Linking Up: Craft Beer & Golf
The link between golf and beer goes far beyond simply popping a top on the course. While each can be enjoyed in solitude, craft beer and golf also evoke a solid sense of community. As with any sport, there can be friendly competition. Post-game beers are often a traditional way to unwind, discuss the highs and lows, and celebrate victories.
“Craft beer is an expansive culture with a huge gradient of beers, breweries, and folks who enjoy all aspects of brewery culture. Golf is the same, with its athletes, enthusiasts, and fun seekers,” says Heather Kraemer, co-owner and co-founder at Kraemer & Kin, located on Alburg Golf Links in Vermont.… Read the rest “Linking Up: Craft Beer & Golf”

Meat & Malt: Beer Makes Burgers Better
All across the map, whether it’s Wisconsin’s indulgent butter burger, Minnesota’s cheese-stuffed Juicy Lucy, or the trendy Oklahoma smashburger, you’ll find shining examples of all-American hamburgers. But no matter how you stack it, the only accessory a burger needs is an ice cold beer.
With grilling season underway and Americans consuming an estimated 50 billion hamburgers annually, we talked with beverage directors at top burger restaurants to see what they’re excited about drinking this summer.
Since opening five years ago, Brooklyn’s Red Hook Tavern (RHT) has become a go-to for its seemingly simple, yet singular burger.… Read the rest “Meat & Malt: Beer Makes Burgers Better”

Pride in Their Craft: LGBTQIA+ Brewers Build Community
In 2024, craft beer is in a period of transition. Women, BIPOC, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community have smashed down barriers of entry in the industry, forming meet-up groups, advocacy initiatives, and, of course, breweries. There’s still a substantial amount of work to be done, but there has been encouraging progress.
A necessary milestone for the industry to hit is the day when brewers are no longer boxed in by their backgrounds and how they identify, but are simply acknowledged and appreciated for the beer they brew.
However, it’s always vital to recognize the incredible work LGBTQIA+ brewery owners and brewers are doing to get craft beer closer to being a meaningfully diverse industry.… Read the rest “Pride in Their Craft: LGBTQIA+ Brewers Build Community”
Tupearelo Pear Mead
Clean and sanitize all equipment before making mead. Mix 5.1 lb. (2.31 kg) honey, 6 qt. (5.68 L) pear juice, and enough spring water to reach 5 gal. Add pectic enzyme and nutrients. Because kveik yeast works so quickly at high temperatures (this mead finished in less than a week), treat the must as high YAN (yeast-assimilable nitrogen) and add all nutrients (i.e., do not stagger) before pitching yeast. Oxygenate (or stir vigorously) for about a minute prior to pitch. No starter was used, just pitch the pouch. This mead was fermented in a bucket wrapped in a honey warming blanket.… Read the rest “Tupearelo Pear Mead”
French Twist: Colorado’s Outer Range Opens Outpost in Alps
In 2016, two Army veterans, Lee and Emily Cleghorn, found a new purpose in beer at the heart of the Rockies in Frisco, Colorado.
Eight years later, Outer Range Brewing Co. is renowned for its IPAs and outdoor spirit. It was no surprise when its founders decided to open another brewery—but choosing to do it 5,000 miles from home, in the French Alps, made quite the impression.
“Lots of breweries are opening second locations in Colorado because the license allows it. But we’re Outer Range—we’re not going to open another place down the street,” Emily says, reminiscing about the time when Frisco was already seen as a bold choice to start their business.… Read the rest “French Twist: Colorado’s Outer Range Opens Outpost in Alps”
