Brewing TV #63: Dogfish Head Craft Brewery

Like kids to a candy store, Brewing TV finally makes the pilgrimage to the World of Dogfish Head, its mothership brewery in Milton, DE and the O.G. brewpub in Rehoboth Beach. Join BTV as we learn about Dogfish Head’s homebrew-scale Small Batch Brewing program and see how the ideas behind small-batch experimental brewing influence the brewery’s large-scale commercial releases. Off-Centered brew for all! [See THIS LINK for Jake’s full conversation with Sam Calagione]

Brewing TV #61: BTV Birthday Bash

Brewing TV turns two years old in proper style – brewing a beer! Jake, Mike, Chip and the brew dogs gather to make Keeler’s Reverse Burster Altbier. During the brew session, we look back on two years of BTV production. We also field some FAQs from our fans. There’s even a contest and a birthday present for our viewers. Wrap it up and put a pretty bow on it, we’re having a birthday party!

Brewing TV #57: Snow Day in Denver

What happens when three Minnesotans are “snowed-in” during a roadtrip to Denver? SNOW DAY! Brewing TV is forced to abandon plans for one episode — but salvage a day in Denver with visits to Denver Beer Company, Great Divide Brewing Company, and our first distillery Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey. And we sit down for a chat with beer writer Ed Sealover. Let’s hope we see more beer-friendly laws here in Minnesota that allow for a thriving taproom scene similar to this!

PS – this episode is followed by two hardcore homebrewing episodes back home in the Twin Cities. Get your fermentors sanitized and ready for it!

Brewing TV #56 – Dry Dock Brewing Company

Talk about a brewery with a close ties to the homebrewing community – Dry Dock grew out of small homebrew shop to become one of the country’s most awarded small breweries. Find out what makes this place so special as BTV rides along for a brew day and Dawson puts our Pro Series beer kits up against Dry Dock’s commercial beers. Beware: Epicness ensues.
