Podcasts about Ipas

After 335 episodes in the dark, the curtain is officially lifted. Welcome to the first-ever video broadcast of I Like Beer (now officially rebranding to "ILB"). To mark this milestone, we've orchestrated the "Ultimate Collaboration" with the San Diego Brewers Guild's official podcast, Capital of Craft. Joining hosts Jeff and Jeff is a third Jeff: Jeff Fox—a man who defines the San Diego scene through his roles as a Vista City Council member (District 2), founder of StarFox Media, and lead strategist at Beer Media Co.   This episode explores the intersection of consumer fandom and industry authority. Jeff Fox recounts his evolution from a macro-drinker who found IPAs to be a "bitter acquired taste" to a true industry appreciator. The turning point? A "yeast-driven epiphany" at White Labs, where he experienced a single beer recipe fermented with four different yeast strains—a moment that revealed the true artistry and craftsmanship behind the pour.   We also dive into the "lore" of ILB. Before the microphones, there were the "Beer-cations." We share the story of our legendary Spring Break van trip to Russian River and Sierra Nevada, a journey that saw us hit 17 breweries before a last-minute text about the grand opening of Burgeon Beer Co. in Carlsbad pushed the tally to a perfect 20. This is the story of how three Jeffs are moving the conversation from a "front row seat" for fans to a "backstage pass" for the entire industry.   Watch the premier at 5:00pm tonight (February 2nd, 2026) HERE!  

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.

Wendy and Rob catch up in the new year and make some predictions for 2026. Predictions were about apples, the trend with IPAs, big releases, effects of consolidation, average ABV on shelves, and packaging formats.We also talk about non-alcoholic versions of styles and what that means when you get into things like beer judging, Untappd, or as a consumer looking to purchase a beer.Is Rob alone in having craft beer singles become rare to find around him?What are some breweries you think could be legacy breweries and how are they changing with the times?

It is without a doubt the Grand Poobah for out of market IPAs, Russian Rivers Pliny the Elder is like a mark of honor at San Diego watering holes. Due to their strict policies on how their beer should be handeld, you'll only find it on tap in places that have high standards of excellence in their beers and O'Brien's is one of those spots! In fact outside of their Tion weekend its one of the few spots in town where you can almost all the time find it on tap.

Episode 2 - Jack and Rob discuss the nuances of religious holidays in Germany. Jack gets a new pair of sunglasses before a deep dive into the wild world of wine. Why is there stigma to drinking wine in a punk bar? Is the twisty-mustached plaid-shirt clad barkeep strong arming you into IPAs? What is a Treppenwitz and a Viereck?     

Compared to the pace at which Hop Butcher releases IPAs, their barrel-aged offerings might as well be Halley's Comet. But when they do release a big beer aged in barrels, it's absolutely worth tracking down, just like the four beers on this episode. We continue our Barrel-Aged Winter with these Hop Butcher for the World beers that saw limited release from their taproom over the last year or so and try not to get yelled at by bourbon Facebook groups in the process. Also, we consider walking a mile in condiment shoes; Craig somehow still has faith in ice cream beers; and Ryan's on the lookout for a Beefy Boy. Beers Reviewed Lincoln Anniversary Stout II (Applewood Rye & Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout) Lost In The Tropics (Rum, Banana Mead, & Bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout w/ toasted coconut, Madagascar vanilla and pineapple soft serve) Resplendence (Barleywine aged in Old Rip Van Winkle bourbon barrels) Lincoln Anniversary Stout III (Double Barrel bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout)  

Jason and Stephen crack open a new year by revisiting their favorite beers of 2025, how their tastes have changed, and the standouts that kept them coming back for more. Of course there were plenty of barrel-aged stouts and hazy IPAs, but there are also a few fun surprises. It's a fun, flavorful look back at a great year in beer.Beer Tastings:Jason - Bourbon County Brand Stout Angel's Envy 2-Year Cask 2023, Goose Island Brewing, Chicago, IL. Style: BBA StoutStephen-Collective Choice 2025, Firestone Walker Brewing, Paso Robles, CA. Style: BBA Stout with Cocoa Nibs, Coconut, and Coffee.

In this Best Beers of 2025 episode, Jason and Bri break out the imaginary red carpet and count down the most memorable beers they drank all year — Golden Globes style, but with fuzzy socks and Buffalo wind chills.From sipping a Yuzu Mango Golden Ale aboard a Norwegian cruise ship during a Bills playoff game, to discovering dessert-in-a-glass triple IPAs, cocktail-inspired sours, tropical island lagers, and a peanut butter stout that never misses, the duo revisits the beers that truly stood out in 2025. Along the way, they share travel stories from the Cayman Islands, brewery hopping across New York State, Collaboration Fest highlights, and one bittersweet honorable mention from a beloved brewery that closed its doors.Featured breweries include Terrapin / 66 by Norwegian, Eli Fish Brewing, Cayman Islands Brewery, Frequentum Brewing, Scale House Brewery, Monster Beach Brewing, and Arkane Aleworks — each with a story, a setting, and a beer that earned its place on the list.It's a mix of laughs, memories, and genuinely great beer talk — proving that sometimes the best beers aren't just about flavor, but where you were, who you were with, and the stories that came with the pour.

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 !!

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

In this episode of Monday Night Live with Clay Edwards, dive into a raw, unfiltered discussion on the latest headlines and cultural hot buttons. Kicking off with breaking news from Jackson, Mississippi—named the deadliest city in America per capita for the fifth straight year despite a drop in homicides—Clay breaks down the stats, comparing rates to cities like Memphis, St. Louis, Birmingham, and Louisville. He explores why crime trends are falling nationally but not fast enough in certain areas, tying it to broader issues like urban decay, political leadership, and the impact on local life, including declining sports attendance in high-crime zones like St. Louis.   The conversation expands nationally: Tim Walz's decision not to seek reelection amid corruption allegations, a bizarre incident at JD Vance's home involving a transgender suspect, and the dramatic arrest of Venezuelan leader Maduro, with Clay calling out political hypocrisy from figures like Chuck Schumer and praising bipartisan wins against tyranny.   Sprinkled throughout are candid takes on racial dynamics, viral videos of street altercations, and societal "fatigue" with activist politics. Listener comments steer the chat toward lighter fare, like favorite beers (from Shock Top to craft IPAs) and local Mississippi brews.   Tune in for Clay's no-holds-barred commentary, show prep insights, and a mix of serious analysis with off-the-cuff humor. Whether you're tracking crime stats, politics, or just enjoying the rabbit holes, this episode delivers. Subscribe for nightly livestreams and catch the vibe—peace!

Mike and Dave have three tastings from Alaskan Brewing Co. A pale ale and two IPAs. Tune into the first segment to find out what shows and music you should be watching and listening to. The guys have a great 2nd segment with commentary on the college and NFL football playoff situations, with related 3rd segment topics (........except the donating sperm topic.)

Host Mike sits down with Quinn Reeder of Boulevard Brewing in Kansas City for a deep, behind-the-scenes conversation. They tour Boulevard's massive facility, taste new and classic beers (including the Space Camper IPA and taproom exclusives), and discuss Boulevard's Belgian roots, modern IPAs, lagers, seltzers and taproom culture. Quinn tells his personal story from pharmacy school to homebrewing and pro brewing, explains how he rose into Boulevard's barrel program, and shares memorable brew-day moments, collaborations (Meanwhile Brewing, Tech N9ne and an Old Harbor collab in Puerto Rico) and how the barrel program grew dramatically during COVID. The episode also highlights Kansas City's collaborative beer scene, brewery tours and taproom experiences, beer-naming and marketing stories, and practical notes on brewing balance, tasting and craft beer culture. Mike closes with holiday notes and quick college football playoff picks.

Send us a textSleigh bells are packed away, but the glasses are out, starting with Kringle Juice from Big Ditch Brewing—a hazy IPA that looks like Christmas and drinks like clean citrus and pine. We dig into the aroma, that first juicy hit, the subtle dryness as it warms, and why it stacks next to Elvis Juice without feeling like a clone. At 7% ABV and easygoing bitterness, it's a quiet holiday hero for anyone who wants a festive can and a year-round flavor.The chat opens up from there. We trade stories about how family traditions shift once the grandparents stop hosting—why some branches drift into smaller circles and how one person stepping up can bring the tribe back together. It's a candid, funny, and honest look at gathering without the pressure of a calendar date, where the real win is people in a room, not perfection on the table. Along the way we toss in gaming chaos: accidental alliances, surprise ambushes, and the social weirdness of PvP that still keeps us logging on. It's community, whether you find it around a tree, a couch, or a loading screen.Then we pour dessert: Hardywood's Peppermint Bark Stout. Chocolate-forward, softly minty, and lighter than most pastry stouts at 9.2% ABV, it slides between milk and dark chocolate notes with a finish that feels like a winter nightcap. We talk pairings, why it works after dinner, and where it lands on our keeper scale. Add a few white elephant gems, a ham-sandwich confession, and a shout-out to a hot honey pepperoni pizza that stole the show, and you've got a cozy, laughter-heavy holiday wrap.If you're into craft beer reviews, seasonal stouts, hazy IPAs, and real talk about family and traditions, you'll feel right at home.

It’s been another fantastic year for Windsor’s Two Flints… Following on from the recent release of their celebrated collab Double IPA with Ghost Whale’s Ray Hadnett, the brewery has also worked with NZ Hops on their Bract Project initiative. Not only that, they’ve released one of the year’s best dark beers in Heartwood – the barrel aged evolution of their debut Imperial Stout ‘Into the Night’. So with that in mind, we’re revisiting our conversation with founder Alex Kerr from earlier this year. In this episode we speak with Alex to learn about his early influences and how he found a passion for brewing while living in Singapore. We discuss his fascination with hops and the qualities they impart on the beers they brew, the importance of Two Flints' taproom and also reflect on his desire for continuous improvement in everything that they do. “It takes two flints to make a fire” Where did the inspiration for your brewery name come from? For Alex Kerr, founder of Windsor, Berkshire-based Two Flints, he has his own story to tell. And drawing influence from the famous quote from Louisa May Alcott's coming-of-age novel Little Women was just the place to start. Opening at the end of 2022, Two Flints recently has marked its second anniversary brewing in Berkshire.  A town that has been the home of Windsor and Eton Brewery for more than 10 years, Alex Kerr and his team have given beer fans another new spot for excellent beer. And soon after in 2023, they would soon be joined in Windsor by neighbours Indie Rabble, the brewery founded by Naomi and Dave Hayward. Since starting out, Two Flints has made its name with a series of excellent hop-forward, hazy pale ales and IPAs such as Santiago, Never End and Big Bash. But they also make superb lagers and other styles, too.

Season 4, Episode 32This week on With Bowl and Spoon, Shelly talks with Marcus Wyatt of Windy Bridges Brew about how a love of beer, community, and learning led him to start brewing his own. Marcus shares how growing up in Chicago and now calling Pittsburgh home inspired the name Windy Bridges, bringing together the Windy City and the City of Bridges. His brewing story began at an after-work happy hour where he was introduced to IPAs, followed by meeting a coworker who brewed mead, which sparked Marcus's curiosity. His first homebrew was an imperial IPA that “wasn't great, but it wasn't bad either” which was enough to keep him brewing.Marcus talks about learning the craft through a homebrew kit, working and learning at Inner Groove Brewing, connecting with Day Bracey and the Barrel & Flow community, taking part in Point Park's brewing program, and earning his Level 1 Cicerone certification. Now, he's putting all of that learning into practice in his two-car garage brewery, supported and encouraged by other brewers along the way and backed fully by his family, including his daughter running social media.Food and culture are central to Marcus's brewing vision, with soul food influences like banana pudding, and sweet potato shaping the flavors he's excited to explore. You won't find Windy Bridges Brew out in the wild just yet, but batches are brewing, tastings are happening, and conversations are underway about getting beer on tap and in cans. Follow @windybridgesbrew on socials, and keep an ear out... there are whispers of exciting things ahead.Photo credit for this episode: Lucy Schaly

Advent Day 12 is another strong beer. We're a little weary of quadruple IPAs. They usually overly sweet to mask the high alcohol flavor. Dutch brewers White Dog created Resting at the Bottom of the Ocean in collaboration with Brazilian Cervejaria Escafandrista. This 12% ABV bad boy goes down a little too smooth.  #beer #craftbeer #drinks #advent2025 #ipa #quadipa

Learn how Black Lung brews a pistachio-rose white stout and lactose-free maltshake IPAs — inside a taproom they say is haunted.Black Lung Brewing Company's president and brewer Josh Grubbs joins Brian and Cody at Black Lung's brand-new Grayslake brewhouse to talk about moving an entire brewery, brewing baklava-inspired white stouts with real rose petals, and why his “maltshake IPAs” give milkshake fans all the body with none of the lactose. He shares how his grandfather's near-death experience in a Kentucky coal mine inspired both the brewery's name and its family-first philosophy, how an early alternating-proprietorship deal at ZümBier helped him go pro, and how he balances core taproom favorites without sacrificing the creative flexibility that keeps brewing fun. Josh also shares the full story behind Black Lung's haunted brewery truck “Sylvie,” how Pistachio Rose evolved into a Valentine's Day ritual beer, and why Josh is so committed to inventing lactose-free “maltshake IPAs” using maltodextrin, monk fruit, and high mash temperatures instead of ingredients he personally can't drink. He also discusses Hopservation, Black Lung's experimental hazy IPA series that later helped spawn beers like Galaxy 503, Intergalactic Space Juice, and Trampled by Sliders, and breaks down how he trials new hops like Nectaron on a full 5-barrel system without a pilot brewhouse. Plus: how Lung Light stays on tap with contract-brewed batches while he saves tank space for coffee stouts, Kentucky Common, Kolsch, and other small-batch seasonals.About Black Lung Brewing Company: Black Lung Brewing Company operates a cozy brewery taproom in Round Lake Beach, a waterfront brewpub with craft burgers in Fox Lake, and a new full-scale brewery, kitchen, and taproom in downtown Grayslake, Illinois. Their lineup ranges from light lagers and ambers to pistachio cream ales, baklava-inspired white stouts like Pistachio Rose, maltshake IPAs, and experimental hazy IPAs in their Hopservation series.

It's a tale of two Frankensteins! After years of dreaming, Guillermo del Toro has finally unleashed his version of Frankenstein — deeply human, and visually stunning. Then we dig into Andy Warhol's Frankenstein, a depraved, gleefully grotesque art experiment that feels like it was stitched together in a neon nightmare. Same story, two wildly different visions of creation and chaos. And, fittingly, we've got two very different IPAs to go with them — Lagunitas' Beast of Both Worlds, a bold hybrid with bite, and Fast Friends Brewing's Matamata New Zealand Hazy IPA, a smooth newcomer full of unexpected character. Two Frankensteins, two beers, and one electrified conversation about what it means to make a monster. #BeerAndAMovie #Frankenstein #DelToro #Warhol #FilmPodcast #CraftBeer #Cinema #Horror

You never know where the conversation is going to go when Ryan McGee joins the guys and today was no different! From Dale Murphy to fan bases getting angry by his Bottom 10 to bad IPAs, and much more, buckle up and enjoy! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Learn how Tighthead is bringing cask-ale pub culture to Illinois and how they make IPAs that changed Cody's entire perspective on beer. Plus: hear a traditional rugby song!Tighthead Brewing Company Owner/Brewer Bruce Dir and Brewmaster Billy Oaks share the fascinating story behind their Mundelein, Illinois brewery, from rugby roots and homebrewing origins to crafting balanced, award-winning beers. They discuss everything from scaling up recipes and mastering pub culture to developing new hemp-infused beverages.They share their humble beginnings from the Lake County homebrew club, learning the ropes of judging beer competitions, and why Irish Red Ales deserve more love. Plus: the messy first batch of Scarlet Fire Irish Red, opening-day chaos, and the now-legendary story of Metra trains waiting so commuters could grab a growler.After the break, they dive into Boxcar Porter and the fine line between porter and stout, explore balance in recipe design, and detail how their collaboration with Chicago Bears legend Patrick Mannelly led to the Long Snapper IPA, a “crushable” West Coast style brewed with Cascade and Centennial hops. They also taste Irie IPA, a 7.8% “hop candy” of 100+ IBUs that challenges IPA skeptics, and introduce listeners to pub culture and cask conditioning, explaining how natural carbonation creates creamy texture and warmth in a hand-pulled pint.

Welcome back to The DC Beer Show! This episode brings some extra sparkle as our hosts sit down with special guest Dave Infante, the freshly crowned 2025 North American Guild of Beer Writers best business writing category winner.Our hosts ditch their usual "What's in your glass?" opener in favor of a midday roundup of recent brews, like Dave Infante's nonalcoholic Hoplark hop water (scored from a rare local drop), and Brandy Holder's cute little Sierra Nevada craft lager—plus plenty of shoutouts to delicious pale ales and lagers from spots like Right Proper, Eebee's, and Lost Generation, setting the stage for their much-anticipated beer share at Denizens.But the true heart of the episode is a deep dive into beer journalism, cultural critique, and some righteous ranting about The New York Times' recent craft beer op-ed. Dave Infante deconstructs the misunderstood perceptions that plague craft beer coverage, especially the tired narrative that wacky labels and IPA dominance are "killing" the scene. Instead, he brings the receipts: IPAs remain 50% of the market, breweries are constantly reinventing lagers, and American beer is arguably better than ever. The conversation is equal parts spicy and insightful, with hosts and guest alike poking fun at bygone trends (remember palate-wrecking IPAs?) and celebrating the wild diversity pouring from local taps these days.There's a strong sense of camaraderie throughout, as the group chats about women-owned breweries like Denizens and Right Proper, upcoming events for beer lovers (including the Women's Brew Culture Club), and the joys of unstructured beer shares where community and conversation rule.As the episode wraps, Dave Infante shares where to keep up with his writing on Fingers and VinePair—and both DC Beer and Dave encourage you to support good beer, honest journalism, and local community wherever you find it.Grab a cold one, celebrate the golden age of American beer, and join us for another rollicking session of The DC Beer Show—where facts, flavors, and fun go hand-in-hand!

It's a fad in the same way the hazy IPAs were once a fad! Today Scones and BC brought their take on a Pickle Beer, light bodied, slightly dilly with a little salinity and a WHOLE bunch of garlic. This beer is one that you'll either never touch after first sip or obsess over to the point of contemplaing your next tattoo.

The U.S. government used to be the largest donor in family planning assistance at $400 million a year. There has been an explicit loss of U.S. leadership and resources in contemporary global health and foreign aid, with significant, negative impacts on supply and health outcomes. Anu Kumar, President and CEO at Ipas, sits down to talk with us about the current status of U.S. foreign assistance and how we can reimagine it for the better.The U.S. government has not been supporting abortion care for 50 years since the Helms Amendment was passed in 1973, and contraception has been facing increasing attacks. The campaign of incorrectly and harmfully equating contraceptives with abortifacients is coming to a head. In addition, there is $9.7 billion dollars' worth of contraception impacted by Trump's foreign aid freeze, which are now sitting in a Belgian warehouse. But we can imagine a more comprehensive, better performing foreign assistance: a reduced transactional quality and the ability for recipient countries to form their own assistance delivery.For more information, check out Pantsuit Politics: https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/s/podcastSupport the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Buy rePROs Merch: Bonfire store Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

On Halloween night, a fire broke out an IPAS centre in Drogheda. Four children, including a 20-day-old baby, were among those rescued from the top floor of the building. The next morning the Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan condemned the attack and said that fireworks had been thrown into the building. There were no fireworks, CCTV footage showed a figure setting fire to the staircase. Police believe it was arson and the nature of the attack may justify attempted murder charges.On Free State today, we ask if this will be a turning point in the demonisation of asylum seekers or is Ireland heading down the same road as other countries?Dion and Joe disagree about the direction the country is going. They look at Simon Harris's comments about immigration and ask what responsibility politicians have in a febrile atmosphere to lead rather than to stoke fears? Hosted on Acast.

We open with Herlinda Heras calling from Belgium. Leah Scurto of PizzaLeah and Fairfax Brewing Co's Dan McGarry talk to Daedalus Howell after that. Herlinda is on a barge on a canal in Belgium, on a beer voyage sponsored by Visit Flanders, the tourist bureau. Herlinda's tour has taken her near the sites of some important battles of World War One. It included a visit to Flanders Fields. They visited the Saint Sixtus Abbey in Westvleteren, Belgium. The monks who live there and make beer were quite surprised when one of their beers came out Number One on RateBeer dot com. “The poor monks didn't know what to do with themselves, but now it's quite the destination.” They went to Rodenbach for a blending class and also to Chimay. Vinny and Natalie from Russian River Brewing Co. are also in Belgium for the Brussels Beer Challenge. However they and Herlinda are on different itineraries this time and won't meet up over there. Herlinda has also visited some small local breweries in France and Belgium. She will have a lot to say about her trip on next week's show. "It's tough but somebody's got to do it." Visit our sponsor PizzaLeah in Windsor for the finest pizza menu, great beers and the most authentic flavors around!

Seattle's Fast Fashion (https://themasonryseattle.com/fast-fashion/) has built a reputation for modern, forward-looking IPAs and hop-focused lagers, and the characterful brewery and taproom in SoDo expresses the eclectic interests and aesthetic taste of founder Matt Storm. It's a funhouse of sorts—a bit like drinking in a thrift store full of budget mid-century furniture, stocked with kitsch that spans the past six decades. It's busy and not necessarily thematically consistent—much like the beers the brewery makes—but it's different and unique. You will not confuse it with another brewery. Over the past half-decade, the beer itself has developed from quick hits of new hazy IPAs filled with the coolest names in hops, to a more diverse lineup of IPAs and lagers—still hop forward and immaculately crafted. Under head brewer Stefano Annicharico, they've found a way to make beer that keeps the baseball game-day crowd happy, while also continuing to explore the possibilities in contemporary beer styles. In this episode, Storm and Annichiarico discuss: how Anchovy hops came to have such a unique name brewing drinkable, semi-dry hazy IPA with heavy adjunct loads building acidity in the mash to promote drinkability despite later dry-hop additions that raise the pH boiling hops in hazy IPA with 20-minute additions for more longevity in package lowering whirlpool hop amounts and pushing higher loads in post-fermentation dry hops finding bits of distinct character in hops such as Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and NZ Cascade (aka Taiheke) avoiding excessive rousing to limit hop burn using New Zealand hops in modern hoppy lager And more.

One thing Josh Penney noticed after moving to Brooklyn from Los Angeles late last fall – aside from markedly less sunny weather – was a broader diversity in beer styles across brewery taprooms.   “It seemed to be a wider range of things that were really appealing to everybody,” he said. “Because out on the West Coast, you might have a robust porter, but then you have, like, six different IPAs.”   Penney is the head brewer at Brooklyn-based Threes Brewing, a role he took on last year after leaving Los Angeles' Highland Park Brewing. He joins this week's Brewbound Podcast to share insights gleaned from his bicoastal brewing career.   Before the interview, the Brewbound team breaks down Molson Coors' latest corporate restructuring and dives into the scuttlebutt surrounding that ornery New York Times op-ed about one writer's personal issues with craft beer.

The 2024 World Beer Cup was quite a moment for Issaquah, Washington's Formula. (http://formulabrewing.com) Head brewer Jesse Brown is no stranger to medals, but four in one year at the world's most prestigious beer competition made a statement. His career as a brewer may look like “Swiss cheese,” with stints in Wyoming, Tennessee, Oregon, and Washington, but it's hard to poke holes in any of his thoughtfully designed and thoroughly executed lagers or IPAs. In this episode, Brown discusses ingredients as well as the labor-intensive process behind his helles, touches on the hot-side versus cold-side fresh-hop controversy, shares his approach to New Zealand hops that won him a silver medal for New Zealand–style IPA at World Beer Cup 2025, and finishes with thoughts on what it takes to win when so many brewers are making such great beer. Along the way, he discusses: front-side decoction without a dedicated vessel extended saccharification rests to build malt depth gently handling lager to avoid bruising the beer the differences between 34/70 strains transferring before terminal to get a head start on clearing yeast the fresh-hop “controversy” the beauty of Dolcita and building mouthfeel with hops blending base malts for West Coast IPA selecting early-pick New Zealand hops for lower diesel character And more.
