    Bierbrouwerij Emelisse

    Eigenwijs lekker bier De twee ‘koperen’ ketels – met stoom verwarmd – staan bij Brouwerij Emelisse overduidelijk in het zicht. En meerdere keren per week hangt in het gebouw, ook in het restaurant, de kenmerkende geur van het brouwproces.Deze brouwketels kunnen elk zo’n 1000 liter per keer produceren. Brouwers spreken echter niet in liters, maaar in hectoliters ( 100 liter). De brouwerij beschikt verder over meerdere lagertanks die gezamenlijk goed zijn voor circa 180 hectoliter.De jaarproductie ligt op 2000 hectoliter en groeit gestaag. De helft van deze productie exporteren we naar landen als de VS, Brazilië, Zweden, Finland, Noorwegen, Engeland, Frankrijk, Italië en Spanje.

    Utobeer Cage

    Utobeer began trading at Borough Market in December 1999. At that time the stall was manned by the directors of the company, Richard Dinwoodie and Mike Hill with only one other member of staff. They operated from a trestle table and a couple of display cases whilst the portfolio at that time consisted of approximately 50 different beers, in comparison to the 2000 beers today, with currently 700 products on display at any one time, and now with a staff of five.

    The Cellarmans Creed

    This is my beer. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My beer is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My beer, without me, is useless. Without my beer, I am useless. I must drink my beer true. I must brew faster than my enemy who is trying to outbrew me. I must outbrew him before he outbrews me. I will… My beer and I know that what counts in bars is not the rounds we pour, the noise of our taps, nor the joke we make. We know that it is the tips that count.…

    Oktoberwhat? Oktoberfest

    As I finish the first of the holiday travel recap articles I am still going about the business of making changes to the website to reflect what is happening in the beer world. And there is really nothing bigger in the beer world than the annual German beer festival we all know and love “Oktoberfest”.  I, myself, have not had the opportunity to attend this festival yet, but there is an off chance that next fall may be the time.
