The Show

Over Beers is a Podcast focusing on conversations with craft beer industry professionals to give craft beer enthusiasts an insight in to their world. Geared toward people who may be new to craft beer, the goal of the conversations is to find out what set them on their path in craft beer, what inspires their work and how they see the future of their careers and the industry. One of the features of the show will be for the guest to recommend a beer or two, which we will drink during the podcast and talk about during the conversation. The tone of the show is a casual conversation, and the focus is on the guest.

I had the opportunity to sit down with Jeff and Jessie Greco to talk about how you open a brewery, get engaged and keep your full time job while you wear out a lane on the Garden State Parkway getting it all done. Plus make great beer at the same time!

I had the opportunity to sit down with Jim Barbiere head brewer of Two Ton Brewing in Kenilworth New Jersey.  We met in their downstairs “speakeasy” taproom a long with his father Doc the CFO, to talk about their journey to opening about two months ago.

After the show back in September on the ABC rule changes, when we had three breweries together on the show, I wanted to do another one where we had a few brewery owners but spoke about the beer, not the state rules.  So I asked each brewery to bring two beers so we could sit down and discuss what went in to the beer, why they brewed and how they felt about the beer. I think you’ll find it was a really interesting discussion and we had a lot of fun. Last Monday, I sat down with Mike from Bradley Brew Project, Kevin from Dark City and Pete from Jughandle to do just that.

Throughout history brewing and farming have always been tied together.  You brewed with ingredients that were nearby and for farmers that meant you brewed with what you grew yourself.  Today there is usually a space between where the grains are grown and where the beer is brewed.  That is not the case with Screamin’ Hill Brewery.  The brew house sits right on the farm, Owners Brett Bullock and Ryan Cole like to say “From Field To Glass”.  Where ever possible they use their own grown ingredients, whether it’s the grains to make their base malt or the pumpkins, tomatoes or basil used to flavor their beers. It’s grown right there.

Breweries in most places were traditionally in industrial sections of town.  When laws changed and they had the opportunity to open a tap room, they were created by carving out a section of the production brewery, putting in some taps, a bar and some stools.  Tap room opened.  For breweries that started after the law changes, the dynamic changed and they built their taprooms as the center piece.  Thought was given to how welcoming the space can be.  How will people feel when they visit.  It can be a place where people can be social with one another and generate a sense of community. That’s the feeling you will get when you visit Death of the Fox.  Plus there’s something different.  The smell of coffee greets you when you walk in.  In addition to being a brewery, Death of the Fox is also a coffee house.

A couple of weeks ago the show was at the Fir Farm’s Hop Harvest.  One of the places getting hops was Jughandle Brewing Company.  We talked about getting together for the release of the beer they were making with the picked hops and that is exactly what we did last Saturday.  Jughandle released Fir Coat, their harvest ale.

I knew that there was a rich history of brewing in the Northeast but I had no idea just how rich it was.  During his talk Rich Wagner mentioned that he had published a book, entitled “Philadelphia Beer” going through the history of brewing in Philadelphia. I knew I wanted to read it and I knew I wanted to have him on the podcast.

You can find his book “Philadephia Beer” on Amazon, check out his website pabreweryhistorians.tripod.com. The event on October 20th has been cancelled. Check out his website for other events in the future.

There’s the old saying is Blood is thicker than water…but is blood thicker than beer? That’s what I was looking to find out when I visited Fort Nonsense Brewing Company earlier in the summer. FNC is owned and operated by not just two, but three brothers.  Andrew, Thomas and James…the Aslanian Brothers.  They are brewing a variety of classic ales and lagers with their own unique twists and talk about those beers with only a hint of sibling rivalry during the conversation.

A few months ago I met Mickey and Bobby Clark owners of the Fir Farm.  Traditionally they’ve sold Christmas Trees, and they still do, but for the last few years they’ve also been growing hops right here in Central Jersey.  They invited me to their 2018 Hop Harvest in early August.

With the nature of the brewing business, it’s not uncommon for brewers to move around a good deal.  This is definitely the case for Patrick Morse, the Head Brewer of Staten Island’s Flagship Brewing.  His career has had him crossing the US a couple of times as he worked his way up the brewing ranks.

I’m always impressed by people who follow their passion.  That can be said for most brewery owners and brewers.  It’s not a business for people who really aren’t in to it. Passion is a term you can really use for the partners at Atco Brewing Company in Atco New Jersey.  These guys still have day jobs and work all hours of the day to get the beer out.

A few weeks ago I sat down with Barry Holsten, Chris Vaughn and Lea Ann Wood, part of the brewing team at Flying Fish, in their tap room for this episode of Over Beers. In 1995 Flying Fish was started by Gene Muller as the world’s first virtual brewery.  Shortly after it became a real brewery now located in Somerdale New Jersey and the largest craft brewery in the state.  Talking with the brewers was a lot of fun and gave a great insight to how the largest brewery is working  to innovate.

The Human Village Brewing Co. is the shared vision of Richard and Megan Myers. What began as brewing days, gathering family together to share time and love of craft, evolved into a passion project. With a strong concentration on European and lesser known beer styles, Richard and Megan emulate traditional brewing methods and continue the cultural heritage of handcrafting beer one small batch at a time.

In 1889 Yardley National Bank opened its doors on South Main Street in Yardley Pennsylvania.  An 8000 pound vault door was installed prior to the construction’s completion.  For the next 120 or so years the vault was used to hold only money.  In October 2012 the vault was converted to hold something much more precious, it became a beer cellar when the Vault Brewing Company opened its doors to the public.

Icarus and his father were imprisoned by King Minos of Crete within the walls of the Labyrinth his father created. But being a  great craftsman his father would not suffer captivity. He made two pairs of wings by adhering feathers to a wooden frame with wax. Giving one pair to his son, he cautioned him that flying too near the sun would cause the wax to melt. But Icarus became ecstatic with the ability to fly and forgot his father's warning and flew too close to the sun.  The wax melted, the feathers came loose and Icarus plunged to his death in the sea.  Centuries later, brewing occurred.

Dark City Brewing Company was the first brewery to open in Asbury Park.  Kevin Sharpe and his two partners opened in early 2016 and have been brewing some great beer since. The primary goal at DCBC is to craft beers that are unique and eccentric. Asbury Park is a very creative community, it always has been, which is one of the many reasons they love calling it home. This city is bursting at the seams with innovative cuisines, music, art galleries galore and so much more. Their tasting room is a shrine for local creativity in every form. The rotating local art wall, the mural wall, the beers themselves. Everything.
