kölsch understanding yeast timing and performance to dial in harvesting and rep itching managing head pressure with 34/70 to reduce sulfur And more.

Episode 20 of Matt Likes Beer finds Matt deep into Dry January 2026, reflecting on health goals, pre-recorded episodes, and the realities of balancing beer enthusiasm with personal wellness. The beer in the spotlight is Dollar Slice, a hazy IPA from Other Half Brewing in Brooklyn, New York—chosen initially for its pizza-inspired label and unexpected name. Matt shares his prior experience with Other Half, noting that while he's enjoyed their IPAs before, this particular beer was a classic case of label buying—a marketing reality many craft beer fans know well. A deeper look into the brewery's catalog reveals a diverse lineup beyond IPAs, including lagers, sours, and spontaneous fermentation beers, even though hop-forward styles clearly dominate their production. During the tasting, Matt addresses an important judging dilemma: while the can simply says “India Pale Ale,” further research—and the beer's unmistakable appearance—confirm it should be evaluated as a 21C Hazy IPA. Using BJCP guidelines, he breaks down the beer's opaque yellow appearance, exceptional head retention, intense citrus and tropical fruit aroma, and luxuriously soft, creamy mouthfeel. Flavor-wise, Dollar Slice delivers vibrant orange zest, pineapple, and juice-forward hop character from Citra and Galaxy hops, earning high marks across the board. A slight lingering off-flavor prevents a near-perfect score, but the beer still lands at an impressive 41 out of 50, firmly in the Excellent range. Matt emphasizes that without this minor issue—possibly isolated to the can or palate—this could easily have been a mid-40s standout. With no one-star reviews to read, the episode closes on a thoughtful soapbox moment about Untappd, consumer-driven beer trends, and the disconnect that can occur when breweries resist making the styles people actually want to drink. Matt balances critique with humility, acknowledging the complexity of running a brewery while reaffirming his belief that variety, responsiveness, and drinker feedback matter.

The eisbock story is a fun lore of beer myth, a hapless brewery employee left a barrel of doppelbock outside during a snowstorm in Germany and some of the beer froze, concentrating flavor and thus creating a whole new beer style. While the roots of this story may not wholly be true, it's a fun addition to a beer style made by distillation processes at its most base level.These beers are rare in the United States as you need special licenses to make them but in Europe, the rules are a bit different and in some European countries, these beers, not just eisbocks, have taken on a life of their own. And this is before we start talking about other drinks like the amazing ice cider made by freeze distillation.How does the freezing process work and what changes does it make to these drinks? This month on the All About Beer podcast, we talk to three guests with unique views on this chilly process. 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:HopsteinerThis episode is brought to you by LLZ™ - Hopsteiner's new water-soluble citrus aroma extract.

Send us a textHit play for a wild mix of fresh YouTube energy, honest beer reviews, and storm-smart survival tips that could actually help when the power blinks. We went from cables and camera confusion to pouring two unforgettable beers: Nugget Nectar, a red-ale crossover that drinks like a friendly IPA, and Death's Tar, a bourbon-barrel bruiser that smacks with baker's chocolate and heat. One earns a rare perfect score on camera. The other? Let's just say if you love big oak and bigger bite, you'll have opinions.We keep it human and a little chaotic—road-trip “workation” stories, the kind of bar stops you only make when someone else is driving, and the humble reality of building a channel while the mics are live. Music heads will appreciate our detour into the Beastie Boys doc and a Puffy profile that raises questions about image, narrative control, and what happens when the camera never turns off. It's the pop-culture breather between tastings, and it sparks a sharp back-and-forth on what ages well, both in beer and in reputation.Then we get practical. With a winter system icing its way across multiple states, we trade no-nonsense pointers: water storage, safe heat, CO detectors, food you can stash outside, and a little terracotta trick for warming a small room if things get rough. Nothing preachy—just the kind of advice you'd text a friend before the roads glaze over. We wrap by weighing cost versus flavor on high-ABV stouts, doubling down on that Nugget Nectar recommendation, and celebrating a clutch golf league night because small wins matter.If you're into craft beer, bourbon-barrel stouts, music documentaries, or simply want real talk about storm prep without fear-mongering, this one's for you. Tap follow, rate the show, and share it with a friend who needs a better winter beer plan. And if you're feeling generous, subscribe to the new YouTube—watch along and tell us what to taste next.Support the showwww.anotherreasontodrink.com

Inclusive education doesn't happen by accident—it takes intentional systems, shared mindsets, and sustained collaboration. In this episode of The Good Life EDU Podcast, host Andrew Easton is joined by Allison Kelberlau (Assistant Director of Student Services, ESU 3), Eileen Heller (Education Consultant, Professional Learning, ESU 3), and Jill Guenther (Nebraska MTSS Regional Support Lead, Region 2) to unpack the story and impact of ESU 3's Inclusive Practices Academy (IPA). The conversation traces the origins of the IPA from statewide coherence efforts led by the Nebraska Department of Education's Office of Special Education, through its design and implementation, and into what the work looks like now in year two. Together, the group explores how mindset, systems and structures, and instructional practices intersect to support meaningful inclusion for students with disabilities—and how ESUs can model the very collaboration they hope to see in schools. Listeners will hear how the academy brings general education teachers, special educators, related service providers, and building leaders together around: Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a foundational framework Co-planning and co-teaching as levers for inclusive practice Data-informed decision-making tied directly to classroom instruction Action planning that bridges professional learning and daily practice The critical role of building leadership in sustaining inclusive systems The episode also highlights what the ESU 3 team learned themselves through cross-department collaboration—and why inclusive professional learning must be designed with the same care and flexibility we expect in classrooms. Whether you work in a service agency, district leadership role, or classroom, this conversation offers both inspiration and practical entry points for advancing inclusive education—starting wherever you are.

For Jaron Anderson of Helper Beer, listening to the beer itself, rather than following prescribed rules, is the only way to improve it. He's well-versed in the theory, but not a slavish adherent to dogma—what matters is the beer itself, and how it tastes, so any technique or ingredient that gets you there is worth considering. In 2025, he won GABF gold in the competitive German-style pils category, yet his pils was produced in a way that some would fine unconventional—single infusion mash, lack of mid- and late-kettle hops, two hour boil, heavy cool-pool hop charge—but for Anderson, it's not good enough to make a good beer using safe techniques. The goal is to make great beer, using every tool at his disposal. In this episode, Anderson discusses: stripping adjuncts out of light lager to reduce perception of acetaldehyde long 2+ hour boils to drive off DMS making characterful helles and pils without decoction using local water with high hardness to give structure to malt building character in lager with domestic and European malt hop use and selection in German-style pils the quirks of brewing with the Andechs strain And more.

Omnipollo continues their ongoing series where they take a bunch of different breweries and come up with a beer. Then each brewery brews their version of that beer. It's a fun way to see how you can take the same beer and it's slightly interepreted by differently. It makes brewing feel more like jazz. Three Times Three Vol 7 is an 8% DIPA with yummy tropical notes. Spanish brewer Soma has been making some great IPA's recently. Mantra is a 6% IPA made with krush, citra and kohatu hops. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #dipa #ipa

Episode 19 of Matt Likes Beer features a seasonal-yet-technical deep dive into Fragile, an Italian-style Pilsner from Heist Brewery in Charlotte, North Carolina. Named after the iconic “Fra-gee-lay” moment from A Christmas Story, this 4.5% lager uses Saphir hops and dry hopping to create a crisp, modern take on a growing craft beer substyle. Matt explores his history with Heist Brewery through Tavour, noting that while he's enjoyed their beers before, this is his first experience with Fragile—and his first Italian Pilsner reviewed on the podcast. He also takes time to highlight Heist's wide-ranging tap list, touching on the brewery's diverse approach beyond the IPA-heavy norm. Because Italian Pilsner isn't a standalone BJCP category, Matt walks listeners through how to properly judge it using BJCP's suggested entry guidelines, evaluating the beer as a 34B Mixed-Style Beer with a German Pilsner base plus dry hopping. The review covers clarity, head retention, hop expression, bitterness levels, mouthfeel, and balance—along with a candid critique of BJCP's notoriously difficult website navigation. Fragile earns a 36 out of 50 (Very Good), matching the previous episode's score but illustrating an important distinction: judging to style versus drinking for enjoyment. While Matt finds the beer slightly restrained for a dry-hopped pilsner in competition terms, he makes it clear this is a beer he would happily order multiple times in a real-world setting—especially as a meal-friendly, refreshing lager with depth. With no beer reviews to roast, the episode closes with a festive twist: Matt reads brutal one-star reviews of A Christmas Story, turning the beer's name into an excuse for some unexpectedly dark and hilarious holiday commentary.

SF Beer Week 2026 Sayre Pietrowski is back on Brew Ha Ha with Herlinda Heras and Daedalus Howell, to introduce SF Beer Week, coming soon this February 20 through March 1, 2026. Sayre was on the show last August when he had recently been named Executive Director of the Bay Area Brewers Guild. This is Sayre's first time for SF Beer Week as the Executive Director. He explains that the guild was born from an alliance of local beer organizations that got together and promoted a beer festival. Then they learned that other cities had beer weeks. So they decided to bring it to San Francisco, with the support of great brewers like Pliny the Younger and Anchor Brewing. In 2008 or 09 the whole guild was a small enough number to fit on one evening's menu. Visit our sponsor Pizzaleah in Windsor for the finest pizza menu and the most authentic flavors around!

While it's easy to find a hops-forward IPA or a crisp lager that fools even the best beer connoisseur… de-alcoholized wines leave something to be desired. They are often too bitter, too sweet, or too watery, tasting more like something you would serve at a kids' party than an adult beverage. So we speak with Wes Pearson, a senior research scientist and sensory group manager at the Australian Wine Research Institute about why that is, and how we can change that.

Welcome back to BierTalk — this time we're heading to Sonoma County, California, to talk with Vinnie Cilurzo, co-owner of Russian River Brewing Company. We dive into what makes Russian River beers so famously crisp and consistent: an uncompromising focus on freshness — cold chain, low oxygen, tight distribution, and quality control all the way to the shelf. Vinnie also opens the brewhouse door and shares the thinking behind his hopping approach, recipe evolution (yes, even Pliny the Elder), and why staying relevant means never stopping the work. And because it's Russian River, we also touch wild beer, the story of the “Vinnie Nail,” the fonio collaboration with Garrett Oliver, and their latest sustainability step: CO₂ recovery. Grab a beer — and enjoy the conversation...

De Dochter van de Korenaar (https://www.dedochtervandekorenaar.be) is unusual even for Belgium—a country full of brewers who don't particularly enjoy being hemmed in by style definitions. Founder Ronald Mengerink has a passion for aging beer in barrels, but the expressions take a more vinous, wine-like approach than those more commonly found in North America. And his riff on port-like beer, Tout va Bien, is one that can't be made commercially in many places due to the process—inspired by fortified wine, arresting fermentation with an addition of grain spirits. English-style barleywine, Portugese process, French name, Dutch brewer, Belgian beer—it's an idiosyncratic but fascinating approach to beer making. In this episode, Mengerink discusses: barrel-aging everything from 3 percent ABV pale beer to port-like fortified barleywine building a brewhouse with an intentionally wide and shallow lauter tun and kettle drawing inspiration from American beers such as Bell's Two Hearted finding balance despite big malt bills, high ABVs, and bold flavors achieving proper viscosity through extended aging conscious cellar design for intentional barrel-aging sourcing barrels from winemakers, and the differences between American and French oak how tannins reduce dissolved oxygen in barrel-aged beers And more.

Mike and Dave have a Short's Brewing Company variety IPA pack. We had a 20, yes 20, flight at Short's this summer and it didn't include the three IPAs we had tonight. Spoiler, they all rate very high. This was the most interactive live stream we've had with our fan base. SO MUCH fun as well as informal/educational at the same time !!

A couch, a non-alcoholic hazy IPA, and a confession: leaving the monastery wasn't just about tacos and rules—it was about hugging family again and answering a call to serve a world on edge. What followed is a surprising arc from Spirit Rock to healthcare to a teacher training program that's now helping seed mindfulness across the Environmental Protection Agency and beyond.We walk through the real reasons mindfulness belongs inside complex institutions: not as a perk, but as a skills-based response to stress, climate anxiety, and high-stakes decision-making. You'll hear how EPA leaders enrolled in our certification, why they're inviting more colleagues, and what a mindful federal initiative could look like across agencies like the Forest Service, Housing, and even the military. The science is clear—reduced stress and anxiety, better communication, stronger resilience—and the stories show how a short practice can change a meeting, a policy conversation, or a homecoming after work.This is a grounded look at scaling compassion without losing integrity. We talk about attention as a shared resource, how training trainers multiplies impact, and why adopting mindfulness at work naturally shifts habits at home: how we speak, what we buy and eat, and how we show up for people we love. If you care about mental health, leadership, and a more humane approach to public service, you'll find both practical tools and a dose of hope.If this resonates, subscribe, share the episode with someone who needs it, and leave a review with one way you'll plant a mindful seed this week.

Rob Shwenker, Russian River Keepers Natalie Cilurzo from Russian River Brewing Co. and Rob Shwenker from Russian River Keeper join Herlinda Heras and Daedalus Howell on Brew Ha Ha. This is Rob's first time on the show. Natalie has been on many times before, the last time was this episode last January for the preview of Pliny the Younger. They are here to present a new beer called 110 West Coast Pils, which refers to the number of miles that the Russian River Runs, from Ukiah down to Jenner. Vinny Cilurzo made it for the first time last year, and came up with the name of this beer. Natalie felt the need to do something positive for the river. She worked with with Russian River Keepers several years ago. Then she and Vinny were invited to the annual Russian River Keeper gala where she met Rob. Their idea was to distribute their new West Coast Pils with a portion of the proceeds going to Russian River Keeper. This arrangement is for perpetuity for as long as they make 110. “It's not a promotion, it's a commitment,” says Daedalus. 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 hours, menus, beers and more. Russian River Keeper Rob describes the purpose of Russian River Keeper as protection of a healthy Russian River habitat. “Our mission is a healthy, fishable, swimmable equitably shared Russian River. (…) We pull about 500,000 pounds of trash out of the watershed every year.” They work to prevent trash from entering the river because ultimately that leads to the marine environment. They also do restoration, fighting to preserve animal and plant species. One example is the giant bamboo that they are removing. It is a massive user of water and hard to remove. Russian River Keeper is also an advocate for the river at all applicable levels of government. Some of Rob’s job involves lobbying in Sacramento for favorable environmental legislation. They are members of the California Coast Keeper Alliance. Worldwide there are about 300 different water keepers.

We had to take a break after last weeks high ABV bonanza. We needed to take things down a few notches. We're doing Dry January...for this episode at least. We've got the non-alcoholic beers from Omnipollo, Mikkeller and Sierra Nevada. The world of non-alcoholic beers has really changed. Gone are the days of lame flavorless pilsners and lagers. Breweries are really upping their game going for it. We got stouts, sours and IPAs. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #dryjanuary #stout #sourbeer #ipa #non-alcoholic

We're not quite in the dead of winter, but it feels like it – at least from the home office – so I wanted to think about warmer weather, growth, life, and green. So I'm excited to have Darren Gamache of Virgil Gamache Farms in Washington's Yakima Valley here on the show. We talk about 2025 hops, what 2026 might bring, and the farm's hop water – which could be a good fit for your drinking even if you're not doing Dry January.

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. John Boyd is well known to have formally written down very little of his own theories on war and conflict, making researching his concepts challenging and leading many to infer meanings based on their own interpretations—or others'—of what little easily accessible evidence of his thinking remains. In Snowmobiles and Grand Ideals, Ian Brown unpacks Boyd in his own words delivered during his lectures.

Angel Collinson kicks off season 10 of the podcast and it's a good one. When Angel was last on the show, she was coming off a "Line of the Year" season and was on the top of the ski world. What I, and a lot of people didn't realize, was that Angel wasn't as passionate about skiing as the world thought she was. Eventually burnout got the best of her and Angel shocked the ski world when she retired in her prime and sailed off into the sunset. We talk about it all and her brother, another incredible athlete and human, John Collinson, asks the Inappropriate Questions.  Angel Collinson Show Notes: 4:00: Impressions, where we left off last, blown knee, skiing was her track to everything, burnout, college, big mountain comps, fear, 21:00: Ski Idaho: With 19 mountains, a ton of snow and no lift lines, why wouldn't you Visit Idaho   Best Day Brewing:  All of the flavor of your favorite IPA or Kolsch, without the alcohol, the calories or sugar. 24:00: Pressure, loss, energy healing, grief, AK with Seth, Sage, and Dana, production of skiing, having an epiphany about skiing, and money 41:30: Elan Skis:  Over 75 years of innovation that makes you better.   Outdoor Research: The best outerwear on the planet is designed and developed in the brutal elements of the Pacific Northwest 43:00: The business of being pro, retiring, buying a sailboat, living in the water, pirates, and an epiphany at Burning Man 68:00: Inappropriate Questions with John Collinson

Episode 152 of the Taproom Podcast features host Mike and special guest Russ Klisch, founder and owner of Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee. Russ shares the brewery's origin story — from homebrewing and 55-gallon drum setups to buying a Cream City brick building — and walks through innovations like becoming an early certified organic brewery, creating a gluten-free beer that helped change federal policy, and a 20-year IPA. Listeners will also hear about the brewery's culture and community focus: the long-running My Turn employee beer series, the chalet from County Stadium, iconic cheese curds, notable collaborations (including Hofbräu), Milwaukee's lager heritage versus IPA trends, tour highlights, and Russ's reflections on awards, camaraderie, and why he's still a workaholic for beer.

Gert Christiaens loved the beers of Oud Beersel so much that he couldn't abide the brewery closing in 2003. So, he bought the brewery, learned to brew, and for the past 20 years has focused on preserving the legacy of traditional oude gueuze and kriek. But that mission to preserve doesn't mean sealing beers in a time capsule. Instead, it involves finding new ways to make these classic styles relevant to drinkers wherever they may be—from the Senne Valley to South America. In this episode, Christiaens discusses: learning how to produce beer in order to continue the lambic and gueuze tradition the challeges of producing oude kriek with Schaerbeekse cherries the four main phases of lambic fermentation micro-oxygenation through wood-aging the impact of wood and barrel types on culture centering blends with refined components incorporating interesting and localized ingredients such as Chilean peppers and Japanese bamboo leaf as bridges between cultures protecting the definition of oude gueuze and oude kriek And more.

Sid Pattison is a heli ski guide,  an Everest veteran, and an all around badass,  but what makes Sid different is who he is. Sid has the rare combination of a magnetic personality that lights up any situation, along with the ability to connect with every person he comes across, from the janitor to the CEO. These unique human skills, combined with his beast-like ability in the field, has created a fast lane in life that's allowed Sid to leapfrog past more accomplished peers. He's skipped some traditional steps on his way to things like guiding Everest, to his upcoming buy into North Cascade Heli Ski, but he doesn't cut corners.  While nothing that Sid does is traditional, it's always memorable and it eventually works out.
