- GBM 134 - Flavour Logic and the Australian Beer Experience with Briony Liebich
Why does beer flavor matter so much? I mean, as long as it tastes good, what else is important? Can we actually get a sense of place through flavor? My next guest seems to think so and is here to share this, and Australian culture through the flavor of beer.
In his book “Tasting Beer”, Randy Mosher tells us, “Like any aspect of a consciously lived life, enjoying beer to the fullest takes education, experience, and a proper frame of mind.” That’s why educators like Briony are so important. Without them, a beer is just a beer, which would be a shame, because it is so much more.
We find great experiences at the intersection of craft and culture. These are the stories of us, of great food and the beer that brings it all together. For the Craft and Culture of Beer, this is episode 134 of Good Beer Matters with Certified Cicerone® and Sensory Analyst, Briony Liebich.

59 min - GBM 133 - The Tradition of Scottish Craft Beer, with Catherine Maxwell Stuart of Traquair House
Do you ever wonder what beer 100 years ago tasted like? What if you lived in an old Scottish castle and discovered a long-lost brewery on the premise? As far-fetched as this sounds, my next guest is here to share this experience and the blast from the past she produces for the rest of us.
New beer is exciting. And, I’m a big proponent of constant improvement. But some things have already been perfected. I believe that when we revisit some of these beers and classic styles from the past, it will give us a better idea of where we ought to go in the future.

1 hr 7 min - GBM 132 - Fermentation, Craft Beer and France, with Hugo Picard
The imaginary wine line separates beer regions from wine regions, and it goes right through the middle of France. Yet somehow we think of the French as wine lovers who sometimes drink beer. My next guest is here to set the record straight and share the French beer culture with the rest of the world.
French Cuisine is world-renowned and sets the standard for what an elevated cuisine experience can be. Doesn’t it make sense that if we apply the same mentality to beer that something extra special is bound to happen? I urge you, next time you have French cuisine, skip the wine and order the beer. Let me know how it goes.

1 hr 11 min - GBM 131 - Beer Culture in Southeast Asia, with Chris Roberts of Heart of Darkness Brewery
For years, I’ve heard about South East Asia as a place where one could live well for dollars a day, where the life people dream of is actually tangible. What began as an interrupted conversation about diving and life as an expatriate, took a turn into the heart of darkness to find craft beer in Southeast Asia.
What do you think about when it comes to Southeast Asia? I’ve never been, but I’ll admit that craft beer doesn’t come to mind for me. However, that’s all changing. For those who love to dive, love the food and the people, now we’ll have a good beer to pair with all of it.

1 hr 6 min - GBM 130 - A Taste of Brazil, with Beer Sommelier, Priscilla Colares
Brazil is one of the largest countries in the world with cultural and environmental diversity to match. So why don’t we talk more about Brazilian Beer? My next guest is a Beer educator and she wants to change the way we think about Brazil within the world of beer.
We can see Brazil’s influence on the world through movies, music, sports and more. It was only a matter of time before we started to see beer that was uniquely Brazilian to emerge. Given that this country has such a global impact, what’s next, I wonder.

1 hr 13 min - GBM 129 - The Value of Higher Beer Education, with Advanced Cicerone’s and Beer Scholar Team, Chris Cohen and Scott Fielder
We recently finished off graduation season, and speakers at these ceremonies often talk about education as the doorway to better opportunities and experiences. Is this also true in beer? Does a higher beer education deliver on the promise of opportunity and experience? My next guests and I discuss this question and how we’re trying to answer it.
If you ask me, the models have been proven and the signs are there that better beer education is the path to better experiences and better revenue. Just like getting an advanced degree from a university, the diploma is not the end but just the beginning of something better.

1 hr 20 min - GBM 128 - A New Experience With The Oldest Brewery, with Matthias Ebner of Weihenstephan
To get the full Bavarian Beer experience, I find it helpful to go back a thousand years. Without a time machine, we’ll have to visit a brewery nearly as old. My next guest tells us the story of the incredible beer ecosystem that exists just north of Munich in the world’s oldest brewery.
I think it’s fair to say that any brewery with a school and a thousand-year history is one we can take leadership from. If Weihenstephan values being present, being patient, and focuses on quality and culture, then maybe we should give those a second thought as well, don’t you think?

1 hr 18 min - GBM 127 - Crafting the Dutch Beer Culture, with Michiel Anema of All Kinds of Beers
Once upon a time, American brewers traveled to Europe, rediscovered beer, and became inspired. They came home and started the craft beer revolution, disrupting the homogenous macro brew industry. Approximately 30 years later they returned the favor. My next guest tells his story of infusing American Craft into the Dutch beer culture.
It never ceases to amaze me that beer culture is a global thing. As different as we are, we’re still very much alike. But, while trends spread across the planet, those differences inspire us to keep beer interesting and new. I would argue that it’s these differences that connect us together.

58 min - GBM 126 - Crafting the “Pura Vida” Beer Experience, with Matthew Greenberg of Cerveceros Del Mar
It’s a dream, to spend the day doing the activities you love with the people you love. Then, cap it all off with a great conversation, a meal, and a very good beer. My next guest tells the story of his pursuit of this dream and creating this experience for his guests.
The joy of the Pura Vida, or the good life, is sometimes just out of reach. In our fast-paced societies, I believe we need to find ways to cultivate more it. Slowing down enough to taste good food and great beer, and to share it with loved ones is the way.
These are the stories of us, of great food and the beer that brings it all together.

1 hr - GBM 125 - Crafting Beer Culture in the Middle East, with Chad McGehee of Side Hustle Brews
The middle of a desert may be the last place you’d find a brewery, but it's the best place to find a drink. Except, in this desert, there is a vast mix of cultures, affluence, and a complicated relationship with alcohol. My next guest has navigated through the challenges to create a brewery with a taste of the Middle East.
If beer is a representation of culture, can we rely on beer to be the ambassador between cultures? Can the fusion of flavors guide our way as we find a peaceful and joy-filled existence? This may be too much to ask of a beer, but I’m grateful for breweries like Side Hustle for giving us hope.
