All about brewing beer.
Jay Sheveck has been working on a film about the early days of craft brewing, Beer Pioneers, for fifteen years. Now slated for a summer of 2010 release, he’s just released a teaser trailer and it’s work a look. I, for one, am looking very forward to this one.
As of today Widmer Brothers Brewing is about halfway to it goal to raise $10,000 for Big Brothers Big Sisters by Aug. 11, officially Brother’s Day in Oregon.
The Widmers will donate $1 for each humorous e-card sent from the brewery’s website.
The company also will donate $1 for each person who becomes a fan of the brewery on Facebook.
“Our effort to support Big Brothers Big Sisters is a personal commitment,” Kurt Widmer said. “We know firsthand the value of strong role models and of course, the importance of brotherhood.”
“I just hope Kurt remembers to buy me a Brother’s Day present this year,” added his brother Rob.
Brother’s Day was made official last year when Aug. 11 was proclaimed a holiday in the State of Oregon and the City of Portland.
The good folks at Dogfish Head Brewery are planning a toast in a little less than an hour, at 6:00 p.m. EST. Here’s the plan:
So the crew over at the White House have their beer summit planned – who knows what they’ll end up drinking – we’ve most recently heard it’s going to be Bud Light (eee gads!), but we know what they should be drinking – fantastic beer from a great American craft brewery!
There are thousands of great American craft breweries (more than 1500 of us at last count), and we’d love to see the President and his crew coming together over a craft beer. But whatever they end up drinking – one thing this whole brew-ha-ha has accomplished is getting the word out about American craft beer.
So, to celebrate the depth and diversity of the American craft beer movement, we propose a toast. We invite you to join us (either at our Rehoboth Beach brewpub or on our live webstream) at 6:00pm Thursday, July 30th for a toast to American craft beer.
Just because they may not enjoy great American craft beer at the White House doesn’t mean you can’t!!!

Made according to kit instructions,
using the kit yeast and 1.5kg Black Rock
Light Malt extract.
It is a solid bitter as expected from
the stable of Coopers. Easy drinking
with a good hop malt balance reflective
of the style. It is very slightly darker
than perhaps a XXXX bitter ale, but not
the extremes that many manufacturers
produce, of claiming that it is Aussie
style bitter and it oozes out of the
fermentater darker than a Newkie Brown.
A good kit and many hours could wiled
away with resulting product. Cheers.

I love all Muntons
products & “Yorky” as us Australians
call it is no exception. I’ve made a
yorky using two Yorkshire bitter kits
1.8kg + one 1.5kg of extra pale unhopped
liquid brewing malt made upto 32 Litres.
Fremented at 20oC. P.s. Australia loves
Muntons. – Rating:5/5

I bought this one from woolies for
around $8 and used Coopers Brew Enhancer
instead of sugar.
It turned out pretty weak tasting, but
still okay to drink. Probably about as
good as a VB or NEW.
Can’t argue with the price.

26degC is way to hot for this beer to be
brewing at. Do this with a lager yeast
at 15deg C , with 1kg of light malt.
Then you’ll have a fine beer.
