Wanted to share this cool video from Bell's Brewery about their hop selection for one of my favorite all-time beers, Two Hearted.
Check it out.
"In September we traveled to the Pacific Northwest for our annual hop selection. We met with many farmers who've become friends over the years. Their hop fields are extensions of our brewery and they care about quality as much as we do. This is the beginning of #TwoHearted."
Here is last night's edition of Tap Time on 103.7 The Buzz with Grant from Lost Forty talking about their upcoming Festival of Darkness this weekend and lots of other fun stuff. He brought a tasty Saison Victoria with him to share plus some of Lost Forty's popular The Hunter Oktoberfest.
"Follow the beer making process from hop farm to glass, as we learn all about the historic harvest tradition of wet hop brewing with Five Points and Hukins Hops. We visit the hop fields, then follow the Bullion crop up to London where Five Points brew a best bitter with them!"
Lagunitas Brewing: "Once we brew and bottle our crazy fresh Fresh Hop Born Yesterday Pale Ale, it's time to get it to you as quickly as possible. Digitally dive into how it's done with Lagunitas."
Lagunitas Brewery: "It takes a village to raise our fresh hop, unfiltered Born Yesterday Pale Ale. Check in with folks from all around the brewery to see how they get this beer borned."
Check out Tap Time on 103.7 The Buzz from earlier this week with our guest John Crow calling in to discuss the upcoming Arkansas Times Craft Beer Festival and lots more.
Thanks to Bryce for bring us some great out-of-market beers to sample...
Dogfish Head: Stop, collaBEErate and listen! Excited to announce that we’ve teamed up with our new co-workers at The Boston Beer Company to create the ultimate collaboration beer – CollaBEEration!
Brewed with two very different types of honey – hello, Zambezi and Brooklyn! – this continually hopped pilsner celebrates the coming together of two breweries. Though vastly different, you’ll find they’re exceptionally complementary.
The use of bees and honey in this special limited release is a nod to the interdependence and unity between Dogfish Head and Samuel Adams, and the result is a remarkably smooth and clean beer that’s chock full of tropical and floral notes, balanced by an earthy spice.
Hitting taps Friday, Oct. 11 at our Milton Tasting Room & Kitchen, as well as the Samuel Adams Boston Brewery Taproom, available … until it’s not!
A collaboration between two fiercely independent entities rooted in commitment to uncompromising uncommonness.
With a complete disinterest in catering to the masses, both built their legacies around the core belief that what makes them notorious is what makes them… them. So what happens when you combine such forces? You’re looking at it.
Brewed in Berlin, this 8.5% ale is brewed with the secretive proprietary blend of herbs, roots, fruits and spices provided by the gatekeepers at Jägermeister in Wolfenbüttel, Germany. Yes, there’s a town in Germany with that name. Yes, it’s where Jägermeister is headquartered and made.
The result carries with it an audacious level of complexity and depth. Predictably, it’s not for everyone. Nothing worth its weight ever is. Nothing worth a damn ever is. But for those who seek a higher understanding, we offer this next step in liquid enlightenment.
You were already combining the two on your own. After all, the gargoyle and the deer are ever watching. They never blink. Ever.
Lagunitas BrewMonster Jeremy Marshall walks us through what makes fresh hops so special in the unfiltered, lupulin-drenched, Born Yesterday Fresh Hop ale.
