They brought with them a typically gnomic idea: why not co-create a totally new beer to bridge both farmsteads across the Atlantic Ocean? The beer happily evolved through multiple pilot brews and tastings, resulting in a strong Belgian Golden Ale using Chouffe yeast in the primary fermentation and Ommegang yeast in the secondary. The lushly fruity and spicy yeast is a signature found in every Chouffe beer, and the combination of their yeast, our brewing skills, and our own yeast yielded a unique, flavorful, and aromatic dose of brewing magic. The beer was deemed a big success by Chouffe gnomes and Ommegang alike, was christened Gnomegang, and went into commercial production as a Limited Edition Ommegang ale for sale beginning in the second quarter of 2011. <P>In appearance, Gnomegang is a rich, translucent gold, with a big, fluffy white head. The high-carbonation is readily apparent. The nose focuses on distinctive clove aromas, combined with yeasty fruitiness typical of Chouffe beers. Flavors include ripe fruit, clove, light caramel, non-cloying candy sweetness, smooth maltiness, and well-balanced hopping. Mouthfeel offers a big, round body with full, fine carbonation. The finish is dry and warming, lingering gracefully.</P><P>Gnomegang is available in 750ML corked bottles and 1/6 barrels. It is available all across the US, and ships beginning early March for sales beginning late March to early April. </P><P>Gnomegang Specs: <BR>Style: Belgian-style Strong Blonde Ale<BR>Malts: Pilsner, Carapils, Flaked Oats, flaked Red Wheat, Special B<BR>Hops: two Styrian Golding varieties, hopped 3 times<BR>Spices: none<BR>Sugar: yes<BR>Yeast: Chouffe yeast in primary fermentation, Ommegang yeast in bottle conditioning<BR>OG: 19.9 o Plato<BR>FG: 2.9 o Plato<BR>ABV: 9.5% abv<BR>IBU: 19<BR>750 ml bottle: Bottle-conditioned with Ommegang house yeast<BR>1/6 bbl keg: Forced-carbonation</P><P>Brewery Ommegang opened in 1997 to craft-brew fine Belgian-style ales. The brewery creates six ales year-round as well as an extensive range of limited edition ales. The beers have won national following by connoisseurs of fine beer and are distributed in over forty states. Ommegang production and sales continue to grow rapidly and the company is in the process of significant physical expansion to meet growing demand. The brewery is located on a 140-acre farmstead in Cooperstown, New York and offers free daily tours and tastings, as well as a well-stocked brewery store and an online store. Ommegang is open every day of the year except for Christmas Eve day, Christmas Day, Thanksgiving Day, and New Year's Day. For more info, contact info@ommegang.com, call 1-800-544-1809, or visit www.ommegang.com. Ommegang is a member of the Duvel family of fine beers. </P><P>###</P><P><B>Jason</B><BR>Founder & Chief Executive Advocate<BR>BeerAdvocate</P><P><B>Post a Comment</B> | Permalink | <B>Comments [12]

Brewing Announces Launch Of Koko Brown Ale On Feb 21st <BODY readability="0"><P><IMG border=0 alt="photo of Jason" src="/Jason.jpg" width=75 height=75>Kailua-Kona, HI (February 2011) - Kona Brewing has announced it will be bringing Koko Brown Ale to market, the first new beer available on the mainland from the brewer since 2007, and the third launch in Kona Brewing's Aloha Series. Koko Brown Ale's nutty aroma and flavor comes from real toasted coconut brewed into each batch. It was first tapped at Kona's Kailua-Kona pub in the summer of 2009 under the name Coco Loco. Brewmaster Rich Tucciarone lists Koko Brown's best food pairings as those with coconutty and caramelly ingredients, such as Thai curries, coconut rice, caramelized roast turkey and chocolate dipped macaroons, as well as aged cheeses, barbecued meats and carne asada. Koko Brown Ale will be available in west coast markets February 21 through May 1, 2011. <P>More notes on Koko Brown Ale:</P><P>* Dried, toasted coconut is added to the mash resulting in a pleasant nutty aroma and <BR>flavor.<BR>* Deep amber with rich mahogany hues. Distinctive and pronounced toasted coconut<BR>aroma. Toffee and nutty coconut flavor is complemented by the mildly roasty Victory and Munich malts.<BR>* Malt: Premium 2-Row, Victory, Carapils, Munich, Chocolate<BR>* Hops: Cascade, Willamette, Warrior, Millennium<BR>* Original Gravity (OG): 13.3 P<BR>* Alcohol by Volume: 5.5%<BR>* IBU: 28<BR>* Extras: toasted coconut chips.</P><P>The vintage artwork on Koko's bottle and packaging depicts a stand-up paddler on the calm waters of Maunalua Bay, in the shadow of Koko Head and Koko Crater. Stand up paddling (SUP), or hoe he'e nalu, is one of the fastest growing recreational sports in the world. Paddling served as the ancient Hawaiians' mode of solo transport in visiting remote villages and fishing grounds, and today, SUP competitions often launch at the docks below Kona Brewing's Koko Marina pub. Kona Brewing sponsors a number of SUP competitions including Battle of the Paddle and Maui Jim Surf Monkey, as well as brand ambassadors Jenny Kalmbach and shaper Tom Pokahu Stone.</P><P>The 3rd in the Aloha Series, Koko Brown joins Wailua Wheat and Pipeline Porter in the Kona Brewing Company lineup. It will be available in 12 ounce bottles and draught February 21 through May 1, 2011 in the west coast states of Hawaii, Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Nevada, California, ? Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico.</P><P>About Kona Brewing<BR>Kona Brewing Company was started in the spring of 1994 by father and son team Cameron Healy and Spoon Khalsa, who had a dream to create fresh, local island brews made with spirit, passion and quality. It is a Hawaii-born and Hawaii-based craft brewery that prides itself on brewing the freshest beer of exceptional quality, closest to market. This helps to minimize its carbon footprint by reducing shipping of raw materials, finished beer and wasteful packaging materials. The brewery is headquartered where it began, in Kailua-Kona on Hawaii's Big Island. It has grown into Hawaii's largest brewery, has three restaurant sites in Hawaii and beer distribution reaching 28 states and Japan. It is the 13th largest craft brewery in the country.

This big and hoppy brew releases on draft and in 22 ounce bottles in early March in the 10 western states. <P>First brewed as part of Alaskan's Rough Draft series of experimental draft only brews, this imperial IPA is better known to draft fans in Alaska as "Alaskan XTRATUF? IPA." The brew owes its original namesake to the iconic brown, neoprene XTRATUF boots, which are a springtime footwear staple everywhere from fishing boats to formal affairs in coastal Alaska and in brewhouses across the country. Alaskan Imperial IPA features the robust flavors of Pacific Northwest hops over a sturdy malt body, and as the name suggests, the same "XTRATUF" qualities as these "Alaska Sneakers."</P><P>"It's a continuation of our focus on balance and complexity," says production assistant Brian Ross of Alaskan's new Imperial IPA release. "We didn't want to just focus on one hop varietal. The balance between the three big flavors - northwest hops, malt and alcohol - is almost seductive, making it a surprisingly fresh and drinkable brew."</P><P>Alaskan Imperial IPA is richly gold in color with the aroma of tangerine, lychee and other citrus over the toasted sweetness of crystal malt. The deep green flavors of Chinook and Amarillo hops partner with the fresh bitterness of Centennials for a complex hop profile.</P><P>Other members of the specialty Pilot Series include Alaskan's Double Black IPA, award-winning Barley Wine and Raspberry Wheat, which will make another appearance this summer. Alaskan Raspberry Wheat will be followed by Alaskan's to-be-announced anniversary ale in celebration of the brewery's 25 years of brewing in Alaska.</P><P>About Alaskan Brewing Co.<BR>Alaskan Brewing Co. has been making award-winning beer in Juneau, Alaska, since 1986. The Alaskan Brew Crew bottles the unique character of the Last Frontier with historic recipes, local ingredients and glacier-fed water. Alaskan Brewing handcrafts Amber, Pale, White, IPA, Stout, Smoked Porter, Winter Ale, Summer Ale and a variety of limited edition beers in the Alaskan Pilot Series. Visit www.alaskanbeer.com.</P><P>About XTRATUF Boots<BR>Since the 1960s, XTRATUF has delivered performance and quality using its 100 percent waterproof construction. XTRATUF's triple-dipped coating of neoprene creates a seamless package that is impervious to many organic & inorganic acids, chemicals and contaminants. Initially developed for fisherman on the West Coast, this boot is now widely used in many corners of the United States and Canada due to its durability and comfort.

One in three adults has some form of heart/cardiovascular disease. Many of these deaths and risk factors are preventable and food choices have a big impact on your heart's health, even if you have other risk factors.</P><P>Moderate consumption of any alcoholic beverage, including beer, has been shown to increase HDL cholesterol, lower LDL cholesterol and reduce the risk of blood clotting, Giancoli writes in ADA Times. Moderate alcohol consumption has also been associated with a lower incidence of gallstones, decreased risk of type 2 diabetes and improved cognitive function in older adults.</P><P>"Beer specifically has been associated with additional health outcomes, including lowering the risk of kidney stones in men compared to other alcoholic beverages, possibly due to its high water content and diuretic effect," Giancoli writes. "Compounds in hops may also slow the release of calcium from bone that is implicated in kidney stones. Additionally, beer drinkers seem to have a more protective effect towards greater bone mineral density due to the high content of silicone in beer."</P><P>Like wine, beer is fat free. Carbohydrates, which make up about one-third of the calories in beer, mostly come from partially broken down starch. Protein, which is nearly non-existent in wine, is present in small amounts in beer - about 4 percent of the total calories.</P><P>Most beers are between 3 percent and 6 percent alcohol by volume, although some beers can contain as much as 10 percent alcohol, "and some are much higher." Giancoli writes. "Wines are between 12 percent and 14 percent ABV. Because the average beer has a lower ABV and more than two and half times as much water, it contributes to fluid intake more so than wine."</P><P>It's a common myth that, the darker the beer, the higher the alcohol content, Giancoli writes. "In fact, what affects a beer's color is whether dark malts are used, and alcohol depends on the amount of sugar in the wort."</P><P>Although the USDA Nutrient Database lists beer's fiber content as zero grams recent studies have shown lager contains up to 2 grams of soluble fiber per liter, while dark beers can contain up to 3.5 grams. "Although wine and beer are neck-and-neck when it comes to mineral composition, each providing some potassium, magnesium, phosphorus and fluoride (the latter presumably contributed through the water source), beer is the winner when it comes to selenium and silicon," Giancoli writes.</P><P>"While nutrient analyses refer to an average 'regular beer,' there are more than 100 different categories of beer - and the brewing process, ingredients and proportions used can influence the nutritional content of each."</P><P>"Whether you're exploring the cultural roots of an ancient beverage, expanding your culinary prowess, supporting a local brewer or just enjoying a cold one," says Giancoli, "remember that moderate consumption means one 12-ounce beer per day for women and two for men." </P><P> http://www.eatright.org/Media/cont ... 6442462410 </P><P><B>Jason</B><BR>Founder & Chief Executive Advocate<BR>BeerAdvocate</P><P><B>Post a Comment</B> | Permalink | <B>Comments [11] Views [2964]</B></P><BR></P><br /><p><a href="http://beeradvocate.com/news/3554991" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">View the original article here</a></p>cool11http://www.blogger.com/profile/05336286501066870038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585919958435127632.post-11159129449631077862011-03-18T04:53:00.000-07:002011-03-18T04:53:00.150-07:00Utopias 2011 Batch (Release Info) <BODY readability="0"><P><BR>Posted by: <B>Todd</B> on Monday - February 21, 2011 - 20:25 UTC<BR>Topic Origin: Beer Releases<IMG border=0 alt="photo of Todd" src="/Todd.jpg" width=75 height=75>Just in: Utopias 2011 batch. http://yfrog.com/hsq8wtpj <P>Press release highlighted the fact that it's blended w/ beer aged in Spanish sherry & Portuguese port bbls.</P><P>Released in May to select specialty stores.

"Brew Minions", viewable at http://www.vimeo.com/20604077 , is a parody of the Discovery Channel's recent series "Brew Masters", featuring Sam Calagione and Dogfish Head Brewery. </P><P>Brew Minions follows Dave and his team as they flawlessly execute a project to make a 30th Anniversary beer for the long-running NYC Ska band The Toasters. Along the way they cross high mountain passes and travel almost across town, pioneer techniques to produce beers (and short films) of questionable originality, and ignore advice from Sam himself, who makes a cameo, but was otherwise not harmed in the making of this video.</P><P>From Rainbo Bread to bagels to bits of British bees, Dave is constantly pushing his team and himself to keep going, even though it's not clear that anyone, including the Toasters, wants them to. The imagination of the Ska Brewing team is matched only by their obliviousness, which they wear like a badge. Attending beer conferences with Sam, glamorous product launches with rock stars, ripping off ideas and making toast, it's all in a days work for Brew Minions. </P><P>"It's easy to make fun of ourselves," said Dave Thibodeau, Ska Co-Founder and President. "It's hard to make a video that makes fun of us though, even a short one. It was supposed to be short. And it's expensive. If anyone thinks this is funny they owe us." </P><P>"Brew Minions" was written, directed and produced by Ska Brewing Co. and Marc Snider / Exposure Productions in Durango, Colorado. The post-credit video was produced by Red Tettemer and Partners.</P><P>About Ska Brewing</P><P>Based in Durango, Colorado, Ska Brewing was founded in 1995 and now produces over a dozen award-winning beers including the Pinstripe Red Ale, True Blonde Ale and Steel Toe Stout. Three Ska beers are now widely available in cans: ESB Special Ale, True Blonde, and Modus Hoperandi IPA. For information, music and a good time, visit www.skabrewing.com.
