This week, Jason brings in some delicious beers in a variety of styles. Two beers in particular stand out among the rest. First, One Cap Kolsch from Three Magnets Brewing gives us a good laugh – not only because the brewery is literally asking everyone to rate the beer one cap on Untappd, but because the beer label trolls Tim so hard, he didn’t even realize it until the brewery explained it. Second, we declare that the grandfather of the west coast IPA, Pliny the Elder, has been dethroned by another Russian River brew. Happy Hops, an American IPA with a throwback to the now defunct Grace Brother’s Brewing, has the perfect combination of aroma and bitterness.

250: Homebrew With Eric Hoffer

Episode 250 – This week, Homebrewer Eric Hoffer brought some awesome homebrews to the studio to share with us!

On this show, we’re joined by home brewer Eric Hoffer. His cheap and imaginative approach to brewing translates to some tasty beer. Brewing in a bag, lagering at 70+ degrees, and culturing his own wild yeast are just a handful of the tricks we discuss. Eric isn’t just brewing another IPA either; he’s digging deep into some forgotten styles including a doppelbock, dry-hopped pilsner, and the simplest style of ale, cream ale. Eric’s love of beer, brewing, and ingenuity inspire us all to get back to brewing ourselves.

Thanks to Eric for sharing his homebrews and his unique and enlightening take on homebrewing!
