Seismic Brewing:  It’s the Water, and a Whole Lot More

February 4, 2018 by Deano

As we settle in to what may be another year of below-average rainfall here in California, brewers need to be concerned about how far they stretch their local water supplies.  Not only for their own bottom-lines, but for the good of the planet. Brewing takes a LOT of water.  The average water-to-beer ratio is 7:1 — that is, every barrel of beer requires SEVEN barrels of water … [Read more...] about Seismic Brewing:  It’s the Water, and a Whole Lot More

Armistice’s Day

August 4, 2017 by Deano

Meat was smoking, music blaring, and beer finally flowing at Armistice Brewing Company’s recent soft opening party, to which yours truly was fortunate enough to snag an invite. It was quite amazing to note the transformation in the couple of months since my last visit, when they were well in the throes of construction.  The ladders, power tools, planks and dust have given … [Read more...] about Armistice’s Day

Masters of The Beerverse: Don Barkley

May 14, 2017 by Deano

I’m not one for hyperbole, but I’m a bit giddy these days because I just got to interview a craft brewing legend. Okay, he might think that a bit grandiose. How about pioneer? Trailblazer? Sherpa? Whatever, doesn’t matter. Don Barkley has been in the craft brewing game since before there was one, when he convinced Jack McAuliffe in the late 1970s he could use some help … [Read more...] about Masters of The Beerverse: Don Barkley
