I'm dictating folder names into my notes app for a collection today and my phone recorded Hallertauer as "Holler towel," "Hall Tower," "Haller town," and "Hollerado." Clearly I need to work on my pronunciation. #hopshistory

Happy to see the Guardian has an obituary for Martyn Cornell out today. He deserved that. Even if it does feel bitter-sweet to read it. www.theguardian.com/food/2025/au...

Thinking about a recipe recreation to celebrate some women in brewing. Alex is Alexandra Farnham, who worked at McMenamins in 1986 and is the second woman to call herself a brewer in Oregon. {{The first was Marie Kienlen in 1904.}} Get excited for our September History Off The Clock!

"We have a new typewriter, compliments Blitz-Weinhard… our panel found Henry Weinhard‘s Private Reserve to be the best of the US superpremium beers…Someone was willing to pay me to confirm … in a radio commercial. It was great fun and I loved it. The typewriter is nice too!" ❤️Amateur Brewer, 1981.
