    Oktoberfest Traditions Past and Present: How Germans and Americans Celebrate The World's Most Famous Beer Event

    It’s the most wonderful time of the year: Oktoberfest season! What started with a Bavarian royal wedding and horse race has turned into one of the biggest parties on the planet with tents, games, rides and most importantly, beer. But what are the differences between the way Germans brew the beer for Oktoberfest and how other countries do it? What about differences in parties, culture, food, and music? This month on the All About Beer podcast, we talk to a brewer at the classic Munich, Germany based Hofbrau about their brewing practices for their very popular festbier and Chicagoland adjacent brewery Goldfinger about how they keep Bavarian tradition alive as well as create their own spin on the classic beers of this celebrated season. Prost! This Episode is Sponsored by: Hopsteiner Let’s talk brewhouse efficiency: Replacing pellet loads with Salvo cannot only boost aroma density, but reduce trub load and increase beer wart.

    One Iconic Beer: Pilsner Urquell

    One beer “gave us a vocabulary that includes the word pilsner for a style of beer, the word pilsner for a type of malt, and the word pilsner for a type of glassware,” observes the Prague-based writer Evan Rail. “No other brewery has had that type of impact,” he concludes. He isn’t exaggerating. It’s hard to argue that any other brewery or beer has had a greater impact on the world than Pilsner Urquell, the subject of this episode of One Iconic Beer. Among the first golden lagers ever made, it would soon spark a wave of imitators that would spread around the world, a legacy we can see in every pub and store that servers beer. How did a brand-new brewery located in a small Bohemian town with no history of making lagers pull off this trick? And what was so special about the original pilsner that has allowed it to flourish for nearly two centuries? We’ll hear from Rail, who has written more extensively about Czech beer than any English-language writer, about the breweries origins and its development over decades filled with revolution, war, and turmoil. We also hear from Kamil Ruzek, a brewer who has spent the past 24 years at the brewery. He takes us into the brewery and shows us how things work. Join us for the remarkable story of the world’s most influential beer on this episode of One Iconic Beer.

    AAB: 095: Is Saison the Most Versatile Beer Style?

    Saison has come to be defined by just the handful of commercial brewers who make it. But historically, “saison” was an umbrella term covering a broad spectrum of flavors. Modern brewers are now discovering ways to drive different aspects of the yeast that is the hallmark of saison. Ironically, its thinking about water, grains and hops driving these yeast flavors. But speaking of yeast, while “a Belgian saison strain” is a common phrase, in fact, Brettanomyces is often key in making the style. Far from being a singular style, saison offers both drinkers and brewers a menagerie of possibilities.

    The Salvo Advantage - How Peaceful Side Brewing is Adding Flavor Without Sacrificing Beer Loss.

    In this bonus episode of the All About Beer Podcast, Chris Meadows, Head of Brewery Operations at Peaceful Side Brewery in Maryville, Tennessee, shares how Hopsteiner’s advanced hop products helped the brewery reformulate two flagship beers while achieving improvements in cost, yield, shelf stability, and flavor. IPA’s are a double edge sword for most breweries. IPA’s sell the most but are often more expensive to make and distribute sustainably. By tweaking a few key ingredients, Peaceful Side Brewing was able to reduce production cost and routinely gain an additional 1.5 to 2 barrels of finished beer from each production run. By adding Salvo® and SalvoPlus® the American IPA’s dry-hop load fell from approximately 60 pounds into the 40-pound range. With less vegetative material entering the brewery, Peaceful Side experiences smaller trub loads, improved wort and beer recovery, easier cleaning, faster transfers and less water used for rinsing. Most importantly, the beer has improved. In blind internal tastings, participants consistently preferred the reformulated versions. The American IPA gained a clearer grapefruit-and-citrus direction, more balanced bitterness and a cleaner finish without the lingering astringency of the previous recipe. Meadows also credits the reduced hop load and shorter tank exposure with slowing oxidation and keeping the beers tasting fresher for longer. “Consumer response has been overwhelmingly positive, and sales have increased—even though Peaceful Side never promoted the recipe changes to the general public,” says Meadows.

    One Iconic Beer: New Glarus Wisconsin Belgian Red

    In 1993, Deb and Dan Carey released Wisconsin Belgian Red, the third beer they made at their new Wisconsin brewery, New Glarus. It was one of the country’s first “sour” ales, and it created quite a stir, and not just because it was so unusual. The Careys weren’t on a momentary flight of fancy. Rather, Dan Carey, the brewer, had been experimenting with wild ales for six years, and they intended Wisconsin Belgian Red to be a key part of their portfolio. Thirty three years later, it still is. On this episode, we’re going to hear from Jeff Sparrow and Dan Carey about how these old, almost extinct methods jumped the ocean to the United States to become an enduring part of craft brewing. No beer was more critical in developing interest in wild ales than New Glarus Wisconsin Belgian Red, and this is its story.

    AAB 094: 18th Century Beer: How The Colonists Shaped American Beer

    Beer has been an important staple of humanity for millennia. But how was beer important to the American colonists starting a new life in a distant place? The colonies lacked the comforts and foods of their homeland. How did they adapt and through this adaptation, change the drink they loved so much? In this episode, we'll talk to British food historian Marc Meltonville about myths, foods, and brewing/distilling in both England and the newly formed United States. We'll also speak with Genesee Country Village and Museum senior director Brian Nagel and Rohrbach Brewing Co president Joel Will about their collaboration to brew 18th and 19th-century beer recipes to keep these interesting beer styles alive today. This is the perfect episode of the podcast for this month as the United States celebrates its 250th birthday!
