This recipe is short of brilliant. Promise me.
At first, I had no intention of cooking with beer tonight. But a series of “unplanned” events resulted in a culinary creation unlike anything I have ever heard of or seen of before!
The recipe was inspired by my cravings for salmon. Lucky for me, I found some “wild [...]
This past weekend, Triple Rock Brewery and Alehouse, the longest running brewpub in the United States, hosted its annual Firkin Fest. About 25 breweries from all over California submitted a cask for the event. Proceeds from the event went to benefit the Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation.
Triple Rock is well-known in the Bay Area for [...]
Tomorrow is Earth Day! Woot woot!
(For those of you who have trouble remembering the date, it is always two days after 4/20 … yeah just saying)
And although I am a firm believer in celebrating Earth Day everyday, the date itself is a great opportunity to challenge and inspire people all over the world to change [...]
Exactly one week from now I was in Chicago, where I spent roughly 6 days partaking in the madness known as the 20120 Craft Brewers Conference and the 2010 World Cup.
Last week I reported back to you with highlights of my first two days — what I will refer to as “pre-conference” days. Tuesday night [...]
Are you a beer geek with some sweet filming skills? Or are you a professional videographer with some sweet beer geeking skills?
This summer, craft beer advocates and film buffs will have two different opportunities to showcase their passion for craft beer and talent for videography.
The first event will the “first-ever” Short Pour Film Festival [...]
Some people like maltier English-style IPAs. Some prefer the more resiny and hoppy American-style IPAs. Personally, my favorite is the West Coast IPA.
To each their own, right?
The other day I opened up what I will refer to as an “old” IPA. It had lost most of its, once very pronounced, Pacific Northwest hop aroma and [...]
Cooking with beer has become a relatively new obsession of mine. As much as I hate “wasting” beer experimenting with recipes, when I stumble upon something “successful” it can be worth it.
My rule of thumb (as with most chefs), is that any recipe that calls for water is an easy opportunity to add more flavor. [...]
My sincere apologies to my fellow HopPress writers and my editor, Mario Rubio, for neglecting my HopPress column. There are reasons, but this is not the time or forum to discuss them.
But the good news is that I’m back.
Last week I had the opportunity to partake in 7 of the 10 days of San Francisco [...]
Unfortunately, it took me entirely way to long to post about San Francisco Beer Week. And it is almost over. My bad.
Curious about where I will be today? I’ve listed the events that I will most likely be attending (99.9% certain) on February 11th. Hopefully, I will run into some of you (my readers) out [...]
True Story: The Beer Wench has an intense fascination, preoccupation … and obsession with wild yeast beers. The gueze, in particular, is my all time favorite style of beer.
Two years ago, I would have been celebrating New Years with Champagne. But that was before I discovered “The Gueuze” during a fateful visit to Chicago in May [...]
