  • The Role of Geology in the Fall and Rise of Local Brewing Alex Maltman Abstract
    The role of geology in the fall and rise of local brewing Alex Maltman Abstract. Beer has an ancient heritage and brewing was almost ubiquitous by the Middle Ages in the British Isles. It later became progressively more regional. The East Midlands had good waters, and barley from both the sandy soils on the Sherwood Sandstone and the fertile, clayey soils on the Lower Jurassic of the Vale of Belvoir. Hops were grown in the heavy soils on Mercia Mudstone of the ‘North Clays’ district, and Nottingham’s sandstone caves provided ideal storage conditions for the beer. Subsequently the water, especially at Burton upon Trent, proved ideal for the newly fashionable pale ale or bitter. Gypsiferous Triassic aquifers gave the water a perfect ionic balance for this style of beer. Moreover, the calcium sulphate allowed high hopping rates, and hence the development of the Export and India Pale Ale styles, now of international fame. By the 20th century, brewing science had showed how Burton waters could be emulated elsewhere, and the brewing industry became highly commercialised and centralised. The craft beer movement is now heralding a return to local values, including the importance of local ingredients, some of which show a geological influence. Beer is often seen as the simple quaffing drink of the beer for sale (Unger, 2005). Beer was drunk with every masses, a contrast with the sophistication of wine. In meal: the consumption was something like two pints fact, in many ways beer is the more complex drink of every day, per person. Incidentally, the brewing was the two.

Purinton to The Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the field of History Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts August 2016 1 Empire in a Bottle: Commodities, Culture, and the Consumption of Pilsner Beer in the British Empire, c.1870-1914 by Malcolm F. Purinton Abstract of Dissertation Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University August, 2016 2 Abstract The Pilsner-style beer is the most popular and widespread beer style in the world with local variants and global brands all competing in marketplaces from Asia to Africa to the Americas. Yet no one has ever examined why this beer and not another was able to capture the global market for malt beverages. This is important from the point of view of the study of beer as a commodity, but its greater importance is in the way the spread of the Pilsner style serves as a visible, traceable marker for the changes wrought by globalization in an age of empire. Its spread was dependent not only on technological innovations and faster transportation, but also on the increased connectedness of the world, and on the political structures like empires that dominated the world at the time. Drawing upon a wide range of archival sources from Great Britain, Germany, Ireland, and South Africa, this study traces the spread in consumption and production of the Pilsner in the British Empire between 1870 and 1914.

WILD FERMENTATIONS BY MICHAEL TONSMEIRE & AT HOME MATT HUMBARD remember several years ago Jean Van Roy at Cantillon telling me, ‘You can spontaneously ferment “I in the United States, but, keep in mind that it probably won’t be the same way we do it here. You might have to come up with your own program.’ In the case of Allagash they’ve pretty much been able to copy how it is done in Belgium and they are getting amazing/similar results as our friends in Belgium. For us, we’ve had to come up with a couple of hybrid methods to make it happen.” – Vinnie Cilurzo, Brewmaster and Co-Owner of Russian River Brewing Co. Out of all of the ways to sour a beer, the most romantic is to let the fresh wort ensnare wild yeast and bacteria from the air as it slowly cools. People often refer to Brettanomyces as “wild yeast,” but the truth is that the strains most brewers pitch have been selected, isolated, and The coolship at Cantillon, where hot wort is pumped to cool and pick up ambient yeast and microbial flora in the air of Brussels, Belgium. propagated and are no longer truly wild.

With a name inspired by an icon of the 1950s working class, Steam Whistle has an affinity for retro style, from their brewery location to their delivery trucks. Elmira Stove Works has been manufacturing vintage-styled appliances in Canada since 1975 and the Elmira Northstar refrigerator was a fitting choice to store Steam Whistle Brewing’s pilsner. Steam Whistle has always used antique fridges in its brewery, hoping to complete their retro brewery with a vintage refrigerator. However, the compressor systems in antique fridges were not up to date and the fridges were using far too much energy for eco-minded Steam Whistle Brewing. For this reason, Steam Whistle chose the Elmira Northstar. “The partnership with Elmira Stove Works has been ideal, as Elmira’s Northstar combines the retro imagery we were looking for with better quality and convenience,” commented Greg Taylor, co-owner of Steam Whistle Brewing. “Both companies share a commitment to quality construction and retro appeal, understanding that consumers have an appreciation of hard work and simple pleasures.” Elmira’s Northstar appliance line offers 1950s inspired appliances, including ranges, microwaves and refrigerators.
