The beer is “a liquid expression of hometown pride,” according to Ron and Rick Chapman, owners of Coronado Brewing Co. “This is a solid beer from a top-notch brewery,” says Josh Peacock of Origlio Beverage. “Coronado helped build the West Coast land- scape for craft beer, developing flavor profiles that breweries na- tionwide look to replicate.” Peacock first tried the brewery’s flagship beer while bartending in Philadelphia. “We had a constant rotation of fantastic brews and Islander was always a favorite of mine… and it still is,” he says. “This beer is the pinnacle example of a West Coast IPA – huge hop bursts, piney bitterness, and enough of a punch to let you know you’re actually drinking a beer! There’s something about a West Coast IPA that excites my taste buds. Some IPAs have a softened hop character with a heavy malt backbone, diminishing the fla- vors that a West Coast-style seeks to achieve, while others are hop bombs, overwhelming to the point that no other characteristics shine through. Islander achieves a perfect balance of juicy, fruity lusciousness without an overbearing malt presence.” “For me, Islander is a beer that conjures up memories of summer months, drinking on the deck in the sun with the grill going and Sublime on the stereo,” says Peacock. “But I wouldn’t hesitate to crack one open around the fire pit in the fall, or reward myself with a sip or two after digging my car out of the snow. This beer is a great anytime choice.” With the surge in popularity of the IPA style, Peacock knows how easy it is to get caught up seeking the newest releases from the new- est breweries. “A new IPA is released every 10 minutes it seems, and craft drinkers suffer from A.D.D.,” he laughs. “Regardless of popularity or the fantastic taste of their beers, established breweries tend to slip people’s minds. Coronado Islander IPA should not be forgotten.” Coronado is known for their abundantly hoppy brews, but they offer other interesting beers to please all palates, like Hop Head Red, Orange Avenue Wit and their Crown Series that includes some of the coolest and most revered brews available – Sock Knocker, Skull Wrapper, and Punk’In Drublic, which according to Peacock is named after “one of the best albums ever written and a nod to their love of punk rock, which is right up my alley!” TOUR THE PASTAND TASTE THE PRESENT ATCHARLES FINKEL’S MICROBREWERY MUSEUM Prohibition was a dark time in the history of beer A collector at heart, Finkel curated his portfolio of imported beers and much of America’s beer memorabilia would by eschewing large corporate entities.

MAKING MEAD BY BRAD SMITH ead, which is a fermented beverage made from honey, is one of the oldest alcoholic M beverages. Vessels found in China dating back to 7000 B.C. have organic compounds consistent with fermented honey and rice. Mead was the revered “nectar of the gods” in ancient Greece and the “drink of kings” throughout history, though it has faded to obscurity in modern times. For homebrewers, mead is a great addition to complement your other fermented offerings. Many of your guests may have never tasted a good quality mead or melomel (fruit mead), but almost everyone enjoys this sweet beverage. Using some modern methods, mead is also relatively easy and quick to make, and you can use equipment you already have on hand for homebrewing. MODERN MEADMAKING TECHNIQUES When I started homebrewing back in 1987, the fermentation of mead was a very slow process, taking 12 to 18 Photo by Charles A. Parker/Images Plus Parker/Images A.

Between 1880 and 1920, these groups gained public interest in their own way. The liquor interests defended their industries against politicians, religious leaders, and social reformers, but ultimately failed. While current historical scholarship links the different liquor industries together, the beer industry constantly worked to distinguish itself from other alcoholic beverages.

  • HISTORY of BEER (Stolen from Papazian, Miller, Jackson and Others)
    HISTORY OF BEER (Stolen from Papazian, Miller, Jackson and others) You wouldn’t go into a restaurant and say, “I’ll have a plate of food, please”. People do not ask simply for "a glass of wine.” They’ll specify, at the very least, whether they would like red or white, and they usually order by style and vineyard. Yet these same discerning people often ask simply for “a beer” or perhaps a name brand without thinking about its suitability for the occasion or if the style compliments their meal. The similarities between wines and beers are far greater than their differences. Wines begin with fruits, usually grapes, while beers start with grain, usually barley. Both are made by fermentation and many of the flavor compounds, naturally formed, are shared between them. Distill wine and you have brandy, distill beer and you make whiskey. People who drink only the most conventional beers have failed to understand that there are different brews for each mood, moment or purpose. Before I get into the history of beer, it’s important that you know what beer is and how it’s made. So, very briefly, Beer is made from only four ingredients - 1) Water, 2) Barley, 3) Hops and 4) Yeast. The malted barley is slurried with warm water to form the "mash". This mash converts the barley’s starches to sugars. The sugar water is strained from the grain and brought to a boil. Hops are added to offset the sweetness (sort of like seasoning the beer). Yeast converts the sugars to alcohol and CO2 by fermentation.

U. Prereq: None. Jr. standing; satisfaction of OWC-A GER COURSE DESCRIPTION: Beer has been at the center of many movements in American history. Beer and brewing have been caught up in vast social upheavals including immigration, technological revolutions, urbanization and industrialization, changing family and gender roles, moral reform campaigns, evolving views on race and class, and changing ideas about place and connectivity. Beer has been a nutritionally vital home-brewed food staple, an anchor for community socialization, and a symbol of social identity. This course will use the history of beer and brewing as a means to chart many of the dramatic changes in American society.
