Four Phantoms Looks to Historical Co-Ferments Head Brewer and owner Drew Phillips of Four Phantoms Brewery in Greenfield Massachusetts spoke on Folks Traditions and the Co-Fermentation of Wort and Apple Juice and the brewery's co-ferment called Old Gods (8.0%). There were two talks on the subject, with the first being November 3rd and the second on November 6th as part of CiderDays 2.0 compilation of events. This episode is from the November 6th presentation. Drew is no stranger to fermenting having spent time brewing first in Oregon and then as Head Cidermaker at Artifact Cider Project in Florence, Massachusetts before opening Four Phantoms over two years ago. His interest in old brewing traditions and recipes has him pushing the envelope with special ferments and Old Gods is a great representation of what can be done, when done well. (Read: Old Gods is delicious!!)   Folk Traditions Around Co-fermenting Cider and Beer Drew notes that historically there wasn't such a delineation between beer, cider and mead as there is now. He notes how that in Wassail songs , the call for mixing cider, beer and elderberry boughs all into the same beverage. The use of Hydrometers or the science of acid titration are recent adaptations to a farmhouse fermenter's tool box. Up until the 19th century fermenters would brew by taste and if the wort didn't taste good you would grind up more grain and mash it in, which is a classic way of brewing a farmhouse ale. - Brew by Taste. Drew notes the difference between wort (the base of beer) and apple juice the base for cider. For yeast health fermenters are looking for YAN (Yeast Assimiable Nutrients). In apple juice there isn't alot of YAN whereas with Wort there is alot.  Thus Farmers would ferment Farmhouse ales and often blended in fresh pressed apple juice.  No Heat Ferment Other than the sparing that taste place with the grain used for beer, there is no boiling of the wort as is typical with brewing. Thus, a farmhouse ale can be easily blended in with apple juice to create this co-ferment concoction.  The Making of Old Gods at Four Phantoms 100 gallons of unpasteurized Mcintoush apple juice. No yeast inoculation Blend in with Raw ale - typical farmhouse style The wort was not boiled - No hops Mashed into a whole mash tun of birch branches The result is a tasting drink that blends the two products together. Make sure to try Old Gods at Four Phantoms each fall.  Contact info for Four Phantoms Brewery Website: https://www.fourphantoms.net/ Address: 301 Wells Street, Greenfield, MA 01301 Mentions in this Chat CiderCon 2023 in Chicago - February 1st-3rd, 2023 Help Support Cider Chat Please donate today.

You're listening to the Westerly Sun's podcast, where we talk about the best local events, new job postings, obituaries, and more. First, a bit of Rhode Island trivia. Today's trivia is brought to you by Perennial. Perennial's new plant-based drink “Daily Gut & Brain” is a blend of easily digestible nutrients crafted for gut and brain health. A convenient mini-meal, Daily Gut & Brain” is available now at the CVS Pharmacy in Wakefield. Now for some trivia. Did you know that Rhode Island native, Donald Panciera, was an American football quarterback, halfback, and defensive back in the All-America Football Conference and the National Football League? He played professionally for the New York Yankees, the Detroit Lions, and the Chicago Cardinals. In college, he played for the Boston College Eagles and the San Francisco Dons. Now for our feature story: The numbers tell the story of Westerly Hospital's turnaround and resurgence during the five years it has been part of the Yale New Haven Health system. Patrick Green, the hospital's president and CEO, discussed strides the facility has made during a recent interview. At the start of Yale's ownership in September 2016, Westerly Hospital posted 2,500 patient contacts per year. The number has grown to 4,580 this year. Outpatient patient contacts have grown from 102,000 in 2016 to 128,000 year. Surgeries performed at the hospital on Wells Street have increased from 280 to 700 per year, and the average daily patient census has grown from 29 to 62. Green attributes the growth to the Yale system's commitment to the Westerly region through expansion of programs and services, physician recruitment, investments in new medical equipment, as well as in renovations and other physical plant improvements. Green said: "Everything that we've done has really been following through on our commitment to this growth in Westerly Hospital and making it a viable hospital for the people of Westerly,"  In addition to new facilities, the hospital has added a state-of-the-art hospital pharmacy that meets the needs of both the cancer center and the hospital at large, acquisition of a da Vinci Xi Surgical System robot, and a complete upgrade of the cardiac catheter laboratory. In all, the Yale system injected more than $78 million into the facility during its first five years of ownership. For more about the coronavirus pandemic, the recovery, and the latest on all things in and around Westerly, head over to westerlysun.com. Today we're remembering the life of Ralph Parise. He was the devoted husband of Natalie for 59 years. Born in Westerly, Ralph worked locally as a union mason for many years until his retirement. He was a communicant of Our Lady of Victory Church and a US Army Veteran. Ralph was a life member of the Westerly Yacht Club, the Calabrese Society and the Westerly Lodge of Elks BPOE #678. He was also a member of the North End Social Club. His days were filled spending time with his family especially his granddaughter Grace. He always said "she was his angel from heaven". He will be dearly missed by his wife, his two children, his granddaughter as well as many nieces and nephews. Thank you for taking a moment with us today to remember and celebrate Ralph's life. That's it for today, we'll be back next time with more! Also, remember to check out our sponsor Perennial, Daily Gut & Brain, available at the CVS on Main St. in Wakefield!

Jenny Robins, Wells Street’s head of television and film, is no stranger to the art of storytelling. She's embraced her non-linear path in the television industry and has always come back to what she loves most: story. These days she's focused on the future of Wells Street, the production company set up by Phoebe Waller-Bridge. On today's episode she takes us through her personal journey, creative philosophy and why a good creative day always, at least for her, starts with a delicious hot chocolate and ends with a gin and tonic or two.

Steve and Garry used to be tight with Jay Leno back in the day. He would play Zanies on Wells Street. He would sometimes bring in Fireplace Inn ribs, and just generally made everybody laugh. Then he got the Tonight Show, and there was some distance. Sad... Steve has always suspected it's because he and Garry did that week of late night on CBS. Not that they were any threat to The Tonight Show, but Jay did send them an oddly mean note. They got a nice one from Arsenio, though.

Author/raconteur Steve Silver recounts the scents, smells and happenstances that he experienced while being gatekeeper to Chicago's most storied nightclubs and on the road with bands like Killing Joke and Naked Raygun. We got our food from the wonderful people at La Humita (3466 N. Pulaski Rd.) and chatted about: Working the door at the original Exit (on Wells Street) and Metro. Steve wouldn't let me into Exit when I was underage. Steve's book, "This Might Hurt a Bit," which should include more math. The empanadas from La Humita: AMAZING. The edgy, dangerous original Exit on Wells. The secret origin of local punks wearing Chicago cop coats. The antics and misbehavior of GG Allin at Exit. GG Allin's prostate massage technique. "Prostate massage" is big with the Facebook Live viewers. How Steve's rough childhood prepared him for his career. The process of breaking in a leather jacket... it's not pretty. Campeche: An old pre-Metro institution. The positive, life-affirming stories that counter all the sex, drugs and rock and roll craziness and stupidity Steve saw. That time Brooke Shields showed up in a bikini... Alice Cooper: Best albums? "Frontier justice" and defending women who suffered physical abuse from their partners. Car Con Carne is presented by the Autobarn Mazda of Evanston!
