Cheers To Beers

Get ready for a classic Jess and Shawna rant (but make it mini). 

In this ep we talk ABinBev being fucking sneaky with their sellout beer agenda, sketchy Beer venture capital groups, and journalism in the social media age. 

Drink West Coast IPAs and be Dankful. 

 

The Beer Kitchen: The Art and Science of Cooking and Pairing with Beer

by Melissa Cole 

The Oxford Companion to Beer 

The history of witch imagery, how it's related to women brewing, and spoiler alert, the patriarchy and colonialism ruins the party again. Happy Halloween!

A Lit, Theatre, Film Major Walk into a Brewery...

Jess and Shawna chat with Michael Dempster of Mirage Beer. We talk capturing wild cultures in a traveling coolship, a love for both saison and NEIPA, the infamous labels, how it's radicalized him and what he's working on to be better.

wtf is the difference between Bav(arian) beer and Franc(onian) beer? Jess and Shawna try to find the answer. Plus! We get the inside scoop on a call in with Ben Howe from Otherlands Beer. 

A small group of us gathered to Pilsnerfest with masks and at a safe distance. These are their stories. Featuring: Otherlands Kellerbier, a speaker phone catch up with Shawna, and another round of 16 CanDolls. Hail Pilsner. 

Shawna's joining me on the pod to interview our friend and head brewer at Lowercase Brewing, John Marti. We're drinking Ayinger Jahrhundert Bavarian Pilsner and talking the difference between Franconian and Bavarian styles, bartending as an introvert, how John's basically a Trappist monk, and industry chit chat and hot goss per ushe. Grab a German Pilz and join us! Cheers!

"The noun for disingenuous is fuckin' liars".

Jess and Shawna give advice about homebrewing and vent about industry bullshit.

I talk with graphic designer and illustrator Casey Callahan over a NE Lager, a collaboration with Lowercase Brewing and Seattle Beer School ft. Casey's design! We chat about breweries giving credit to artists, how to navigate the beer industry as an artist, and "equal" treatment in the industry. Cheers!

What good beer can you find at the grocery store? Spoiler alert: you have to check the date codes.
