Beer Podcast Day – New Glarus Brewing Co. Podcast with Dan Carey

The CIA recently launched a podcast and an even better brewing institution has one too, New Glarus Brewing is streaming.

I listened to the Oktoberfest and wheat beer episodes and found them to be a good dip into Dan Carey’s mind and the mindset at New Glarus.  I am glad that the podcast tackles one style per show and secondly that the shows are thirty minutes.

I am not a huge fan of the questions.  They ramble a bit and bounce around a bit much but Carey like his brewing can make magic even with not the best questions. It ends up being a good mix of beer talk and stories about the brewery.

The best thing I can say is that I really want a Spotted Cow right now.

Christmas Beer 2019 # 13 – New Glarus Snowshoe Amber

Amber ales are not normally seen and Irish Ambers even more rare but the famous New Glarus Brewing Co. has a Snowshoe for you. They describe the beer as, “brewed with a blend of American and German malts. We also infuse generous amounts of hops from Slovenia and the Great Pacific Northwest to add a special note of warmth for your winter evening’s enjoyment.

Expect this beer to be a beautiful copper-red, with a fruity ale body and a spiced hop finish.”
