brewvana an ideal condition of harmony beer and joy brewvana an ideal condition of harmony beer and joy home about brewvana beer syndromes contact brewvana the gospel according to st arnold rss update march 19 2012 just because i mentioned nearly a year ago that we were moving to http www brewvana net doesn t mean that some folks updated their rss feeds or that i changed the link on my nifty little rss button so some good people haven t been getting updates scrolling through their rss feeds if you re one of those folks you can get the new feed here thanks j leave a comment news permalink posted by wilson we ve moved july 12 2011 we ve been working on a switcheroo for quite some time and so this will be the last time i post to the d otwordpressdotcom version of this humble blog there are a few changes improvements and additions but for the most part it ll be the same harmony beer and joy simply housed at a shorter named location www brewvana net please change your bookmarks links and whatnot and visit us at our new home thanks j leave a comment news permalink posted by wilson pleasant surprises july 10 2011 i wasn t surprised that the barbecue was top notch at fiorella s jack stack barbecue when we stopped by for dinner in a relatively unplanned trip to kansas city this weekend i d heard good things about it and we were not disappointed the service and food were both great at the martin city location we hit for a little chow what surprised me was the waitress s response to the what do you have for beer i tossed her as we sat down on the patio to await a table what she said we have boulevard wheat boulevard dry stout boulevard pale ale boulevard _______ fill in a coupla blanks i forget what all she said and then as if an afterthought and we have bud bud light and _________ all too often the wait staff lists the beers with the craft beer relegated to the role of afterthought so i was impressed that this joint had its priorities straight showcasing solid local beers alongside its tasty victuals i went for the stout which was primo from boulevard it seems to me their bully porter gets all the attention but if i have a choice of the two i go for the dry stout any day of the week it s solid and great with the cue cheers jack stack i m a fan 1 comment beer culture food life permalink posted by wilson beer pairings for regular folks part 5 july 1 2011 michelle refused to eat this one but boy did it bring back memories of my youth a simple two ingredient affair beanie weanies is a midwestern classic and one of two or three dishes that my mom cycled through our dinner table on a regular basis when i was a kid it s a bit slick and fatty feeling in the mouth so i paired it with something to scrape the palate clean while bringing in malt and hop booms with an alcohol kick a bottle of boundary bay s old bounder barley wine a gift from bb assistant brewer anthony stone and delivered to me by his kind mother in law who lives in my midst yes the beer world is small and i am very thankful for both anthony and mrs ekdahl the barley wine absolutely did the trick cutting through the fat and oddly complimenting this dish while adding the hop bang so lacking in both beans and hot dogs dead serious give it a try 1 comment beer food permalink posted by wilson beer pairings for regular folks part 4 june 27 2011 making college noodles dreamy so this one starts with a collegiate classic your basic bowl of ramen noodles but before i add beer i kick it up a notch with one of the only condiments that matters sriracha hot sauce it makes everything kick a new brand of ass toss some on your 10 cent noodles next time and see if you don t agree then add an ipa i m tossing back a single wide ipa from boulevard brewing company in kansas city highly recommended with or without ramen noodles groovy hot spank hop spank combo that i find lovely man i wish i could do college all over again 1 comment beer food life permalink posted by wilson and a pitcher to go june 23 2011 i prolly won t be drinking sloe gin fizzes but come august 19 21 i m heading to portland for the second annual beer bloggers conference due to the popularity of my little side project did i mention i ve signed a book deal and we re shooting for a late october release i ve been asked to speak this year on kicking up creativity a notch or two this invite is more than a little humbling as king of amazingness beer legend fred eckhardt is also on the bill the conference was informational and a lot of fun last year in boulder and i m glad to be going back i ve been live in brewvana but i ve never been to beervana so i m very much looking forward to the trip the beer sippings and whatever else may go down portland of course brings to mind jack white and loretta lynn so i thought i d share this video to get you in the mood i m flying out a couple of days early to check out brother matt and miscellaneous other good stuff stay tuned cheers all hope to see you there 1 comment beer life travel permalink posted by wilson adam turns pro june 13 2011 this is the fourteenth installment of an ongoing series by adam draeger an experienced homebrewer and engineer transitioning to the world of professional brewing through coursework at the siebel institute of brewing technology this is the end of the road adam got a job after moving out to greater denver and settling in every day for the first few days i was putting 200 miles on my vehicle dropping off resumes and business cards i use the term business cards loosely since i bought some custom rubber stamps and blank coasters to craft my cards pictured right and visited left hand oskar blues upslope mountain sun boulder brewing avery redstone southern sun great divide breckenridge wynkoop cb potts tommyknocker rock bottom golden city odell s fort collins brewing new belgium coopersmiths eclipse bull and bush gordon birsch bj s restaurant asher brewing denver chophouse pints pub del norte dry dock twisted pine yak and yeti and the brewer s association hq for networking purposes even though i was willing to volunteer a day or two most places weren t giving me the time of day or returning emails phone calls etc a shout out to tommyknocker del norte funkwerks and the ba for letting me job shadow intern there were several days that i was so frustrated that i considered flushing my degree down the toilet and going back into engineering well the fact of the matter is i visited the kroc homebrewing club and these great guys and gals gave me a couple job leads one lead was that chris kennedy at yak and yeti brewpub was leaving he is the new head brewer for jamil zainasheff at heretic brewing i smothered chris with confidence and convinced him that he only needed to show me how to brew once transfer beer once answer a few questions like how to fill out the alcohol tax form and i d be good to go i got the job meet the new head brewer for the yak and yeti in arvada co a little info about the yak the yak and yeti is an indian and nepalese restaurant that has been around since 2001 in westminster their food is apparently the best around i can confirm this after having eaten there now they became sucessful enough after six years to open a second restaurant dol the yak s founder purchased the old english style cheshire cat brewpub which is located in a 1864 old house in old town arvada chris has been brewing on this 7 barrel system made from mostly old dairy equipment for almost three years supplying beer for both restaurants coincidentally the cc brewpub was also in operation since 2001 before ownership changed currently this is only a part time head brewer position due to the low volume of beer sales but i m optimistically going to put some hard work into increasing sales i ve already brewed a batch with chrs and transfered cellared beer several times by myself the other exciting opportunity from this job is the gabf this fall since chris won a gold medal for the himalayan ipa last year the owner wants to me submit beers again so my first time attending the gabf and i ll be pouring my hand crafted beer at the nation s largest beer festival who would have imagined the first question that most of the locals ask me is what do you like to brew or what can we expect for beers i can say for the first round i ll probably just brew chris s four main recipes ipa chai stout pils and red ale once and then add a 5th rotating seasonal most likely a wheat bier since this was an english brewpub there are still four hand pulls in place for cask beer and room for eight other beers on tap so plentyof room to grow although i will have some new friendly competition because just a few blocks away the arvada beer company will be opening its doors in about a month i m hoping we can plug each others beersand both come out ahead as now denverites have a beer reason to come to our suburb if you want more info on the yak you ll have to google it yourself or start with these links www theyakandyeti com excuse the primitive website i m not the webguy but here you can find a news video clip about the brewpub being haunted or you can read a little more about the house s history here http www hauntedcolorado net arvada html i ll be using turtleweiss at gmail dot com as my professional brewing email address in case anybody asks well enough yakking from me if you ever make it out to denver or plan to attend the gabf stop by and try my beers sometime prost adam draeger 3 comments beer food guest posts adam s adventures permalink posted by wilson son of a beer geek part 2 june 10 2011 tom and i headed to extreme images by ashley today i needed an author photo for this book situation in an effort to document the entire monk project his job was to capture the behind the scenes special features stuff so the 12 year old budding spielberg shot stills of the photo shoot for posterity the flash was turned off on my camera phone which is what he was using so they re all a bit blurry but fun nonetheless however i couldn t help but notice that in the shot above ashley s bum was in perfectly good focus while i was a bit blurry surely that s a coincidence a few more below what s wrong with this picture yes i still drink doppelbock say whiskey leave a comment beer life permalink posted by wilson friek in three words june 2 2011 a long overdue 3 word beer review i sat down with a bottle of odell s friek this week in short here s what i got from the cool labeled cherry and raspberry oak aged lambic 1 balanced frambo krieky fruitaliciousness 2 flavaromadelic wooden acid love with rosy hues of beauty 3 undercarbonated i shoved that frieking beer into that goblet but as you can see it is flatter than a pancake it s my only complaint for this yummy beer and the only odellian misstep i ve encountered effing great brewery though this beer is flat it doesn t fall flat i enjoyed it nonetheless 1 comment beer permalink posted by wilson beer pairings for regular folks part 3 may 31 2011 never in my life have i made tater tot casserole but as i scoured my brain for lame food ideas this midwestern classic emerged as a perfect meal for not only this series but also a wonderful pairing for the homebrewed belgian golden strong i planned to crack open success while the dish s only element of intrigue was the flashback to bad lunchroom food as a kid the golden strong did a good job of cutting through the palpable fat and cholesterol building disgusting ness the alcohol brightened the mouth and fought off some of that goofy tater tot flavor interestingly as i searched for just the right recipe i was distracted by a midwestern church cookbook s great place for lame recipes potato weiner bake i was tempted to go there but you know it wouldn t have worked with the belgian golden strong quite as well leave a comment beer food permalink posted by wilson previous entries search jay wilson create your badge brewvana on
