Steal This Beer

Episode 371 - All About Beer is Back

Happy Monday, Thieves! We’re back from Miami this week and talking to some familiar folks. We’ve got Andy Crouch joining us to talk about the recent revamp of of All About Beer, a storied publication that’s been around longer than Sierra Nevada. Andy’s partner in the venture is none other than our very own John Holl. As you may recall, Holl was the editor of AAB for several years, back when this show originated. We talk to Andy & John about their hopes for the revamped brand and what kinds of stories they hope to bring to life with their new venture. Kennedy was very kind in the black glass this week, offering up a couple of warm weather crushers to keep things nice and civil. Tune in and let us know what you think!

From what it takes to put on a festival, to how he sees the evolution of brewing, this slightly boozy and frenzied conversation with Jonathan Wakefield really sums up our few days in Miami. Tune in and let us know what you think!

Happy Monday, Thieves! Our lobby of the Holiday Inn Miami shows continue with Andrew Godley of Parish Brewing in Louisiana.

New ideas are hatched, black glass beers are enjoyed, and general merriment is had has we somehow manage to get four shows recorded in a row without the rails coming off. We'd like a trophy please.

Episode 368 - Jared Welch, Southern Grist Brewing

Happy Monday, Thieves! This is episode three in our string of Miami/Wakefest shows… We love it when old beer shows up in the black glass and Jared Welch of Southern Grist in Nashville went deep into his cellar for a beauty of a beer that had us talking for longer than usual. From aging to speed brewing, and the general fuckery that comes with snow cones in beer, we had a blast in the hotel lobby with Jared and hope you enjoy listening.

Of course, Evan brings some treats and surprises for the black glass. Is one of them beer? That's still under debate. Tune in and let us know what you think!

We hope you enjoy listening to him as much as we enjoy talking to him. Tune in and let us know what you think!

Episode 363 - Agostino Arioli, Birrificio Italiano

Happy Monday, Thieves! We’re talking with Agostino Arioli of Italy’s Birrificio Italiano today. If you’ve been listening to the show for the last few years, you’ll know we’re all big fans of the so-called Italian Pils. Agostino happens to be the inventor of that style (not Kennedy, despite what Augie often claims!) so it we thought it would be fun to have him on the show given our international Zooming capabilities. Tune in and let us know what you think!

Episode 362 - The Gang Catches Up

Happy Monday, Thieves! The four of us spent yesterday morning catching up for this episode of STB. It had been a while since we’d gotten together sans guest, and it was fun to catch up with what everyone’s been up to. John and Casse talk about going back out in the world, Augie tells us about his favorite new hop blend, and Kennedy cracks open a thoroughly old school IPA brewed with…. coriander?! (You’ll never guess what brewery it’s from. Or maybe you will.) It was a fun, laid back show and we enjoyed recording it. Tune in and let us know what you think!
