Right in the heart of Bruges, Belgium sits Brewery De Halve Maan, meaning 'the half moon'. Since 1856, six generations of the same family have made their mark on what is now the taste of Bruges! Rooted in tradition and respect for brewing culture, they keep on innovating too, and sustainability is key, so that future generations can keep on enjoying their beers. 

Steve Snauwaert, Export Director for De Halve Maan joins Derrick and Jonathan for this episode. Steve just happened to be in the States at the time!

The De Halve Maan brewery has weathered the storm for five centuries, and is now the only brewery in Bruges (there was once many, many more). Just wait until you hear all about their beer pipeline! 

Cheers!

Beer flavored beer. Sticking with traditional beer styles. That's Turtle Stack Brewery in La Crosse, WI.

A small independent craft brewery and tasting room, Turtle Stack is located in historic downtown La Crosse, directly across from the La Crosse Center and Radisson Hotel. Turtle Stack produces high quality local beer for residents of La Crosse and surrounding communities as well as visitors to the upper Mississippi River Valley - the taproom is in fact just steps from the Mighty Mississippi and waterfront district. 

Owner and founder, Brent, joins Jonathan for this live show in the taproom during the Wisconsin Governor's Conference on Tourism! Sales Manager, Eric, also joins us to talk about where Turtle Stack beer is located outside of the taproom (hint: they do can some of their beers now so you can take them to-go from the taproom too!).

Whether you're a local or visiting beautiful La Crosse - sometimes known as the Driftless Region - stop in to Turtle Stack, say hi and try some of Brent's beers!

As Pour Another Round preps for our 3rd Annual Pour Another Round Outdoor Winter Beer Fest, Derrick and Jonathan had a chance to visit brew day at both Karben4 Brewing in Madison, WI and MoonRidge Brewing Company in Cornell, WI. 

Joe from Karben4 worked us hard as we brewed a Maple Scottish Ale that will be poured for guests at the Beer Fest! Derrick has decided he'll stick to drinking the beer and isn't going into brewing professionally any time soon.

At MoonRidge, we were excited to hear from Nick what beers he's prepping for the Beer Fest. If you're in the Cornell area, MoonRidge has bus tickets for sale to hitch a ride to the Pour Another Round Beer Fest in Green Bay! Tickets include MoonRidge beer on bus, event admission ticket (priced at $40), tip for driver. 

Grab a beer, settle in and pour another round with us and these two fantastic Wisconsin breweries!

Cheers!

Pour Another Round is back in Brussels, Belgium, visiting with Julien at WOLF Sharing Food Market and the microbrewery that exists there. Surrounded by a more upscale food court of sorts, the beer is brewed on-site, only 31 meters - about 101 feet for us American folk - from the bar where it's being poured.

While our tastebuds were drooling over the 17 different restaurant options, our conversation is still all about the beer that Julien is brewing at WOLF!

With WOLF's micro setup, they bring you the benefits of high-quality craft beers available only at WOLF, more environmentally friendly consumption, more sharing with customers and better control over purchases and products.

WOLF has a partnership with Belgoo Brewery, a craft brewery specialising in high fermentation and organic beers, and a handful of their beers are also available at WOLF.

Santé.

Have you heard of beer poking? Well Hop & Barrel from Hudson, WI brought beer poking to this year's event and carmalized their cookie beer for fest-goers! Justin gives us insight into the process and what poking it with a hot stick does to the beer.

Both Skeleton Crew Brew and Pearl Street Brewery offered exclusive beers to VIP ticket holders. Todd from Skeleton Crew Brew in Onalaska, WI tells us about the beers they brought, and gave us some details on exciting news coming out of their taproom!

Pour Another Round heads across the pond and visits with Yvan from Brasserie de la Senne in Brussels, Belgium. Yvan is a passionate brewer and brewery owner and brings you the Brussels People's Beer! 

In our very first episode from Belgium, Yvan talks with us about quality and the desire to always do better.  From the beginning, Brasserie de la Senne has brewed bitter beers - bitterness is the key characteristic of their beers. Why? They wanted to brew beers to their liking that could no longer be found on the market. 

You'll also find really solid low alcohol beers at Brasserie de la Senne (no N/As though!). The Taras Boulba (4.5%) is “the” beer for quenching your thirst and you still get amazing flavor!

Brasserie de la Senne takes great pride in being a local brewery and focused on the Brussels region through and through. Exports are limited, however, their beers are available in a dozen countries, with a leading presence in the United States, Italy and Japan.
