The subject of water and most importantly, pH can be utterly confounding. Buffering capacity, acids, salt concentrations, “measurements expressed as” and temperature add to a mix of questions that baffle even experienced brewers. We sit down with Martin Brungard to work through common questions we see online to see if we can get answers!

Back in 2017, Ray Ricky Riveria was working towards having his own brewery – Norwalk Brew House. Today, NBH is a reality, but not in the way you’d normally think. We examine how he’s partnering with breweries to grow his brand – one beer at a time. Who says you need to own shining metal tanks to have great beer?

We should call this a follow up episode because we’ve got a bunch of follow up to previous shows, including your feedback on the Brew Files water show and a chance to taste listener Ralph Rice’s Altbier that he sent in thanks to our Alt show. One of our own just won a big award! We also announce our next experiment before diving into the beer world, both new and old, including a cool new blend of hops from sponsor Yakima Chief Hops that we’re going to give away to the two challenge recipes we choose!

What happens when your pub chain wants a brewery but has no room? You make room! When Brian Herbertson joined the Simmzy’s group, that was his challenge. The answer – stick it on the second floor! Together we sit down and discuss just how you put a brewery on the second story, tackling supplying a whole chain with beer from one location and his spin on the summer’s new hit style – Brut IPA. We also get some great feedback on Speed Brewing and Drew butchers the Polish language, again. We cover punks in the news, alcohol in the industry, the British Museum, homebrew charity and answer your questions!

Denny’s back from New Zealand and boy, the stories he has to tell! And of course, we’re back to our usual format – thank you for sticking with us as we planned our way around absences and April Fool’s day. In this episode, we cover a rough few weeks in the beer world and some new guidelines for everyone to argue over, look at some lambic myths, Drew’s stupid brew day and Denny’s recap of the New Zealand Homebrewer’s Conference including their unique competition format before we hit the hop fields to learn some New Zealand hop secrets. All of that plus we answer your questions, hit you with a hot tip and hotter wings too!

In a first for the podcast, we have a guest interview. IGOR Eric Pierce brings us a conversation with John Wei of Brewlander & Co in Singapore. How did he get started with good beer? What does it take to find ingredients and why did make the job to go pro? Find out! We also sit down and cover the beer world – Hazy IPA going national, Drew’s quixotic LA quest, the notion of courtesy scoring and hey.. what’s that? Why yes, we’re announcing another experiment! Sit back and get ready to listen!
