Text of the page (random words):
the nation others would follow after me some never cared to begin with but everyone had to make the journey they made on their own with everything above we haven t even started getting into my purchasing and trading history i could spare you the details because i am sure you have an idea but i went from buying cases of 20 a piece bombers and trading for beers that are nearly unattainable to now focusing on the enjoyment of beer and those you are with there are many great beers that beer geeks nerds snobs whatever pass over due to their accessibility lack of sex appeal and probably their low low price it is unfortunate that these beers are not purchased and drank more by segments of our community but i think it is a good thing i hit this point before i open the next chapter of my beer life which kind of brings this rambling back to why i started i am greatly looking forward to the beers of germany and all of europe living working over there will give me an opportunity to take my knowledge to another level for a lot of styles i only really know what was written in a book or a set of guidelines i will finally be able to taste them for myself one thing i was going back and forth on was my brewing do i focus on perfecting styles while i have such great examples of them or do i brew what i get homesick for and want to drink i am sure it will be a combination of both but i hope that when i return to the us in 3 years i can be more of the expert that i thought i was when i really knew nothing actual experience drinking these beers around the world the ability to talk about describe and give a rough recipe without looking back over notes you know for real be that guy but we will see there is still a long journey to go and besides these generalities i honestly have no idea where i am going cheers the session 104 goodbye american beer the session 102 the wrap up august 10 2015 august 14 2015 allen huerta 1 comment first off i would like to send out a big thank you to everyone who participated in this months edition of the session while i threw this topic together quite randomly i am happy with the response and the direction that the participants have taken it this was a fun journey and it shows how all over the world we the landscape is changing at this time no one has come forward to publish a topic for the session 103 in september if you are interested do not hesitate to get out there and do it update the session 103 has just found a host host natasha godard at metacookbook topic the hard stuff i will update with the announcement post link once it goes live but for the time being this is what we have to think about update metacookbook has posted her announcement post let s bring up the tough topics and try to fix the issues within the beer community i will just go ahead and start off with my post allen from active brewer here and i feel the landscape of beer is about the people without us where would we be where will we go go ahead and read about it here conrad from in between the brew was the first to join us this month with his post that does not center on the story behind the beers but the stories of the creators the stories of those who enjoy it without them past present and future what would there be it seems we had similar ideas but went down different routes to get there you can read that here dan of community beer works out of buffalo ny chimed in with his comedic newsflash of the beer scene from his brewery in 2035 click over to it here and enjoy the selection of beers you can enjoy a new addition to the brewery that i will keep secret which is quite hilarious so you need to take a look at this as well as upcoming events see where politics went wrong and other musings for your entertainment maybe this is where you want to plan a vacation to in about 20 years i ve recently had the opportunity to meet leslie of not my fathers beer and i love how she brings her personal experiences from the past year things that stuck out in her life was to not to let others including the past define you while the past has it s merits the present is not the same as it was the future will see major changes whether it be through diversity a change in the major players and a few other key points that bring on her predictions to the 20 20 goal go ahead and read it here one of my friends charles of craft beer nation read the initial announcement and many thoughts flew through his head he left some of what he was thinking in the comments section but also went ahead and expanded upon those thoughts here take a look as he brings into perspective what is happening now what he thinks will happen in the next few years and how he gives credit where credit is due he notes facts among the industry consistency is king the business side of the industry and he even dabbles in how he might make a difference i was really happy to see the beer nut s response to my topic everyone writes what they know and he was no exception the difference is his location everyone in my bubble is caught up in the american craft beer scene it is nice to see how things are going in ireland especially since i will spend a few years living across the pond he goes on to talk about a new business that is up and coming which allows those who cannot afford the luxury of brewing on their own terms to come in and brew a batch that will be shared with others go ahead and read his thoughts on those beers here stan an author who may have a spot on your book shelf and one of the organizers of the session kind of threw a bit of what i thought i knew under the bus and backed up onto it i have more reading to do and i am happy that he included the links i need to find check out his post here as he explores the real reasons of the great shift from a historically high number of breweries the major downshift and revival plus an analysis on trends that range 20 years into the past and even questioning if we are in for a trip back to the dark ages in the future his numbers and facts will make you look at the industry and figure out what is really going on growth yes we see it but numbers are king within the big picture derrick with his ramblings of a beer runner pointed out facts that i realized for my self fairly recently he even uses science to help back up his claims if only we realized the world of beer is not about the gotta catch em all mentality earlier in our days we would be better armed for the shifts we are seeing now he goes into those points and give his thoughts for the future follow the jump and take a read sean from beer search party writes in to talk about his ideas with a few disclaimers so they don t come back to bite him later he sets them into multiple categories based on his perceived intensity for each outcome there are a couple of points that i can see happening and some i have seen happening to myself as i mature in the beer world his final crazy prediciton is something i am personally looking forward to what will it be head over take a look and think about it for yourself this month geistbear chimes in observing my current home and what the scene was like and what it is now due to the change of a single law literally changing the landscape of beer i was not living here when it happened but i have seen a lot of changes in my short time here enough to make my stay in nc very much enjoyable after leaving beer havens such as wa and ca see what nc is all about and why the beer bloggers and writers conference picked it as their home in 2015 and asheville was titled beer city usa a few year ago here mark at kaedrin beer blog brings the beer world into perspective by comparing it other industries that skeptics had put doubt into considering the aspects of time that he brought up it is kind of funny seeing the outrage we are having now the digital age has changed a lot of things for better or worse but that also brought on pockets of very unique consumers this is where we begin to question the outlook on the landscape of beer give his post a read and see where we might be within an endless circle jay from a beer in hand says a few things that would make the biggest craft beer nerds scream but when it comes down to it put yourself in their shoes times are majorly changing and we see it happening all the time what does that mean take a look at his post here grab a new and exciting beer then share your thoughts with one another jack from deep beer brought things a bit closer to home the landscape of beer revolved around several aspects for him all that he could see or touch due to some slight changes that took place over the years in the most recent years the changes have allowed him to see and share the love of beer with new people and creating a greater selection of products how does your local area compare to his take a look and find out the final post that i have currently received comes from the other organizer of the session jay and what he did to show us the landscape of beer was just perfect we literally get a look at just what beer is his first realization and one of the biggest components of it takes me to a place that i feel i need to visit such history and such beauty enter into his world here and see what the landscape of beer is really about a commonly occurring theme between a number of post is the realization of a higher level of quality that is needed for new and existing craft breweries to strive it has been pointed out that anheuser busch has impeccable quality and consistency standards that all brewers could take a lesson from and strive to reach in their production the larger craft breweries are moving into that machine like structure they are making quality beer and their growth is no mistake for smaller breweries to thrive and make the jump they will have to follow and do the same cheers the session 102 the wrap up the session the landscape of beer august 7 2015 allen huerta 2015 beer beer blogging friday craft beer the landscape of beer the session 1 comment a few weeks ago i asked a question to the followers of the session a question that i could not fully answer myself not because i didn t know the answer or because the answer was as simple as the question implied but because the question left many possible inferences and i was not sure where i would take it so what does the landscape of beer look like if you ask me i ll tell you to just take a look around we are both the face and the landscape of beer while the beer world is huge there are only a small percentage of consumers actually using social media blogs applications and similar avenues to appreciate and share the love of the craft and their hobby the faces we see online at festivals or just hanging out in breweries are what the landscape of beer is all about writers make the news and break the stories pub goers experience ounces of love one glass at a time and share it with their compatriots social media connects individuals that are worlds apart around a similar interest without that connection what would the industry be take a look to the past before it seemed like only a few breweries owned the marketplace back when there were only a few brands obtainable far and wide most neighborhoods supplied their patrons with their beverage of choice each neighborhood or region had beer that was uniquely their own this is far from the case now where familiar styles are readily available but local consumption is undoubtedly on the rise with craft brewers popping up in many local communities this growth would not be possible without people like you and i we are shaping the landscape of beer the world of macro and micro beer is quickly vanishing while there are breweries that focus only on their immediate area a good number of them are looking into international distribution expanding into new states and further reaching in their current areas this expansion is only possible because we are demanding their products when we share them with our friends or talk and write about the love we have for any producer our voices are being heard and echoed across the world everyone wants to savor a mouthful of the beer that makes our hearts sing what does this mean for the future we are currently in a world of expansion and predicted buyouts will we return to a time that was similar to the pre prohibition era with a few minor changes will greater things be in store will we see no real change to the growth and quality of beer that is available now one vision of the future holds a handful of national breweries this could be a possibility within the next 5 years if the number of smaller local brewpubs and breweries continues to keep pace many neighborhoods will be able to have a constant supply of beer available to them without travel or worrying about breweries from outside the area much like before prohibition i have been on the scene for about 6 years now and have learned a substantial amount when i dove into the world of beer i knew nothing my eyes were open to an endless abyss of flavor and new friends some were fresh faced and over enthusiastic just like myself others were slightly more experienced and beyond that i even ran into a multitude of enthusiasts who knew what beer was even before i was born i looked to them for guidance and i am now at a point where others are looking to me and my peers we can create educated well informed consumers or monsters who take after the likes of those insatiable animals while both are needed to keep the industry afloat the quality of beer that flows depends upon the ones who pay attention and filter flaws from the system take a look around and consider where you want beer to go the shape of the landscape is up to us when it is time to hand over the reins let s do it in a manner that shows we welcome the change and not like an old curmudgeon who wants the kids to get off our lawn cheers the session the landscape of beer caloric breakdown of beer july 23 2015 july 23 2015 allen huerta 2015 beer beer belly calories craft beer fat tire heath conscious macronutrients math new belgium numbers ranger science leave a comment not too long ago julia of craftbeer com and the brewers association posted an article pointing out the fact that the beer belly is a myth she gave a lot of good information and even pointed out that you need to have a balance in your life along with some moderation when it comes to drinking so while the active in active brewer once meant something else it is kind of a shift to another aspect of my life and reading the beer belly article made me want to add onto it apparently i am not the only one thinking about health when it comes to craft beer i do not work in the industry now but am hoping to make the move in a few short years there are many things to think about in order to have a healthy life while still enjoying your favorite beverages i would give this article by oliver of literature and libation a read that focuses on consumer health if you would like a di...
