How about a mid-week Microbrew for your earbuds? Host JR Radcliffe catches up with Spencer Michaelis, Brewers minor-league savant, to discuss the news that the team was extending minor-league outfielder Luis Lara and putting him on the 40-man roster. What are the Brewers getting with Lara? Where does he fit on the current roster, and more importantly, WHEN does he fit? Why hasn't Lara been a bigger name on his way up the minor-league ladder? Spencer provides keen insight on that and more minor-league topics, like who might be next to sign an extension and a couple intriguing recent names. They also talk about the wild 15-14 win Milwaukee staged in Las Vegas over the Athletics on June 8.

During the recent craft brewers conference All About Beer set up at Human Robot for a suite of podcasts. I was happy to get together with Brandon Jones, the long-time brewer and creator of Embrace the Funk. It's a conversation that goes into the evolution of extreme beers to nuanced, complex brews. As Jones has begun to note the shift of consumer preferences, he sees a move away from hazy IPAs towards more unique, experience-driven beers.He advocates for brewers to ask questions and learn from each other. As the industry involves, he shares insight into the brewery's cider program, which is inspired by European natural ciders.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:John I.

**Originally posted by subscription only on January 25 2025**In the rugged backcountry of British Columbia, outdoorsman Jeremy Evans set out for what should've been a routine day in the wilderness. Instead, he found himself face‑to‑face with every hiker's worst nightmare — a grizzly bear charging out of nowhere.What happened next is the kind of story that sounds impossible: a brutal, chaotic fight for survival, a desperate crawl back to safety, and a rescue that hinged on sheer willpower and a bit of luck. But Jeremy didn't just survive — he came back with a message about resilience, instinct, and the thin line between life and loss in the wild.In this episode, we walk through Jeremy's astonishing encounter, the choices that kept him alive, and how the attack reshaped his relationship with the wilderness he still loves. It's a story of grit, courage, and the kind of strength you don't know you have until the moment you need it.Sources: https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/calgary-grizzly-attack-survivors-story-shows-power-of-humans-to-survive-against-all-oddshttps://cochranenow.com/articles/grizzly-bear-attack-survivor-shares-his-storyhttps://www.noiser.com/real-survival-stories/grizzly-bear-attack-ambushed-in-the-rockies Hosted on Acast.

Mild is one of the oldest continuous beer styles in the English speaking world, it was the working class pint, the beer that fueled industrial England, pulled from cask and corner pubs, consumed in volume by people who needed something honest, drinkable and affordable at the end of a long shift. At its peak in the early 20th century, mild accounted for the majority of beer sold in Britain. It wasn't a specialty, it wasn't a conversation piece, it was just beer and then almost disappeared entirely post World War II. By the 1980s mild had been reduced to a footnote. CAMRA waged a decades long campaign just to keep it on life support. So why are we here on a stage or in the grass at Little Beer festival in 2026 treating it like it matters?  Because, the market is quietly telling us something. We're in a moment defined by low and no alcohol growth, a consumer exhaustion with extreme beers, and real hunger for what you can call intentionally simple beers that reward attention rather than demand tolerance.  Mild, a style built on nuance at low ABV, is almost perfectly positioned for this cultural moment. Whether the industry is ready to actually embrace that is another question, and that's what we're here to explore today. This episode is hosted by Blake Tyres of Creature Comforts Brewing Co. He is joined by some of the most thoughtful professionals driving success in this space right now.

There was a time when "adjunct" meant "cheap beer." One of America's largest breweries even paid millions of dollars to run television commercials during the Super Bowl accusing another of America's largest breweries of using worse adjuncts than they themselves used.Oh, what a world!But for craft breweries, an ingredient is an ingredient. What if adjuncts added flavor?  What if adjuncts actually cost more than malted barley?  What if adjuncts could tell a story of time and place?Corn and rice aren't cheap anymore.  They have a history.  They tell a story.  And good breweries know how to use ingredients to tell the story of great beer. 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:All About BeerAt All About Beer, we're honored to share the stories that define the beer community, and we couldn't do it without the generous support of our underwriting sponsors.

Let's talk about hop sensory. Last week the craft brewers conference was held in Philadelphia and brewers from around the world worked to better understand processes, ingredients, and recipe development. One thing brewers and therefore drinkers can always benefit from is hop sensory. There's no argument that hops bring great depth of flavor and aroma to beer, but aside from some top notes that many of us are able to pick out, there's not always a lot of extra layers discussed. To dive into this deeper, Master Cicerone Max Finnance has a conversation with Jeff Dailey of John I. Haas. 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:All About BeerAt All About Beer, we're honored to share the stories that define the beer community, and we couldn't do it without the generous support of our underwriting sponsors.

Welcome to This Week in Rauchbier for April 1, 2026. Our Rauchbier spotlight is on the Pacific Northwest where eight breweries have come together to release Smoke Break, a collaborative Rauch Märzen built around a simple idea: Rauchbier is great, and more people should be drinking it."The project brings together Cloudburst Brewing, Obelisk Beer Co, Varietal Beer Company, Ladd & Lass Brewing, Ravenna Brewing Company, Urban Family Brewing Co., Human People Beer, and Single Hill Brewing (who hosted the collaboration.) It is a larger-than-usual collaboration centered on a style that does not often get this kind of spotlight," reads a press release. "Smoke Break is a mid strength Rauch Märzen brewed with beechwood-smoked barley, and a touch of oak-smoked wheat. The result is a malt-forward lager with notes of caramel and cocoa, backed by a firm but clean smoky finish that lingers without overwhelming."Then Bart Watson the President and CEO of the Brewers Association joins us to share the latest growth and success of Rauchbier in the marketplace. Finally, we hear from Brian Shirley at Time & Materials Beer talks about his cask rauchbier. Enjoy these audio smoky delights. For more Drink Beer, Think Beer check out All About Beer.Host: John HollGuests: Bart Watson, Brian Shirley, Andrew PytelTags: beer, craft beer, rauchbier, smoke, April Fool's DayMusic for this episode:NewsSting by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4124-newsstingLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

That includes several players in spring training this year and players who will contribute mightily over the next two years.They discuss what traits allow the Brewers to shine, the shift from a pitching haven to a hitters paradise, the reasons we should be stoked for Jesús Made and Luis Peña, a trio of future (or present?) third-base options, the players most likely to impact the team in 2026, the best pitchers in the organization now that Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson are with the big-league team, the breakout stars in waiting, whom we're likely to see if we visit High A in Appleton and a few guys still below your radar. For now.We'll be back Monday morning with our usual episode focusing on the big-league team.

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.Dogfish Head Craft BreweryCalling all hop heads!

From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan's fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan's modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

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.
