Friend of the podcast Josh Noel stops by to discuss his new book on the history of Malört, and of course a little beer talk as well. Email Eletters to: Insiders@craftbeertemple.comMailing address: The Beer Temple 3173 N. Elston Ave. Chicago, IL 60618Intro/Outro Music: Gorilla Meat by Jogger UYD4L!

Steve Dale chats with author Josh Noel about his book, Malort: The Redemption of a Revered & Reviled Spirit, and how Malort has become a cultural symbol of Chicago. Josh explains the history of Malort and shares a toast to all the mothers on Mother’s Day.

Malört existed long before you made your first “Malört face.” The story of its survival and eventual 21st century triumph is a twisty, fascinating business story laid out in Josh Noel’s new book, “Malört : The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit.” It’s a business story. A love story. A marketing story. A Chicago story. I can’t recommend the book enough. In this episode, I talk with Josh Noel about the book and Malört history. To appropriately set the scene, we met at one of Chicago’s great neighborhood bars, Live Wire Lounge (3394 N. Milwaukee Avenue). Thanks to Dave and bartender Mikey Classic for their hospitality, and for turning down “Girl’s Got Rhythm” by AC/DC on the house system for the interview recording. If you’ve ever wondered why Malört tastes the way it does or how on earth it became Chicago’s go-to rite of initiation, I encourage you to read the book.

The Reset team has gone through our year of conversations and hand-selected our personal faves to share with you before 2024 wraps up. In September, Reset sat down with writer Josh Noel to talk about his book, Malort: The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit. His book asks how a spirit that “tastes like bandaids” and has been the butt of many jokes survive generations and go from a lone bottle collecting dust in the back of bars to becoming an infamous Chicago must-try experience? This conversation has been lightly edited for clarity. You can find the original interview here: New book chronicles the unlikely staying power of Jeppson's Malört (September 5, 2024).

Well, sit right down, my wicked son, and let us tell you a story, about the subject of this year's Discord & Rhyme holiday episode: the Pixies! (Or technically, just Pixies.) Hailing from Boston, the alternative rock quartet dealt with mounting intra-band tension with little to nothing to show for it financially, leading bandleader Charles Thompson (alias Black Francis) to break up the band via fax in 1991. But the band's critical stature gradually grew to gigantic proportions in the ‘90s, as their albums influenced bands like Pavement, PJ Harvey, Radiohead, Weezer, and especially Nirvana, who built an entire movement out of the classic Pixies “quiet-loud” formula. When they reunited for a reunion tour in 2004, they found, much to their shock and awe, that their songs had grown into anthems. Their 1989 album Doolittle is arguably the peak of their original run, featuring songs that could plausibly fill an arena without sacrificing their scrappy indie energy, so join Rich, John, and Dan as they sail away on a (festive) wave of mutilation.Cohosts: Rich Bunnell, John McFerrin, Dan WatkinsComplete show notes: https://discordpod.com/listen/153-pixies-doolittle-1989Discord & Rhyme's merch store: http://tee.pub/lic/discordpodSupport the podcast! https://www.patreon.com/discordpodMalört: The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit by Josh Noel: https://www.joshnoel.net/malort-book

Hear how Malört's devoted supporters fought for its independence and prosperity. It's a David and Goliath story you won't want to miss!The Inside TrackThe Guys have been mystified by Malört for a long time and Josh's book had them marveling at the (eventual) success of this “evil spirit”(On liquor executive George Brody's marketing strategy for Malört)Josh: He initially tries to position it as a very high end product, something you need to learn to savor. The first time you taste it, maybe it doesn't quite click for you, but sit with it and soon you'll understand the elegance. That did not work for Malört. So he pivoted quickly to what you were saying, which is, are you man enough? Literally, are you man enough to drink this?Francis: I'm not, by the way, I'm definitely not!-Josh Noel on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2024BioJosh Noel, food and beverage journalist, had a decades-long tenure at the Chicago Tribune in addition to contributions to This American Life, the New York Times, and other publications.

Why, after almost a century of toiling in obscurity, did Malört experience a cultural and economic renaissance in the 2010s, making it not just a staple at Chicago dive bars but in high-end cocktail lounges and cities around the country?Those questions are all addressed in local writer Josh Noel's latest book, “Malört: The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit,” published earlier this month by Chicago Review Press.Reporter - Iridian FierroGuest - Josh Noel Want to donate to our non-profit newsroom? CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Send us a textAnthony Bourdain tasted the wormwood-infused liquor Malört for his TV show “The Layover” and said, “its brash nature" created “a possibility that I could get all stabby and belligerent.” Today we're talking about Malört, the truly Chicago booze.Show your love of this podcast for the cost of a coffee:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/chicagohistoryLeave me a voice message - just click on the microphone in the lower right corner here: https://www.chicagohistorypod.comUp your cocktail or Sodastream game with Portland craft syrups!https://portlandsyrups.com/collections/all?sca_ref=1270971.MO4APpJH1kAffiliate Links (anything you buy through these links - not just this stuff - helps benefit the show at no additional cost to you):BOOKS:Malört: The Redemption of a Revered & Reviled Spirit by John Noel https://amzn.to/4cT7BJ3Chicago Handshake Drinking Card Game (Transit Tees)https://amzn.to/3My8GeOSupport the show

How did a spirit that “tastes like bandaids” and has been the butt of many jokes survive generations and go from a lone bottle collecting dust in the back of bars to so closely linked with Chicago that bartenders and enthusiasts alike tattoo it on their bodies? Well, it has to do with a plucky businessman named George Brode and his secretary Pat Gabelick. Reset learns the history as laid out in a new book from a veteran food writer Josh Noel, author of Malört: The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit. For a full archive of Reset interviews, head over to wbez.org/reset.

Dan Bernstein and Leila Rahimi were joined by author Josh Noel to discuss his upcoming book "Malört: The Redemption of a Revered and Reviled Spirit".

There's a masochistic element to drinking Malört, the bitter liqueur beloved by Chicagoans and reviled by others. But beneath its herbaceous and citrusy intensity, it represents much more than a challenge to your palate. To drink Malört is a rite of passage—entrance to a secret club you have to earn your way into through a tongue buckling finish and nearly a century of history.  In his piece for Good Beer Hunting, Chicago-based freelance writer and culture journalist Josh Terry unpacks the storied spirit as only a Chicagoan could. That piece, titled “Stormy, Husky, Brawling — Chicago's Divisive Spirit Jeppson's Malört Is For Everyone Now,” explores the core of Malört's history, after its invention during the 1930s, but before its hipster revival in the 2010s. In this episode, we'll talk about what it was like to dive into the endlessly debated, but deeply meaningful spirit, one that he says isn't as bad as everyone thinks. He describes the first time he tried Malört and the rules he has about drinking it now—rule one: never drink it alone—and what he wished he could have expanded on in the piece. We also discuss Josh Noel's forthcoming book about Malört, how photographs and social media helped create hype in the digital age, and why this bitter spirit is more popular than ever. I'm not sure Malört is for everyone, but it definitely holds a special place for lots of people. Let's hear from one of them—right now.

Episode 295 - Josh Noel, author of Barrel-Aged Stout and Selling Out Josh Noel taking a photo of all the awards he received for his book, Barrel Aged Stout and Selling Out. Courtesy of John Holl, of course. Happy Monday, Thieves! If you tuned into our show with Ryan Scott of Odd 13 last week, you'll recall Justin played a rather mean trick on Augie, John, and Ryan by putting a "Christmas IPA" from ABI/Goose Island in the second black glass. That beer's barely-drinkable nature prompted us to wonder aloud whether we should get Josh Noel on the show. Josh literally wrote the book on Goose Island—BARREL-AGED STOUT AND SELLING OUT: GOOSE ISLAND, ANHEUSER-BUSCH AND HOW CRAFT BEER BECAME BIG BUSINESS—focusing on the eventual AB acquisition of that company, so we wanted to talk to him about what the hell we just tasted. So we called him up and got him to join this week. Tune in and you'll hear us discuss the journey that lead Goose from a small Chicago brewpub all the way to that repulsive Christmas beer we sampled last week. Tune in and let us know what you think!***As always, you can email your questions, complaints, whimpers, or whines to us at stealthisbeerpodcast@gmail.com.

When Goose Island sold to AB InBev in 2011, it rocked beer drinkers in Chicago and beyond. In Chicago, it’s still a sensitive subject for many.

12-30-18 AG Craft Beer Cast Top 10 Beers 2018 plus my interview with Josh Noel from May. 

This week, we chat with Chicago Tribune beer writer and author of 'Barrel Aged Stout and Selling Out', Josh Noel. Nick and Josh discuss the lack of transparency by companies such as Anheuser Busch (AB-InBev) and why craft beer customers often feel betrayed when their breweries seemingly 'sell out' to raise capital for growth. Check out Josh Noel's blog at www.joshnoel.net and purchase his book online from an independent retailer if you can!

Recorded in Begyle Brewing Company on Chicago's "Malt Row," Mayor Emanuel and beer writer Josh Noel plunged into Josh's new book, Barrel-Aged Stout and Selling Out, to explore the story behind craft brewing, the community it created, which new Chicago taprooms to keep an eye on, all while sipping a few samples along the way.

Ah, most of this episode revolves around us discussing the book Barrel-Aged Stout and Selling Out by Josh Noel. We do manage to get in beer brags at the beginning, but even an exceptional FDR is overshadowed by our enthusiasm. It of in itself is tangentially related to the book. Also included is an informal poll Jeremy conducted in response to what he read.Beer in this episode: OrvalCheers!

In this episode, we have our friends from The Collective Brewing Project back in studio with us to discuss what they’ve been up to recently and to help discuss making additions to your beer to change that flavor profile. It’s most often fruit and wood, but we hope to branch out into a few other interesting areas and lately The Collective has been catching some nationwide notoriety for some of their experiments. Then, later in the show we have a phone-in discussion with Josh Noel, beer writer for the Chicago Tribune and author of the recently released Barrel Aged Stout and Selling Out: Goose Island, Anheuser-Busch, and How Craft Beer Became Big Business.

It’ll be another six months before the next wave of Bourbon County hits the supermarkets, so we check in on the 2017 lineup to see how they’re tasting after half a year. We are joined by Josh Noel, author of the brand new book Barrel-Aged Stout and Selling Out: Goose Island, Anheuser-Busch and How Craft Beer Became Big Business, to review the beers and talk all about Goose Island and the story behind the book. Never has a craft beer drinker’s relationship with a brewer been more complicated, and we reminisce on the pre-sale days of innovation in styles and marketing. Then we talk plenty about what has changed since that fateful day in 2011 and all the people responsible for what we now know as Goose Island and how the craft beer world has been redefined with the acquisitions race of the last five years. But also, is this the least impressive lineup of Bourbon County to date? And how can Goose reinvigorate the legacy of their premier release? We try and figure it out before the ABV catches up to us.

Josh Noel, author of the new book about Anheuser-Busch InBev's purchase of Goose Island, tells us about the sometimes-bitter integration of an international company with a start-up. We'll find out why Eckert's is handing out strawberries to area businesses. Lambert Airport director Rhonda Hamm-Niebruegge on STL's new non-stop route to Iceland.

We finally take a breather from the road this week with our buddy Kirby Dean from Blake’s Hard Cider Company! Kirby tells us about his background on the dark side (distribution) and ho he moved toward the light of the supplier world. Then he shares the latest from Armada, and we get to try this delicious trio: Rainbow Seeker, Santa Rosa, and Wild Nova! We lead with what we hope is the last word on the sad tale of Green Flash with The San Diego Union-Tribune reporting  what Green Flash's woes mean to craft beer. Next we have The Wisconsin State Journal’s  interview with Josh Noel on his new book, Goose Island, and 'selling out' in the craft beer world. Then it’s The Denver Post and Pete Coors’ letter calling out “cheap shots” from Colorado craft brewers, and we wind up with The Examiner spotlighting the world’s oldest surviving beer revived from a 220-year-old shipwreck! Then we have your responses to last week’s #caskquiz which asked “do you know a brewery that combines brewing with another activity/business like Division Brewing does? What brewery and what else do they do?” and this week we are asking “do you agree with Pete Coors that the hard-line stance of the BA ultimately hurts all beer?” We so love hearing from you!

Eight years of Bourbon County tells an interesting story about Goose Island as a brewery, so we have the guy who is literally writing the book on it join us for a vertical tasting. Josh Noel from the Chicago Tribune helps us nitpick our way through eight years of BCBS. There’s Goose info galore including the backlash over Josh’s sleuthing on the beer’s true origins, and how the brewery went from nearly out of business to being the juggernaut it is. You’ll also hear about the debate over aging beers, Craig the vanilla locomotive, Loggins Run, and actual news about Josh’s book release date. Don’t live life two ounces at a time, man!

Another Dark Lord Day approaches, so we review a vertical of 3 Floyds’ signature special release with a little help from the Chicago Tribune’s beer columnist Josh Noel. Should you ever age a Dark Lord? Is it really just a decent beer? Are the variants worth it? The answers will probably not shock you. But we do our best to contribute to the conversation by talking about the changes to the fest itself, this year’s variants, and 3 Floyds’ place in local beer culture. There’s also some Goose Island talk, thoughts on the next era of beer, Josh’s day of karmic realignment, and the most Indiana story ever. Jud Jud.
