RATING THE MACRO MICROS
(Note: I totally messed up, and have since corrected, this post when it was first published. I plum forgot my #1 favorite of the macro micros BLUE MOON BELGIAN WHITE , made by none other than the Adolph Coors Corporation. Ive tried to belittle and knock down this beer, and every time Ive had it, especially the two most recent times, Ive found it to be fantastic. Correction noted on 8/27/08). read more »

Trinity Brewing Co.
Jason Yester, who used to be the head brewer at Bristol Brewing, is opening a new brewpub right down the street from where I work. Listen to this lineup of their own and other beers that they are going to have on tap:
- Trinity Wit - A distinct and delicate flaked wheat beer flavored with orange peel and coriander.
- Trinity Chi - Golden Speciale, spicy hops and a complex malt interlay with a light fruit ester in this session beer.
- Trinity Flo - Our India Pale Ale combines both English and American brewing traditions to create an aromatic and pleasant hoppy treat.
- Trinity Saison - A French farmhouse ale, brewed using local seasonally available ingredients.

Monday musing: The bright side of the hops shortage
Hold your horses, Wired magazine. This headline, “Craft Brewers Reformulate Beer to Cope With Hop Shortage,” might leave the wrong impression.
Think Samuel Adams Boston Lager is being reformulated? Sierra Nevada Pale Ale? Coors Blue Moon White? New Belgium Fat Tire Ale? Deschutes Black Butte Porter? Bell’s Oberon? Etc. Etc. The beers that most people buy, the ones behind year after year after year of spectacular growth, are mostly staying the same. What do you think, 90%, 95% or 99% of them?
OK, there might be small changes — the kind brewers make all the time, tweaks for a variety of reasons, and that drinkers don’t notice.
Instead I see a couple of opportunities. One is for “alternative ingredients” (like brewers haven’t tried pretty much everything in the last several thousand years) that will be a blip in terms of overall sales but get attention. read more »

Monday musing: Which beer is the oddball?
Perhaps you saw this kind of problem when taking tests in your youth. Pick the one of each four that is least like the others.
- Geary’s Pale Ale, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, Magic Hat #9, Fuller’s London Pride.
- New Belgium Blue Paddle Pilsener, Victory Prima Pils, Alaskan Stout, Miller High Life.
- Blue Moon White, Allagash White, Hoegaarden, Weihenstephan Weiss.
- Guinness Draft, Deschutes Black Butte Porter, Rogue Chocolate Porter, Flying Dog Gonzo Imperial Porter. Added June 13 - Oops, that should be Rogue Chocolate Stout.
What did you base your decisions on? Style? Color? Price? Size of the brewery? Something in what you taste? Something else all together? There are no right or wrong answers, unlike the home school problems Sierra was working on while I composed this post. read more »

Is it spring YET?
The winter depression is so deep in my office right now that there were actual, audible moans, coming from cubes all over the floor, when it was announced that it seemed to be snowing again this morning. Only a flurry, mind you, nothing real. But what used to be pretty is now cause for grief. We're all just so OVER winter.
I noticed the beer industry has heard our cries. While it just isn't appropriate to think about beach beer yet, they are slowly inching us into seasonal mindsets. Here's the start of a decent to do list:
Sam Adams released the White Ale this year for spring. It is a milky, unfiltered, Belgian wheat. read more »

Ten Craft Beers That Changed America
From the Appellation Beer Blog post , here is the list with my own brief comments. In my own useage, "microbreweries" are among those small breweries (some of them not so small anymore) that were started after the first one, New Albion Brewing Co. of Sonoma, CA opened its doors in 1978. You need to go to the source for the original "flavor" of the post. Comments in italics are from the original post. Submitted for your consideration, here 'tis the list: 1.
