Interview with a Homebrewer – Hill Hopper
Our first interview of the year comes to us from the United Kingdom. He’s comes as a friend of CellarMonk’s (a link to his blog can be found in our Blog Roll/Beer Links section). We would have sat him down in the Comfy Computer Chair of Fame, but alas, he seems to always be on the go. Up one hill or down another with time in between for his work and his play (beer brewing/blogging/drinking and hill walking) we very nearly had to get this interview on the road. Please welcome to CellarMonk, Mr. Andrew Mogg.Name: Andy Mogg Day Job: Web development Director (lemontopcreative.com) Twitter handle: @BeerReviewsAndy Beer Related Writings: Beer Reviews…

Interview with a Homebrewer – Brew Duo
The homebrewing community is thought to be one of the solitary brewer standing forth at his mash tun or brew kettle, contemplating his next step or next brew. Yes, there are homebrew clubs and such, but rarely do we get to see a couple that actually brews together. Past experience, and quite a few, “That’s nice, honey” has this writer heard from his own spouse while brewing. We are excited to bring to CellarMonk our first husband and wife brewers. From the way it sounds, this will be a lifelong endeavor. Please welcome to the Comfy Computer Chair of Fame (Lara, women first ya know) and to the Not So…

The Basics of Cask Ale
There has been an explosion in America of the introduction of cask ale offerings from craft brewers (usually local brewers). For those uninitiated, we thought we’d put together a small primer on the basics of cask ale. Hopefully this will help if you just happen to run across a cask ale offering at a local taproom or you happen to be traveling in the United Kingdom. Cask ale is also called cask-conditioned beer (very similar to bottle conditioning of beer). It is unpasteurized, unfiltered beer which is served from the same cask in which it was conditioned including secondary fermentation. This secondary fermentation in the cask is where the beer…

For Immediate Release – November 20th, 2012 Carolina Brewing Company Releases Carolina Zweiköpfignator Dopplebock We have released our Carolina Zweiköpfignator Dopplebock. Our Doppelbock is a dark reddish lager with a rich, malty flavor and a slight hop finish.Munich, Caramel, and Chocolate malts give this beer its color and flavor. There is a subtle earthy character from the Hallertau hops to balance the maltiness. The alcohol is 7.4% abv and although not pronounced, it offers a nice warming sensation to go with the malty flavor. With the high abv we should be charging a high gravity price for this little beauty, but instead … HAPPY THANKSGIVING: we’re releasing it at our…
