Ashley is the head brewer there, and we talk about her journey from what seemed like great brewery to great brewery, ultimately landing the head gig at Barley Mow. She sent out four of her beers - including a Milk Stout, which we enjoy - and they were all tasting really great. Ashley was one of those brewers who offered up grain bills and hops freely, so hopefully you can get a nice base recipe going for these 4 beer styles.

Then we dive into the beers, of which Ilan sent 5, and they were all solid examples of Insight's talent and love for brewing.

The Session 03-06-17 Full Circle Brewing Mar 06, 2017

Mike Sumaya came out from Full Circle Brewing in Fresno to talk about the emerging beer culture in California's 5th largest city. He brought two beers with him - one was an Imperial Stout with cold brewed coffee added to it, and the other was his version of a New England IPA. We had tried different versions of this style before, but never one as murky as Mike's, so it was good to see what other people are making out there. We also do some Beer News and drink some of JP's homebrew (and didn't choke).

One was part of his Hop Chronicles series, taking a single hop and trying to get some ultra-detailed information on flavor and aroma, and the other was the classic triangle tests we have done a few times before.

We dropped our usual Christmas show in favor of some homebrew education! Jamil came down from Heretic and joined Alex from Fieldwork and Beardy as we sat around talking about collaboration brews. Mainly what the process is when commercial brewers plan a beer so we as homebrewers can collaborate on our own recipes. Then we got into the details of actually crafting a recipe on the air – what ingredients to use and why, what parameters to hit, etc. At the end, we got a pretty killer stout recipe out of it, which is our holiday gift to you! Brew it and tell us about it! We also played a new game called, “Spread ‘Em!”

This week on The Session we welcome Dave Marliave from Flat Tail Brewing Company back to the studio to talk about his latest crazy project. Dave and his friends decided to to take a motorcycle ride for six days on the Oregon Back Country Discovery Route and brew small batches of beer along the way. The challenge required them to brew on only camping/backpacking equipment and use natural resources to brew the beers. They had to sort through challenges such as changing fermentation temperatures, mobile fermentors, limited resources, and more. They even had to use saliva to introduce enough enzymes to produce an effective mash....gross! Listen in and find out how the experiment worked out and see if The Brewcasters are willing to taste the challenged beer.

We talk about their barrel program for a bit, as well as how they deal with Brett strains and their fruit additions, two things they are known for. It was a great show and the guys really brought it strong!

The Session 10-03-16 Le Castor Oct 03, 2016

Daniel Addey-Jibb, co-owner and brewer at Le Castor joins us for The Session on this episode. Located about 40 minutes outside of Montreal, Quebec, Dan and his team brew some really amazing farmhouse beers for those lucky enough to find them. Many are aged and bottled with Brett, giving them even more complexity than normal. His core style seems to be Saison, but he switches it up by adding different ingredents, such as Grapefruit zest and cracked peppercorns, sour cherries, oak - all of which are Brett-finished. The beers were great, and Dan was very generous with his time and beer. Then our friends from FourPure out in London happened to be in the studio, and shared their "juicy" IPA with us - which was not cloudy and soupy at all and we thanked them profusely for this.

The Session 09-26-16 Breakwater and Pohjala Brewing Sep 26, 2016

It's a weird show today, folks! A great, weird, wonderful show - our longtime friend Phil Lowry came all the way out from England to chat with us about what's going on in the beer scene across the world. Phil has been in the industry for around 20 years, doing everything from brewing to selling beer and hops to serving it to the public. The man has loads of insight into craft beer and he brought a literal box load of beers along for us to drink as well. In addition, he brought along Chris who brews at a brewery called Pohjala in Estonia, who brought many of his beers for us to try. Loads of dark beers, barrel aged, and super well-balanced. So not only did we get to drink some amazing beers that we can't find out here, but we learned loads about the new hot spots of craft beer around the world, like South Africa and Estonia if you can believe it, as well as some new hop names to be on the lookout for. It was a real fun show to run, and Phil and Chris could each have anchored their own show with the amount of information they gave out. Perhaps the best part of the evening was finding someone tinier than Doc!

The Session 11-23-15 Hop Selection and Quality Nov 23, 2015

Hops are still one of the most important ways to add a unique signature and complexity to a beer. Unfortunately hops are also one of the most variable ingredients, especially in the homebrew supply channels. Unlike craft brewers, the homebrewer is not going to Yakima to do selection! The homebrewer has less control. In this episode of The Session, Nathan Smith helps us discuss how to stay on target and find quality knowing that hops are highly variable. We investigate and discuss what we can do to identify the variables when it comes to deciding how to select and use hops, how to limit those variables, and how to adapt and be flexible when you cannot have ideal control over the variables. We're also joined by The Homebrew Chef, Sean Z. Paxton, to help us learn about ways to beer up our Thanksgiving menus.
