Episode 123 - EKU Pils

Thu, 10 Dec 2009 21:50:01 GMT

This German pilsner from the Kulmbacher brewery, owned by the Kulmbacher Group. They weren't a "group" 20 years ago, but they began buying up other breweries, bottled water companies, etc. The usual assumption is that a large group conglomerate would put out a standard macro-brew beer, but this turns out to be one of the best pure pilsners we've had the pleasure of trying.

Episode 119 - Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:13:01 GMT

We end our journey with Great Lakes Brewing Company with their original - and flagship - brew. Once called "The Heisman" and now lovingly referred to as Dortmunder Gold, this is a unique lager style beer from the Dortmund region of Germany. Since 1990, this beer has won 14 Gold and 1 Silver medal from the Great American Beer Fest and World Beer Championships. Is it worth the gold it's been receiving? Oh, oh my yes.

Episode 106 - Sunner Kolsch

Fri, 09 Oct 2009 15:31:00 GMT

From Cologne (Koln), Germany, the Sunner Kolsch by Gebr Sunner, the Sunner Kolsch is a traditional, German Kolsch style beer. Founded in the 1830s, it's the oldest family-run brewery in Cologne. This Kolsch uses Hallertau hops for a unique, earthy, bread-like flavor. We loved this Kolsch.

Episode 072 - Atwater Vanilla Java Porter, Hofbrau Dunkel

Fri, 15 May 2009 18:01:01 GMT

With the promise of real vanilla beans and coffee in a porter, the Vanilla Java Porter from Atwater Brewery falls desperately short of decent. Then we head over to Germany for some Hofbrau Dunkel, a favorite of Johnny's and a decent example of a Munich Dunkel Lager, a darker and smoother version of a pilsner. With a brewery dating back to 1589, the tradition definitely shows through.
