Dunedin’s Mobile Brewhouse On Wheels

January 4, 2014 By Jay Brooks

road-trips
My friend and colleague, Gerard Walen, has an interesting story on CraftBeer.com about a mobile brewery that drove from Florida to Oregon. In Collaboration On the FL-ORegon Trail, Walen details the rolling brewery built by the Dunedin Brewery and its journey to Oregon, and then on to Denver for GABF. Check it out. Gerard can normally be found on Road Trips For Beer, and recently finished the Florida Breweries book in the same series as my northern California guidebook, which will be published this April.

Time-Lapse Bigfoot Fermentation

January 3, 2014 By Jay Brooks

sierra-nevada
Here’s a very cool video of Sierra Nevada’s annual Bigfoot Barleywine Style Ale being brewed in open fermenters. The video shows 12,400 gallons of barley wine fermenting “over six days in four traditional open fermenters.”

First made in 1983, Bigfoot has been released every February since, and will again be much easier to find than the real Bigfoot this coming February, as well.

brookston-film
This year I decided to feature a new video about beer each day. Today’s beer video is from 1952 and was sponsored by the United States Brewers Foundation. The ten-minute film, As We Like It, is a fun little overview of beer’s history and its positive aspects.

Today’s infographic is the ^ Bootstrapper’s Guide to Craft Beer Marketing, created by Craig Tommola of 36 Squares, although I found it on Pinterest where a Marta S M claimed its authorship. Whoever made it, it’s an interesting look at brand marketing.
