It's always a pleasure to give flowers to the OG breweries as they paved the way for the industry we all know and love today, so we were stoked to finally get the folks from Steam Whistle (and Beau's) on the pod. President Bromlyn Bethune and Brewmaster Erica McOustra joined Cee and Nate to chat about the Steam Whistle story, why they continue to do one thing really, really well, the expansion to other styles (and the retraction), the acquisition of Beau's and the impact Beau's has had on the craft beer industry in Canada, how they've been able to transition Beau's recipes to the larger Steam Whistle system, their partnership with New Belgium and why they've moved on from that setup, how they've been able to innovate and continue the Beau's brand, and their take on the current tariff situation. We got into a great lineup of beers: Steam Whistle Pilsner, Beau's Lug Tread Lagered Ale, Beau's Juiced AF Hazy IPA, Beau's Lug Lite Light Lager, Beau's Barn Burner Amber Ale, and Beau's Crème Brew-Lée Dessert Stout. This was a gem, cheers! BAOS Podcast Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube | Website | Theme tune: Cee - BrewHeads

New Belgium Brewing resumed brewing at its Asheville, North Carolina-based production facility this week for the first time since Hurricane Helene wreaked havoc on the region and shut down the brewery's operations.    It was a significant stoppage for the company as the Asheville brewery accounted for around 40% of New Belgium's total output. In the wake of the hurricane, the brewery was flooded with around 20 inches of storm water.    More than three months after being knocked offline, Voodoo Ranger Juice Force will be the first beer going into the tanks in Asheville, with packaged products expected to follow in March.    New Belgium CEO Shaun Belongie joins the Brewbound Podcast to discuss the comeback in Asheville, the company's still-unfolding contingency plans and the road ahead.    Belongie also shares New Belgium's 2025 plans, including the introduction of “Mini Ripper” cans of higher ABV Voodoo Ranger Force offerings; LightStrike hard refreshers; and Bell's Oberon Light. He also explores going into year eight of Voodoo Ranger, the opportunities for Bell's, building brands outside of the craft beer bubble and taking over sales, marketing and production of Kirin Ichiban.   Plus, the Brewbound team talks Zoe's trip to the Beer Summit, 2024 off-premise scans and Tilray Brands' Project 420.

Pizza and Beer. We take the pairing for granted…despite it being a must-have at any party and a marriage ingrained in our gastronomic culture. The simple and humble combination of pizza and beer represents more than the sum of its parts…which is especially true when we look at it through a recently announced bold co-branding lens. Nestlé-owned pizza brand Tombstone is teaming up with New Belgium to create pizza-flavored Voodoo Ranger IPA. Without a doubt this product collab is awesome…but how do we make the tie-up even more impactful? I'd utilize Tombstone as the anchor by securing an end cap in the frozen foods section. Then, I'd add a flashy (but small) floor display with the pizza-flavored beer next to the coolers. And for good measure…offer customers a coupon when they buy both products together. Now enjoy!

We head back to Lund this episode for a trip to Inferno. This was the premiere craft beer bar in Lund for years. Sadly, they have scaled back on their selection. You can still find lots of interesting bottles and can but the taplist has become a tap pedestrian. We tried two beers on tap. Normally I would go into the beers at this point but we both felt the taps weren't clean the beers were off. We had Fourpure British Red Ale and New Belgium Hazy Voodoo Ranger. It's hard to recommend either based off what we tasted. Maybe we'll try them again one day and give a proper rating. If you do get to visit Inferno, it's still a nice beer bar with loads of character, just maybe stick to the bottles and cans. #beer #craftbeer #drinks #redale #ipa #newbelgium #fourpure #inferno #lund

If you've been paying attention to the beer social medias lately, you might have noticed a photo of a Colorado-brewed amber ale making the rounds. It's called Re-Tired and it's a clear homage to the original recipe of New Belgium's Fat Tire. This beer, however, is made by Crooked Stave. Chad Yakobson, the brewery's founder and brewmaster is here for a conversation.He founded Crooked Stave Artisan Beer Project 13 years ago and originally it focused around Brettanomyces.  As his official bio points out that his brewing master's thesis was on Brettanomyces and its use in the brewing industry.  “Wanting to spread the wealth of knowledge, Chad published his research as an open-source website to provide a greater understanding of Brettanomyces yeasts for brewers. Focused on strain-specific fermentations and the major compounds produced during pure culture anaerobic fermentation in wort, the application of these yeasts has proliferated throughout the brewing industry.” Wild Wild Brett, where I'll begin the conversation, was a research and development series that really helped drinkers of the time better understand the yeast. But, a changing beer world has it backburnered today.  Still, everything old can be new again, including amber ales. When New Belgium announced it was fundimentally changing its famed fat tire from an amber ale to more of a golden one, many folks were heartbroken, even if they hadn't purchased the beer for some time. Chad walks me through how this homage came to be, and how he never thought Crooked Stave would ever make an Amber ale.  A lot has happened in thirteen years and Chad weaves the story of Crooked Stave and the larger beer industry through the lens of Colorado.  This Episode is Sponsored By:ShopifyShopify's already taken the cash register online, helping millions sell billions around the world.

2023 is looking to be an interesting year for legacy brewers in the U.S. We're seeing closures and contractions, and changes to beloved brands.  Of course, the most noted right now is that New Belgium announced that it completely reformulated Fat Tire, turning it something that bears no resemblance to the amber ale that raised and delighted a generation.   The changes, or “remastered” version of Boston Lager that Samuel Adams announced earlier this year are not as drastic, but are important and do have an impact on what is poured into the glass.  It's impossible to imagine the modern American beer landscape without Boston Lager. When the Boston Beer company launched in 1984 Jim Koch and co-founder Rhonda Kallman were hand selling samples to accounts all over the city.  The beer, based in part on a historic Koch family recipe and further developed by Joseph Owades, a brewing scientist who is credited as the inventor of light beer, was seen as an alternative to the macro offerings of the early 1980s.  The beer won early accolades at the Great American Beer Festival in both the consumer preference polls and the formal judging. Top honors gave it bragging rights as “best beer in America,” something the brewery still uses in the beer's marketing nearly 40 years later.  Boston Beer has grown. Brands like Angry Orchard Hard Cider, Twisted Tea, Truly Hard Seltzer, and Dogfish Head are now all part of the company. Samuel Adams has released hundreds of beers, some that landed well with consumers, and others that faded quickly.  Boston Lager endured. On draft, in bottles and cans, and in every variety pack the brewery releases, the familiar lager is ever present. But as consumer preferences change, and technologies advance, and as brewers strive for a better version of their vision, the beer has evolved.  Koch shares insight on how hop harvest helped evolve the beer, and how historic brewing processes are being used to help the lager taste smoother. If it's been a while since you last had a Boston Lager, now is a good time to give it a fresh try. For more Drink Beer, Think Beer check out All About Beer.
