Kolek planning to go pro
MKE Brewing is no more. A new brewery will be taking over the 9th street facility.Two WI craft OGs gone this year.
I had to Google. That was favorite Milwaukee brewery to visit. That's too bad.Over expansion?
And the state shrugs. Average brewer and the only time I went to their place was to do the 'open house' portion.
Agree, never had anything exciting or interesting. Very middle of the road.
Totally agree. Looks like they sold to Pilot Project Brewing? Seems like a massive space for a small brewery incubator.
One of our bigger breweries, Sycamore Brewing, is back again with new sex-themed labels for its Xmas ale.https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/business/whats-in-store/article268931602.html?ac_cid=DM728285&ac_bid=1426226778Sycamore Brewing’s risqué Christmas ale labels are a bit subtler this year, but still might land them on some people’s naughty list. Over the past three years, the cans have been wrapped in labels with sex toys in the shape of snowflakes, gingerbread men in bondage and reindeer in sexual positions. The annual holiday release has sparked controversy, resulting in the cans being pulled in 2019 because of frisky reindeer, a design that the state liquor board had not approved at the time. This year, the Charlotte brewery rolled out two approved designs where you have to look closely to see elves wrapping sex toys tagged for mom and dad, and the other, elves wearing sweaters with images of past labels.
Jamaica's Red Stripe was actually 1st brewed by Galena Brewing (1833-1938) in IL.
And now the US distributed Red Stripe is brewed in LaCrosse, at the old Old Style brewery.
Brewing was moved back to Kingston in 2016 after Diageo became owners
Well, Wikipedia says different.
In 2012, Diageo moved production of the U.S. supply of Red Stripe from Jamaica to the U.S.; The supply is produced by City Brewing Co. in La Crosse, Wisconsin and the Latrobe Brewing Company in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, which was the main brewery for Rolling Rock for over 60 years. Desnoes & Geddes will still make Red Stripe for Jamaica, Brazil, Canada and Europe.[7]On 7 September 2016 the company celebrated the shipment of the first container of Red Stripe to be exported to the United States from Jamaica in 4 years. The company says this historic move is core to the company's mission of re-establishing Jamaica as the global hub for the Jamaican brand.
Wiki has part of the answer if you kept reading. If you buy any the label states made in Kingston. It also tastes better since that move. The RS made in the US tasted like crap.
I'm having a Fuller's ESB on tap. Holy crap......excellent brew.
I agree with this assessment. Thanks for the reminder!
I'm not sure I've had it for at least 10 yrs. it sort of reminds me of a good Marzen? II dunno.
lager vs. ale?I brewed a clone of Fuller's ESB and Vintage ale many times (both were a favorite) and several marzen recipes but never thought there was any similarity in the styles
