Brew Day and Tasting Notes: Long Leash/North Shore Brewers 2025 Q3 British Brown Ale
When British Brown Ale was drawn as the style for our club's quarterly style and in-club competition, this was an opportunity for another Hombrew Con 2022 rebrew. Whereas Maximillian Lager was brewed for the Muntons booth in the exhibition hall, Long Leash was brewed for my seminar on English Ales . Long Leash was one of four batches I brewed for my talk. A new recipe at the time, I developed it to demonstrate my beliefs in recipe development for English ales. A well-crafted English ale should be a base-malt driven beer. Even my English Porter recipe is 87% base malt. To test my theory I took the porter recipe, replacde the Chocolate Malt with Brown Malt, replaced Wheat Malt with Crystal malt, and replaced the small amount of Extra Dark Crystal in the porter with Chocolate Malt in the brown ale. For the seminar I brewed four, three gallon batches which was not nearly enough beer. Most attendees were lucky to be able to taste two out of the four. I barely had a chance to taste any

A Tour of Wine Grapes: Marsanne
Marsanne 🟡 Photo by Marianne Casamance on Wikimedia Commons Marsanne ( mar-shon ) is a white wine grape from France that has its origins in the Northern Rhône Valley. The grape's cultivation was first recorded in the 16th century. It was formally documented as a distinct varietal in 1781, establishing its status in Rhône winemaking. During the Middle Ages, local monasteries kept the grape alive using it primarily as a blending component long before it was bottled as a single varietal. By the 17th and 18th centuries, White Hermitage (made mostly of Marsanne) was globally famous. U.S. wine connoisseur Thomas Jefferson famously declared it "the first white wine in the world without a single exception." In the late 1860s, Marsanne was exported to Victoria, Australia. Because Europe's vineyards were later devastated by the Phylloxera pest, Australia's now houses the world's oldest living Marsanne vines which were planted in 1927. The grape did not reach California until the 1980s. While Ma
videoEp. 2705 Price-Transparent Wine Market: Demand, Sales Reps & Growth Strategy with Lauren Wiersma ...
Welcome to Episode 2705 of the Italian Wine Podcast. In this episode, Barbara Fitzgerald sits down with Lauren Wiersma Ginter, Italian Portfolio Manager at Winebow Imports. They explore what happens after securing an importer partnership, the factors that help a wine brand stand out in a competitive market, and the evolving role of sales representatives. Key Takeaways: • Distribution creates availability, but people create demand. • Price transparency has transformed the economics of wine importing, making it easier than ever to compare prices across states and retailers. • Human connection remains the most effective relationship-building tool, with people throughout the supply chain playing the greatest role in a wine’s success. More about the guest: Lauren Wiersma Ginter didn’t exactly come from a wine family, unless you count the great-grandfather who took the fall for his sons during Prohibition aft

When you travel to the south end of Bordeaux, you enter a different feel, a different approach, a proud regional group. What was once just called the Graves district, now has su-appelations and this one is Pessac-Leognon. Home of some amazing Chateau that seem to be understanding and coming to grips with the changing consumer landscape. The region is steeped in tradition, and it should continue to be, but is working hard to attrack and speak to younger consumers. One of the methods spoke about in this part of Bordeaux is enhancing the experience; how can we as a group of wineries, enhance the experience of our guests and visitors? To help answer that question...Ludovic Fradin stopped by the studio to explain. Ludovic Fradin didn't just bring bottles to the studio—he brought a Molotov cocktail for Bordeaux's old-guard comfort zone, ready to toss assumptions out the window. If you've ever wondered whether the grand estates of France cling too tightly to tradition or if Napa's bombastic w

Whiskey Review: Eagle Rare 17-Year (2024) Bourbon
Introduction For the second time this season, we're reviewing Eagle Rare 17-Year. That alone is wild—after nine seasons of the podcast without ever getting our hands on a bottle, we've now had it twice in one season. Buffalo Trace has somehow let us into their good graces, despite everything Brad has said about them over the years. This is the 2024 edition of Eagle Rare 17, which officially released in fall 2023 as part of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC). Earlier this season, we reviewed the 2023 edition, which Brad rated as one of the best whiskeys he’s ever had on the podcast—an astonishing 45.5/50 score. So, this release has a lot to live up to. A few key stats: Age : 17 years, 4 months Proof : 101 (50.5% ABV) Evaporation Loss : 86% (only 14% of the original liquid survived maturation) With all that in mind, let’s dive into the 2024 Eagle Rare 17 and see how it stacks up.

videoAre Bordeaux and Napa Finally Getting Cheaper? The Week in Wine Podcast, Episode 41
Don lauds a pair of 'workhorse' wines (a Côtes de Rhône and a Californian Zinfandel) while Olly enjoys a steely Riesling from the Saar. Two pieces this week tickle Don's fancy: wine's reluctance to engage in a class-based discussion (all while other aspects of DEI are frequently touched-on in wine marketing); and news that Ohio will send the interstate shipping debate to the US Supreme Court. We take a look at the Irish connections in wine as well as reviewing a recent piece about the Bordeaux wine industry looking to find new ways to bring people back to the region. Don also goes into a recent piece looking at tumbling Bordeaux (and waning Napa) prices in the US. Meanwhile, a Moldovan winery commissions a one-off Porsche; one grower in Bordeaux's St-Julien appellation is grafting Chardonnay onto his red vines; a highly localized hailstorm hits Champagne; the bosses of the notorious wine website 1855.com are back in the courts on fraud charges; and there's a nasty case of poisoning f
