Happy Indigenous People’s day. Daria and I had a busy weekend out and about in the Mississippi and Arkansas Deltas. We got knocked to the ground by a car just walking (with the light) across a Memphis street, but otherwise had too good a time to be yammering on here. Pleasure was always top of mind, so starting there again this week.<\/p>\n

A formula for pleasure.<\/strong><\/a> Search for the word wine. Replace it with beer.<\/p>\n

Thump! Rattle, scrape. Thump! Rattle, scrape.<\/strong><\/a> Thanks to @thebeernut<\/a> for pointing to this story on X (just when you think you are out a gem like this suck you back in). In case you woke this morning thinking “Why cork bags?” Now you know.<\/p>\n

Love hops? Love lager?<\/strong><\/a> Or if you woke up this morning wondering what defines a West Coast Pilsner, here you go.<\/p>\n

\"Duff<\/p>\n

Duff in the real world.<\/strong><\/a> That’s my Duff luggage tag. It is the second one I’ve owned. Not sure if the first one accidentally came off in transit or was stolen. <\/p>\n

Is cask ale right wing, left wing, both, or neither?<\/strong><\/a> You can have the same discussion about “craft beer” in the US. In fact, Dave Infante has in his Substack<\/a>. Ask a subscriber to forward you a copy, or subscribe yourself.<\/p>\n

What comes after umami?<\/strong><\/a> Scholars have discovered evidence of a sixth basic taste. This is very early research and nobody is talking about the implications of what this might mean for understanding more about how we taste beer.<\/p>\n

GABF streamed.<\/strong><\/a> The Beer Crunchers GABF Running Diary is much more coherent than I would have managed. “Go for the people, the conversations, the research, the inspiration, and the chance to get out of dodge and reset your mind a bit.”<\/p>\n

The 10 oldest beers in America.<\/strong><\/a> Maybe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
