Beervana: Meantime, an American-English Brewery?
http://beervana.blogspot.com/2011/12/meantime-american-english-brewery.html
You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Monday, December 05, 2011. Meantime, an American-English Brewery? I began transcribing my audio tapes today, and I'm going back in order to the places I first visited- so today I worked on Fuller's and Meantime. There's a huge, huge amount of fascinating stuff here. A lot of it is at such a fine level of detail that I won't be able to use it in the book- but of course, it's ideal for a blog. Then I set up a brewery in Fullham called Freed...

You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Thursday, April 30, 2015. One More Post on Sexism. I recognize I've been on a bit of a tear about this lately, but this is the last one. You can find it over at All About Beer. Tuesday was one of those days of convergence when the universe seemed to be telling us something. In Baltimore, anger bubbled over. All of these incidents have something in common—they represent the friction that inevitably happens during social change. Brewery New...

Beervana: A Consolidation Dialectic (or Why Buy-Outs Do Sort of Suck)
http://beervana.blogspot.com/2015/01/a-consolidation-dialectic-or-why-buy.html
You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Tuesday, January 27, 2015. A Consolidation Dialectic (or Why Buy-Outs Do Sort of Suck). Who wrote one of the more entertaining versions on my blog Facebook page. You don't want AB InBev to own this brewery. Really. In philosophy and logic, there's a concept known as "dialectic," which indicates a train of reasoning that flushes out bad thinking and gets at the truth. There are many different versions of dialectics (it goes back to the...

You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Monday, April 27, 2015. Dive Bar Challenge: The Nite Hawk. A few Saturdays back, after we'd sampled a number of fine ales at the Farmhouse Fest, I coerced a group of friends to join Sally and I as we looked for a TV set playing the elite 8 Wisconsin matchup against Arizona. We were out in North Portland and decided to walk over to a venue I'd not haunted for at least two decades- the Nite Hawk Cafe and Lounge. Breweries in ZIP code: 0.

Beervana: Sam Calagione and the Other 99%
http://beervana.blogspot.com/2011/10/sam-calagione-and-other-99.html
You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Monday, October 31, 2011. Sam Calagione and the Other 99%. There's a great little interview at the blog DCist. With Sam Calagione, who apparently channels his inner Jeff Alworth. Or maybe I regularly (and unwittingly) channel Sam. Among the nuggets I found especially satisfying:. But the women I know don't want to be separated from the beer loving populace, in general. They want to be part of it. I know tons of women who are way h...I alw...

You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Thursday, April 23, 2015. Collagen Beer for the Ladies. Since we've been having this discussion about gender and beer, it seems appropriate to pass along this little tidbit:. Recently, Suntory Holdings Limited launched the latest beer targeted at women in Japan and named it “ Precious. Now, aside from that 1960s-era sentiment, what's the story with collagen? It would, according to Dr. Ariel Ostad. Medical Center. Alcohol is not health...

Beervana: Beervana's Best Pub Crawls: Division Street
http://beervana.blogspot.com/2011/07/beervanas-best-pub-crawls-division.html
You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Monday, July 18, 2011. Beervana's Best Pub Crawls: Division Street. A lot of people come to Portland on vacation. A lot of them want good beer. Unfortunately, very few of them have the kind of time and money it would take to do a thorough tour. They- perhaps you- must therefore be choosy. But how? For this crawl, that way you don't have to think about the bus; just hop on it when you're ready. (Click map to enlarge). It's just one of Port...

Beervana: Bud Bombs Again
http://beervana.blogspot.com/2015/04/bud-bombs-again.html
You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. On Tuesday, Bud Light was pushed to apologize. For a tone-deaf (and avoidable! Tagline that appeared on a number of bottles as part of it’s “#UpForWhatever” campaign, which advertised the beer as “perfect” for “removing ‘no’ from your vocabulary for the night.” The label was criticized for promoting rape culture after an image appeared on Reddit. Prompting social media backlash. 7:34 AM, April 29, 2015. As much as...

Beervana: Women's Beer?
http://beervana.blogspot.com/2011/05/womens-beer.html
You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Wednesday, May 18, 2011. Happening on one of those extremely forgettable macro ads recently- maybe the Coors Light ad touting the temperature-sensitive labels- Sally turned to me and said, "They're not selling beer, they're selling packaging." Remember this anecdote as I relay news that Carlsberg has a new product aimed at women. Has the company come up with a new recipe that might appeal to women's palates? Nope It's about the package:.

You love the blog, so subscribe to the Beervana Podcast on iTunes. Friday, May 01, 2015. New Book Project: Brewing the World's Classic Styles. I've been a little slow to mention my latest book project, but now that it's well under way, it's time to come clean. The idea was an outgrowth of my research for The Beer Bible. Which brings us to (working title) Brewing the World's Classic Styles; Advice From the Professionals. John Boyle at Mighty Oak (mild). Hans-Peter Drexler at Schneider (weissbier). I've al...
