The Craft Brewers Conference was held in Indianapolis last month and at the ingredients supplier booths, amid the talk of new hop varieties, there were several beers brewed with non-traditional grains. That's worthy of a closer look and on this episode you'll hear from two brewers - Garrett Oliver of the Brooklyn Brewery and Sandy Boss Febbo of Bang Brewing - who are all in on Fonio and Kernza. The BYO Nano Podcast Episode 65  is sponsored by:RahrBSG / Gambrinus IPA MaltGambrinus IPA Malt possesses an elusive color falling between very pale pilsner and golden pale ale malt.

Send us a textFor this episode of Brewstilled, I'll be recapping episode 6 of Hacks season 4 from HBO. For episode 6, we got an episode that had a blend of drama and comedy. We're just now 4 episodes away from the series finale and based on what I saw in this episode, we could see more unity between Deborah and Ava. This episode had some moments of revelation for both characters that served as reminders that when the bottom falls out, they have each other in the end. I'll discuss the episode here on Brewstilled with a West Coast IPA from Cellarmaker Brewing Company as the beer pairing. 

This week, the guys discuss Backseat Plastic (punk band from Portland/Vancouver) and Pixels (sci-fi/comedy movie) while enjoying some All Day West Coast IPA from Founders Brewing.

Episode 162, Dean takes the crew on an IPA journey of English IPA from Goose Island, East Coast IPA from Modern Times and a West Coast IPA from Firestonen Walker.

These are confusing times, and hard times to work in a small business. As Bart Watson of the Brewers Association recently said, beer makers really dislike uncertainty. So, how can anyone plan when the global supply chain is changing minute by minute? On this epidode we talk about how to budget for the unknown. The last few months have seen a fire hose of news coming out of Washington D.C., a lot centered around tariffs and global trade. Admittedly, it's difficult to do a show on the topic because of the chaotic nature of the rollout from the White House and how seemingly concrete plans crumble minutes after they are announced. This obviously creates uncertainty in the markets and on main street. This episode features two conversations that center around what might be coming and how to best prepare. Bart Watson the president and CEO of the Brewers Association talks about the bigger picture and then Audra Gaiziunas of Brewed for Her Ledger tells us how you can best budget for uncertainty. The BYO Nano Podcast Episode 64  is sponsored by:RahrBSG / Gambrinus IPA MaltGambrinus IPA Malt possesses an elusive color falling between very pale pilsner and golden pale ale malt.

He also discusses his German brewing education and his approach to balancing bitterness in high‑ABV beers.After the beer break, Brian shares some of Pollyanna's Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Toasted Marshmallow Fun Size pastry stout with peanut, coconut, vanilla bean, sea salt adjuncts, while sharing his thoughts on how to brew with lactose appropriately. Then, he discusses Pollyanna's expansion into distilling, the difference between brewing and distilling, and how much overlap there is between beer drinkers and consumers of spirits.

One of our favourite beer scenes on the planet is the glorious state of North Carolina, and this past winter, we were lucky enough to visit twice. On the way down to Florida, we swung by Raleigh, NC, and our first stop was Funguys Brewing, an innovation-driven spot that came highly recommended by friend of the show, Will Cleveland. Cee hung out with Nick and Carly to chat about the North Carolina scene, their homebrew beginnings in Pittsburgh, PA, their love for Mac Miller and their annual dedicated releases, their take on the longevity of different styles, their favourite hops, their fun approach to smoothies and seltzers, why their beers always have a story, and their upcoming seventh anniversary releases. They got into six impeccable Funguys beers - Von Brango Pilsner, Thumbs Up Hazy IPA (Mac Miller Dedication), Spring Cleaning West Coast IPA, Good News Double IPA (Mac Miller Dedication), Bussin' Cool-Ade Inspired Hard Seltzer, and It's On Like DK! Smoothsicle Smoothie Sour. This was a great conversation - cheers! BAOS Podcast Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube | Website | Theme tune: Cee - BrewHeads

Strong brewing communities produce clusters of great breweries, and the Colorado brewing world, centered in Denver, is no different. Friendly competition drives innovation, exploration, and refinement as well as knowledgeable consumers with higher and higher expectations, and in this episode, we brought together three friends (each medal-winning brewers) for a conversation on their approach to West coast IPA. Brian Hutchinson of Cannonball Creek (http://www.cannonballcreekbrewing.com) has brought home a slew of medals in the pale ale space (11 total GABF and World Beer Cup medals between their pale ale and session IPA), and picked up a GABF gold medal last year for their New Zealand-style IPA. Jake Gardner of Westbound & Down (https://westboundanddown.com) has earned a handful of GABF and World Beer Cup medals for their West coast IPAs like Spirit of the West and Westbound Select. And Phil Joyce of Amalgam (https://www.amalgambrewing.com) most recently brought home gold for West coast IPA in the Colorado Brewers Cup, after placing fourth at the Alpha King Challenge last year. In this episode, the three move through a range of IPA brewing topics, including: designing IPA with clean flavors that are easy to linguistically identify decocting and step mashing WCIPA for higher attenuation, foam stability, and FAN uptake building a malt base in WCIPA with blends of Pilsner malt using flaked wheat in smaller percentages for mouthfeel fermenting with Chico yeast for dry and low-ester beers minimizing hop creep with ALDC, diacetyl-free yeast, and other yeast health tools driving faster and healthier fermentations for more vibrant hop character understand the impact of water on WCIPA integrating flavor and bitterness the impact of pH on hop expression selecting loud hops that punch hard And more.

While it is rewarding and exciting to own a small brewery, there is also a lot of worry that comes with it. Over time things can snowball, accumulate, and become a burden. Regular check-ins on mental health are important, and no matter who you are in the brewing space, or your role, taking care of yourself is paramount. That's the focus on this episode. Everyone is feeling the stress these days. From outside influences to internal worry, everyone is carrying a lot of weight on their shoulders. If you're running a small business, the worry of your staff is on you as well. While there are many things in our control, there are also a lot of things that are simply not easily dealt with. Finding balance from within and managing what you can is important to mental health. Being pulled in a dozen different directions all at once rarely brings calm, but by focusing on what you can control and finding the moments - or longer - to take a break adds up to a better human experience. Of course there are other considerations to mental health in the beer space, and other challenges to navigate. To get a better understanding on what is available out there and how to best access it, we're pleased to be joined by J Jackson-Beckham, the Director of Member Resources for the Brewers Association, better known in the industry as Dr. J.A former professor of Communication Studies, Dr. J dedicated her academic career to the study of American beer. She is an author, speaker, vocal advocate for the craft beverage community, homebrewer, and Certified Cicerone. In 2018, Dr. J was named the Brewers Association's first-ever Diversity Ambassador. In 2020, she was named Imbibe Magazine's Beer Person of the Year.

Today's beer is infamous for more then just it's taste and hoppyness. Apparently it's also had a viral moment when a certain Beer Fest celebrity posted a picture with the logo. Aside from that Slap and Tickle is a easy drinking West Coast IPA with huge notes of Pineapple and guava but still delievers the citrusy and pineyness you'd expect from the style.

Oregon has forever been renowned as one of the greatest craft beer scenes in North America, perhaps the world, and it's a travesty that we hadn't had a brewery from the state on the pod until now. Ben Edmunds, Co-Founder and Brewmaster at Breakside Brewery, joined Cee to chat about their esteemed 15-year history, how Oregon craft beer hadn't fallen to the trends, how they took the brewery from one location to six across the state, their approach to hospitality, how they drop around 10 fresh hop beers every year, what it's like being 20 minutes from the best hop farms in the world, their barrel program, their flagship beers and his take on Ontario craft beer from his time at the Ontario Craft Brewers Conference in 2024. They got into seven impeccable Breakside beers - White Tea Lager, Tropical Pale, Pilsner, Wanderlust West Coast IPA, West Coast, Best Coast IPA collab with Grains of Wrath, Somebody New In The Old West (2024) Barrel-Aged Stout, and Don't Worry About That Fireplace (2024) Barrel-Aged Stout.

Send us a textFor this episode of Brewstilled, it's a recap of Week 18, the final week for the 2024 NFL Season in the House of the Lombardi. For what has been a rather surreal season, the playoffs are the next chapter as 5 House of the Lombardi teams will advance to the playoffs. In Week 18, The Baltimore Ravens defeated the Cleveland Browns in where the Ravens secured the AFC North Division. Tampa Bay also won the NFC South after a scary game to the Saints. As for Atlanta they played their last game of the season in their loss to the Panthers. Yet for a silver lining, the Falcons appear to have their next franchise Quarterback with Michale Penix Jr. The Jaguars lost to the Colts and later fired their head coach Doug Pederson. The Cowboys lost to the Washington Commanders in their last game of the season. For the Cowboys next story, that will be the future of their head coach Mike McCarthy. Will Mike McCarthy come back to coach the Cowboys in 2025? The Rams beat the Seahawks as the Rams will also advance to the playoffs. The Jet's lost to the Dolphins in what might have been Aaron Rodgers last game in the NFL. The Chargers won against the Raiders while the Chargers will go to the playoffs. For the Raiders, their next question is the status of their head coach Antonio Pierce. Also, what role will Tom Brady play in the Raiders offseason? The Detroit Lions also secured the NFC North in their win against the Vikings. Now the playoffs loom. I'll be discussing this and more here on the Brewstilled Podcast with a no alcohol West Coast IPA from Surreal Brewing. It's all here on Brewstilled!

Before there was brut IPA, cold IPA, NEIPA, black IPA and white IPA, west coast IPA reigned supreme.  Like all IPA, hops are the star of the show in west coast IPA, but for all of their attributes: their bitterness, aroma and flavor.  But the best IPAs, those that win gold medals, are built on the right water profile and supporting foundation of malt.  Fermentation matters, too.  Arguably, the American craft beer industry was built on west coast IPA, so let's take a look at what builds great west coast IPA.This Episode is Sponsored by:Estrella GaliciaEstrella Galicia is an independent, family-owned brewery  in northwest Spain, founded in 1906.Estrella Galicia Cerveza Especial is a world class lager, brewed using the finest Spanish malts, locally  cultivated Galician hops and the best brewing practices, in a state-of-the-art facility in La Coruña .

T'was the night before Beer Week and all Hallows eve. Not a brewer was stirring, not even a leave...of delicious hops that rest in the kettle of a West Coast IPA, to test a brewers metal.

Learn how Horse Thief Hollow became the most award-winning brewery on the south side of Chicago, having won 10 major awards (and counting). Horse Thief Hollow Brewing Co's Jake Nelson (Head Brewer) and Adrian Morrison (Brewer and Sales Manager) discuss the fascinating legacy of Horse Thief Hollow Brewing in Chicago's historic Beverly neighborhood, exploring the origins of the brewery's name, its cultural significance, and why the Illinois militia had to run off horse thieves in the very early days of Chicago. They also share their humble beer origin stories, including Andrian's rising through the ranks in order to get to where he is at Horse Thief Hollow. They also talk about what “cellar work” actually means when working in beer before they discuss how Horse Thief Hollow Brewing Co. has become the most award-winning brewery on Chicago's south side, including a deep dive into how they overcame the challenge of brewing high-quality Pilsners consistently in order to come up with their award-winning Little Wing Pilsner.  After the beer break, they discuss Annexation, a West Coast IPA, including an explanation of what makes an IPA a West Coast IPA specifically and why West Coast IPAs are making a comeback. Jake also talks about when a beer is “done” and he doesn't feel like he needs to keep changing a recipe.

IPA can be a whole lot of things, but when we were cutting our teeth on hoppy beers, the West Coast style dominated. Appreciation of the style never really died off, but it's regaining a bit of ground on the still more-popular hazy IPAs. So we turn to the actual source - the West Coast - for five beers that are somewhat varied in their interpretation. And because we love this style so much, it doesn't take us long to have too good of a time. Also, we deem 90s music safe for professional development meetings with some caveats; we motion for a “C” Change; and there's an almost unhealthy amount of beer nostalgia to wash it all down.  Beers Reviewed Pure Project Brewing (San Diego, CA) - Pure West AleSmith Brewing Company (San Diego, CA) - IPA The Lost Abbey (Vista, CA) - The Right Side of Happiness Beachwood Brewing (Huntington Beach, CA) - Citraholic Great Notion Brewing (Portland, OR) - Easy Lift  

Explore bitter beers with Midwest Coast, including ESBs, English Pale Ales, and IPAs that cater to evolving palates. 01:48 Beer Myth: What's a “girly drink” when it comes to beers? Katherine and Brian and their guests shatter the myth that some beers are “manly” and others are not.  07:32 Midwest Coast Brewing: Cameron Compton, founder of Midwest Coast, and Timothy Ficken, brewery manager, talk about what brought them together to Midwest Coast. They share the different beer trends that were emerging in their very different parts of the country, with hops being a central part of one brewer's background and almost completely absent from the other's. Cameron also discusses his time in the military and in the tech world and what compelled him to move with his wife to Chicago, where he had never lived before, and open a brewery with his sister. Cameron also explains how hop contracts work and why they're so brutal for brewers to work with. What is an English IPA and what is an ESB? Timothy explains the concept behind the “Extra Special Bitter” and how they developed an English Pale Ale in order to make a certain style more palatable – and marketable – for customers. Katherine brings up a conversation about whether the Western palate really is designed to handle hops (is it?) and Brian explores the idea of a person's palate changing as they grow older. What is hoppy and what is earthy? An EXTENSIVE debate ensues, including a confused Cody who doesn't know how to explain what he's drinking. 54:20 Beer Behavior: When is it okay for brewers to chase trends and when is it not? Katherine gives props to Cameron and Timothy for sticking to the styles they like to brew, which evolves into a discussion of the benefits of trend-chasing – as long as someone else is doing it. 1:01:48 Today's Featured Merchandise: Our amazing baseball hats, available in multiple styles and colors!

Fair State Brewing Collective (https://fairstate.coop) head brewer Joe Wells has a deep love of tradition but no fear of the future, and the brewer's multiple focuses on everything from pale lager and modern IPA to sparking hemp-derived THC beverages is evidence of such. The point is matching flavor and experience to occasion, and Wells thinks about the entirety of that engagement when designing beers and beverages. In this episode, recorded on the eve of the World Brewing Congress in Minneapolis, Wells talks about: brewing classic lager with American grains and ingredients embracing the cereal mash with corn grits and rice flour for lighter beers that don't sacrifice character lager brewing with American Noble hops using Columbus cryo in lager and IPA dialing in Tetra for foam retention in adjunct lagers using the cheapest ingredients as expensively as possible triple decoction and its place in the certain beers debunking conical versus horizontal lager fermentation dank and sticky West coast IPA layering aromas like perfumers designing and making interesting hemp-derived THC beverages And more.

With his new brewery, Ism (https://www.ism.beer), Ian McCall is back in the brewery and taproom that once housed Beachwood in Long Beach, California—a brewery where he was once lead brewer—although he's in a different position now as founder and owner. Despite the very young age of this new brewery, McCall and team have already made a big splash, landing three World Beer Cup medals earlier this year, two of them gold, and one in the prized West Coast IPA category for their IPA Western Standard Time. The conversation, of course, turns to West Coast IPA, and stays there, as McCall walks through his award-winning IPA. Along the way, McCall covers: optimizing the beer lineup to eliminate lower performers driving leaner malt in West Coast IPA using group hop selection to his advantage brewing with wheat to boost body without affecting dryness moderating chloride levels in West Coast IPA shaping bitterness to hit strongly and quickly then disappear using active fermentation dry hopping to push fruitier hop notes building complexity with hot side hop additions constantly evolving even award-winning recipes And more.
