  • 380: Garrett Oliver of Brooklyn Brewery and Vinnie Cilurzo of Russian River are Brewing for Impact With Folio Grain
    Sep 27 2024
    While Garrett Oliver of Brooklyn Brewery (https://brooklynbrewery.com) and Vinnie Cilurzo of Russian River (https://www.russianriverbrewing.com) need little introduction, the grain they’ve grown fond of brewing with—an African millet grain named fonio—may be unfamiliar to many brewers. In this episode, the two legends of brewing discuss the background of the grain and how and why they’ve used it in a series of new beers, produced for the Brewing for Impact (https://brooklynbrewery.com/news/brewing-for-impact-russian-river/) project. Along the way, Oliver and Cilurzo touch on: the limiting impact of our western industrialized food system the history and nature of fonio grain farming and climate benefits of fonio using fonio as a brewing component at various percentages fonio’s unusual amino acid-like bitterness the impact on FAN in finished beer and its implications for potential stability and longevity a basic step mash regimen for Belgian pale with fonio the sauvignon blanc-like flavors that fonio can produce nearly clear beer made from 100% fonio And more.

  • 379: Cinderlands Builds Full Dynamic Range into Fruit Beer and IPA by Thinking Beyond Purée and Pellets
    Sep 20 2024
    Paul Schneider of Cinderlands (https://www.cinderlands.com) is an optimist and a realist—but first and foremost he’s an analyst, studying the evolution of consumer trends and working tirelessly in the brewhouse to find creative and process solutions. He’s not afraid to use all the tools at his disposal—pulling solutions from food science, where necessary—while testing, honestly evaluating, and ensuring that everything they produce at Cinderlands meets the expectations of their drinkers. The Pittsburgh brewery drastically overhauled its fruit beer program for 2024, moving away from sweeter, thicker fruit beers in favor of flavored light lagers and “beyond beer” beverages, but—as Schneider explains in this episode—that shift required significant research in the food-science space. He’s also been an avid adopter of modern hop products, and here he shares their approach to layering hops in a variety of formats to achieve a variety of goals—from value-engineering IPAs for wider distribution to maximizing intensity in brewery-only releases. Over the course of the episode, Schneider riffs on: designing fruit beers to hit different value tiers without sacrificing flavor altering processes and bitterness in base recipes for balance with specific fruit additions light lager as a base for fruit beer sourcing juice and purée concentrate for more survivable and ranging fruit flavors and aromas using natural flavor top-notes in conjunction with other fruit formats adjusting dosing down in production batches from bench trials using flavor psychology to bolster fruit flavors without sugar value-engineering hop flavors and aromas for production IPAs without sacrificing quality saturating hop notes in the UHD (Ultra Hop Definition) series And more.

  • 378: Mark Hunger and Steven Pauwels of Great Lakes Brew Distinctive Craft Lager, Under Pressure
    Sep 13 2024
    Great Lakes (https://www.greatlakesbrewing.com) in Cleveland is an American craft beer institution—a brewery that got its start in the late ’80s, when the concept of smaller breweries still seemed foreign to most drinkers. Now, 36 years later, the scale is much larger than it was in those early days on the seven-barrel pub system—yet some of those early brands persevere. While those beers inevitably evolve amid shifts in scale and tastes, the core ideas that inform them haven’t changed. In this episode, longtime brewmaster Mark Hunger and co-CEO Steven Pauwels, the former brewmaster at Kansas City’s Boulevard, talk about that evolution as well as new developments in hop-forward beers. Along the way, they touch on: brewing lager with proprietary yeast for a signature brewery flavor using pressurized fermentation and warmer temperatures for faster lagers using automation while double-checking with human testing adding a touch of dryness and drinkability through sparge pH adjustment using sulfur as a tool for flavor and shelf stability Oregon-grown Mt. Hood hops for American lager character evaluating Munich malt for their annual Oktoberfest beer using public variety hops such as Triumph, but not Centennial, in Midwest-style IPA brewing filtered, clear IPA with London Ale III yeast And more.
