  • Bierhall “A Little of Austria, a Lot of Vermont” ®
    Brewing Bierhall “A little of Austria, a lot of Vermont” ® The History of the von Trapp Family The Story Behind the Story After fleeing Austria in 1938, our family toured the world as the Trapp Family Singers. The mountains of Vermont were reminiscent of Austria, and we bought our hilltop farm here in 1942. In 1950 we began hosting skiers during the winter, and the family home evolved into the Trapp Family Lodge. In the late 1960s I returned to manage the hotel with my mother Maria. We created the first commercial cross-country ski resort in the Americas in 1968, and began adding to the family's land holdings. After a fire destroyed the original Lodge in 1980, we built the new hotel, re-opening in 1983. Today the Trapp Family Lodge has 2,500 acres that provide world- class cross country skiing, mountain biking, hiking, and serenity in one of the most beautiful locations in Vermont. Our resort is still owned and managed by my children and me. For decades I dreamed of brewing crisp, clean craft lagers like the ones we tasted on trips back to Austria. In 2010, we opened our first humble brewery in a retrofitted bakery, and the response to our beer was tremendous. We built a new innovative brewery, with a Rolec brewhouse from Bavaria, and now distribute our beer throughout the northeast. Our beers have won multiple awards, and have helped drive the return of craft-brewed lagers in the United States. We hope you enjoy our beer, and your experience here at the Trapp Family Lodge.

  • Blackcurrant Berliner Weisse Beer Was Inaugurated in Poland in Mid-July
    Blackcurrant growers have started collaborating with craft brewers in Poland SALAMANDER Blackcurrant Berliner Weisse beer was inaugurated in Poland in mid-July. The beer is a mix of a traditional, historical style - a clear, acidic, light and refreshing Berliner Weisse, fermented with lactic acid bacteria, with an addition of blackcurrants. The beer is the outcome of collaboration between the National Blackcurrant Growers Association (KSPCP) and Browar Stu Mostów brewery. For the first time in Poland, the project joins the forces of a trade organization of producers and a craft brewery. The aim is to promote the potential of collaboration between brewers and growers. “This is a meeting of two powerful industries. Together we can do interesting things, make interesting beers that will delight gourmet palates in Poland and abroad. By joining forces, we can develop a product that nobody else can make” says Jakub Ośródek of the National Blackcurrant Growers Association. “In addition to the colour, the flavour and the aroma, blackcurrant also adds extra acidity. Beers of this kind are gaining popularity, with the Berliner Weisse style going through a real revival. This is a trend we should take advantage of” claims Mateusz Gulej, Chief Brewer of the Browar Stu Mostów brewery. “Talented brewers and competent fruit growers are already the trademark feature of Polish exports. Craft beer is a good partner for currants and berries” sums up Piotr Baryła, the President of the National Blackcurrant Growers Association. “There are already over 150 craft breweries in Poland, and soon there will be 200. Let's work together. Craft brewing needs top quality fruit and competence in the selection of varieties” say Arletta and Grzegorz Ziemian, founders of the first craft brewery in Wrocław for many years.

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.
