Last week I spent some time in London with a friend and, needless to say, we enjoyed ourselves a very nice pub crawl or two. Now, after years of drinking lager beers in Germany I’ve become accustomed to ales here in the US, so I am perfectly happy with either (most of the time, anyway). […]
For anyone who cares, I did in fact crack open my bottle of La JBK from Kohler Rehm, and it’s neither dark nor a Maibock. To be honest, I have no idea what it was, but it was reasonably tasty, if a little on the sweet side.
I still have no idea what the name […]
Yesterday I wrote about Vogelbräu, a brewpub in Karlsruhe Germany. I had neglected to mention that, not only was it an evening with perfect biergarten weather it was asparagus season, as you can see from the above photo.
Now, for those of us who grew up with green asparagus, those funny looking white things in […]
Vogelbräu is a brewpub on the outskirt’s of Karlsruhe’s city center. Being the selfless fellow I am, I checked it out for you in the lovely (and surprisingly large) beergarden which is hidden in the interior court of the brewpub building. The pils was delicious, but not in the classic sense. When I think of […]
As my wife and co-blogger mentioned, we went out for dinner the other night without kids! For those too young to know, that’s a very exciting thing to us parental types.
In any event, I was pleased to note that the restaurant, already discussed in this post, had a number of beers from the Belgian farmhouse […]
I did a search for a Mother’s Day beer recommendation and I didn’t find a whole lot. What I did find was actually a little surprising - an Oregon brewery which has designated it’s newest doppelbock a mother’s day beer. Without being all too sexist about it, I don’t really think of a mother when […]
I recently stumbled across this webpage from the Wisconsin Historical Society profiling an original Schotz brewery smock from the Laverne and Shirley show, a 70’s sitcom hit set in Milwaukee. For those who don’t recall, the show revolved around two bottle-cappers from the fictional Shotz brewery, Laverne and Shirley, and their two foils, Lenny and […]
I’ve talked about the shortage of hops and barley a few times now, but it’s probably more interesting to hear about it from someone who knows about it firsthand. This article in Flavorpittsburgh.com tells the tale of a grim future for highly hopped beers if the trend continues. According to the brewer at Pittsburgh’s tiny […]
Since yesterday’s post was about the beers of March, French style, I had to follow it up with the famous Märzenbier, German for March beer. Brewed in March, these beers are associated more with fall and the Oktoberfest, which is when these beers would be tapped. To learn more about this style, check out this […]
Here’s an excellent post on French-style March beers, about which I know very little. Read and ye too shall learn.
