I would love to hear WAY MORE about what he has to say. I respect his passion, and 100% agree with his dislike of the overabundance of IPA, and just want to know more.
Yeah, limits of the format and all. Beer is fascinating and we could do a ton of videos just on that.
+The Good Stuff where can we learn more? :)
+The Good Stuff do it do it do it do it do it
It looks like you cut a bunch of info about at least 2 or 3 other beers (ales, maybe?) can you maybe do a 'cutting room floor" video, with some of the info left out of this? Keep the "production" level minimal, and pass it on. :) KTHXBYE
i agree, just even upload the raw footage to a 2nd channel or something to keep this one nice and clean. I'd eat that stuff uuuuuup. Or in this case chug it :)
I turn 21 on Friday. great knowledge to have.
hahah I'm also studyin up, still got about a month to go
lel rip. In Germany we can drink beer at 16.
don't act like you didn't start at 15 ;]
Great video, would love to interview this guy for our channel! Glad he distinguished tasting beer and evaluating beer. You gotta just put them away sometimes!
What styles of beer do you guys prefer? Also, yes, I really liked this guy, and would be down to see more of what he has to say.
+TheMasonX we love all kinds! Every style has a time and a place from lagers to lambic to ipa to stout. We try to give them all fair airing on the channel.
This was a lot less intimidating than eating bugs.
You're back! Yay! Welcome back guys.
It's more of a bonus in between seasons.
It's good to be back!
Extended cut, please! I see two other beers on the table at the end that weren't discussed. This guy is incredibly interesting!
I gravitate towards coffee stouts, Russian Imperial Stouts, and Hefes. I wish you guys would have shown more than three styles of beer :(
I've been looking forward to this Good Stuff since the teaser on Craig's channel.
Here for this. Beer deserves as much respect as wine...and we should have as many market choices in beer as in wine. I wish something OTHER than American lager and ipa were widely available
where i'm at all kinds of beer is available.
Oh come to Europe. Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, we have lovely breweries around here.
The production quality that you guys brink to the table here is much appreciated. A LOT of other beer reviewers pale in comparison. Their videos are just not full-bodied. Would love to see more, or even have this turn into a series...
It's good to have y'all back! :) A bunch of my friends are really into craft beer and I can't stand most of what I've tasted. It took me a while to realise that I just didn't like Pale Ales.
We need a part 2 on dark beer! Stouts and such. Those are my favourites! Except Newcastle, that's my absolute favourite. (Can't stand IPA btw)
Hi Miss Sery. We have an IPA in Britain which I think would surprise you! Made in Cornwall (I live near Newquay) 'Proper Job IPA' is a bottle conditioned ale with a lovely, rounded character. We have many more, though I drink a range of beers (not lagers) which I could recommend. All The Best. Steve. x.
I was on a 2 year long IPA kick. Now I am all about the Stouts and Porters!!! Dragons Milk from New Holland Brewing Co. out of Michigan is my favorite (for now).
As a person who really likes beers, I really loved this episode :)
Brit here, recently got the chance to travel around Europe with some like minded friends, Budvar is definitely a favourite after that, along with some pilsners, and of course German Helles is pretty great
I started drinking pale ale in the early 90's too. Bought alot of craft beers back then in NYC delis walking around when you could still bag em. Even brewed two batches with a brew kit. But I just love my hops, and India Pale Ale the best. I wish it were otherwise.
Westbrook Mexican Cake - best beer ever. I love craft beer and I could listen to this guy talk forever!
Very glad to see The Good Stuff back! I'm not big on beer, but if I get the urge while I'm out with friends, at least I'll have a better understanding of what I'm looking for. The only beer I've ever liked is Guinness. But I haven't had it in ages because I always feel full, even if I haven't eaten in days, so it's impossible to drink.
I really enjoy listening to the guest
i'm from Belgium, It's awsome. thanks guys
I'm a big fan of stouts and porters, myself. Especially the stuff put out by Tadcaster in the UK. But when I'm in the mood for something light, I invariable return to Stella Artois.
Finally a video that shows off Craig's real skills!
this old guy seems so cool. id love to hang out with him drinking exotic beers lol
A friend I met recently from southern Germany introduced me to German Helles, and I must say, it is very nice. Need to get some of that in the US. My favorite style ever has to be a nice Belgian Wheat with a fruit garnish, or a rich and creamy Stout though.
my favorite beer was an IPA but now i'm thinking i need to expand my horizons even more!
Loved the episode.
I'm only just getting into Beer myself having not been a fan of it for a few years.
My favourite at the moment would probably be Carlton Draught, which is a very popular beer here in Australia.
But I do intend to try a lot more beers in the future and expand my knowledge of beers passed main stream ;)
I do find lots of beer choices overwhelming at times. But I like learning a bit more about Helles beers. And I'm glad to not be the only one overwhelmed can by all the IPAs.
I'm a Beer Bro (and a Patreon supporter of The Good Stuff) and I approve of this video.
You guys always find different and interesting things to show us.
I haven't yet settled on a favorite beer, but I do know that stouts and porters are my favorite categories. Deschutes Black Butte Porter and Guinness Extra Stout are my go-to beers when it comes to grabbing a six-pack for a party.
Bewdog beers are pretty impressive. Massive variety from the Scottish brewery. 5am Saint and Brixton Porter are a couple of my favourites. They do some interesting stonger beers like Sink The Bismarck which is a staggering 41% ABV. If you're in the UK visit one of their bars, best (not cheapest) place to get a pint.
I really like radlers :) those are beers mixed with lemon juice or grapefruit juice some other kind of fruit juice and it's amazing! My favorite is grolsch radler lemon
I like to start an evening at a bar with a heavy hitting beer like a porter or stout, followed by something hoppy before graduating to an easy-drinking ale (or dark lager)
I am quite fond of a good porter or stout beer, with Hefeweisen being a close second. I'm not very familiar with most foreign beers, but as an Oregonian, I can say with some confidence that there are quite a few good brewers in the Pacific Northwest.
So, I don't drink beer... but I found this very interesting! It seemed to me that they were discussing the differences between three styles of beer (the American light lager, german pale lager, and india pale ale), rather than any particular brand.
I like IPAs, a lot, but my favourite type of beer has to be Red Ale. Red Ale reminds me of stout in it's silky texture but has gorgeous fruity tones that I find difficult to get in other beers.
Yay! The Good Stuff is back!
While I like wheat beers, I think my favorites are stouts and porters.
Having tried beer from all over the world, I gotta say, Belgian beer is far and away my favorite. Every style just tastes a little more flavorful than anywhere else
Great vid, that guy was fun to listen to, an authentic passion came through... What's his website !?
right now, an ice-cold pilsner is always nice, but in the winter a nice porter or stout goes down really well
Thumbs up for using Two Hearted Ale!
I really like anything from Left Field Brewery in Toronto. They have delicious descriptions of all their beers on their website. It's a small shop that makes many one-off and unique recipes.
Welcome back Good Stuff!!
I love so many different kinds of beer. I really couldn't say that I have any particular favorite, but I'll narrow it down to two favorite styles: dark beers like porters and stouts, and hoppy beers like IPAs. I totallt get what you're saying about being tired of IPAs, and I agree to an extent, but I still love that hoppy bitterness.
This Canadian spent almost 4 decades knocking American beer.
Now Sierra Nevada Pale ale is pretty much the only brew I'll drink.
I like very hoppy beers but only when the focus is on hop aroma and taste, NOT on bittering. There are some IPA's and APA's like that and they are absolutely delicious but most of them are a bitter mess, tons of hops but all of the taste and aroma are boiled away and what is left is bittering that wreaks havoc on your palate.
Also, AFAIK, originally IPA's were highly hopped to make sure they stay fresh for long time (hop works as a preservative) when shipped overseas to India and beyond, but hop taste also fades and mildens over time so what the beer was at the end of the shipping destination is no longer the same bitter mess as it was when made. So I think IPA fans are kinda missing the point when they drink young and fresh super bitter IPA's. But if you like bitter IPA's that is fine. Everybody has different taste.
I really like copper and red ales. I like that IPA's are fading some. Gives coppers and reds a chance to shine. :)
My usual go-to beer is a Pale Ale (which is a different section to the India Pale Ale). However I think the favourite I've ever I've ever had was Pliny the Elder from Russian River Brewery in California. It is apparently classed as a Double IPA (which I did not know until I checked for this comment).
I love me some double IPAs, but they are typically very high alcohol content for a beer (9%+).
Great episode. Love beer. My favorite is Newcastle.
I'm not well drunk, and like to taste different things, but I like a lot of stouts, porters and wheatbeer. If it's warm out I'll have a pilsner. I find that as long as the beer doesn't remind me too much of perfume it's alright (that can be a fine line sometimes).
It's great to see how different this guy is from the average wine snob. Which is why I like craft beer culture so much (not that there aren't craft beer snobs out there).
As a chef, I respect the range of beer as I do the range of wines. Sadly, the food in most pubs and bars are so chocked with fats and salt and sugar, that only a highly hopped IPA will cut through all the fore mentioned. Find out if your favorite chef or restaurant offers a "beer pairing menu" to truly experience beer and food together. (And possibly justify your favs.)
When I am old enough to drink beer, I will definitely go looking for a Cicerone. But what happened to all the other beers we see in the final shots? Is there a description for those?
I've always thought beer was gross, I think it's because I don't really like bitter flavors, I'm used to sweeter things. I couldn't drink coffee until I discovered all kinds of flavored latte's (I'm probably a Starbucks snob but I'm growing out of it).
It's really interesting to know, even on this simple level that's in this video, that hops is the more bitter taste, and the difference between an IPA and a lager. It makes me want to learn more about different kinds and see if there might be one that I might actually like but haven't tasted before because I didn't know any better.
You should make another video about more different types of beer!
You mean.... How to evaluate beer, we all taste beers loved the intro haha. Also agreed, malt is the soul of beers, Bell's Two Hearted is such a solid beer, always a go to in my books.
I'm from Czech republic. If you'd look into stats you'd know that we here drink most beer peer capita in the world. It is no accident our beer is the best beer.
Yeah my English teacher said he's very glad to live in Czech republic, where he can buy Pilsner so cheap while his friends in the UK pay high prices for that.
Uuuhhh you'll have a lot of angry Bavarians on your tail for thatXD
I fully agree, some of the beers I tasted in Prague were freaking amazing
When I* went to Japan a couple of years ago, I went to the "Beer Museum Yokohama" (a restaurant with a huge variety of beers from all over the world). My (German) friends ordered: Czech beer.
*I'm German and I don't drink beer.
it´s also very cheap!
When i was in czech republic, the beer was even cheaper than ordinary mineral water!
mmm i noticed that two hearted was the ipa you chose, great chioce! Bells is such a good brewery.
I've only really just got into beer... I'm a fan of Cobra (Indian Lager). Would have liked to have heard more about all the other types of beer, this didn't even start to talk about Ale and stuff!
I was started on IPA's and I'll always love them.
That was great, learnt a lot :D also my favourite's Estrella from Barcelona!
That is one of my favorites, too!
+WheezyWaiter it would seem we both have excellent tastes!
you guys always get very interesting interviewees
omg i so agree with the IPA thing. there's a place in my college town that's right next to campus, has 2 pints for $5 every day, good burgers and sandwiches and stuff... but every other time i go in there, out of like 15 taps, a couple aren't being used, one is angry orchard, one is blue moon, almost 10 are IPAs, and the remaining few might as well be IPAs.
but i still go there because the other times they have a macademia nut porter from 6 rivers brewery that is like the greatest thing ever.
also Untappd is a great app btw
Happy this show is back! Keep it up! :-)
i love bourbon county stout, but my go to beer is the the troegenator double bock made by troegs brewery
I love the idea of the Cicerone tests, but I wish they weren't so expensive. I'm working toward being BJCP certified (which is geared toward beer judges, rather than servers), and the tests are much more affordable (and much more available). Maybe if I had a sponsor to help with the cost of the certification...
What happened to our beloved Dutch and Belgium beers? Nothing on the old abbey brewed beers of all colors up to dark as ebony?
Just got my hands on a New Belgium: Reserve Sour Saison and I must say it has probably taken my spot for #1 in terms of bottled beer. From the tap, a local California brewery by the name of Moonraker, offers some of the best beer I've had so far so that one is tough to choose for a specific flavor.
LewcrativeArts I've heard of moonraker, will have to give them a try!
Libations Academy Yea definitely! I'm sure you'll find one of their offerings that suits your tastes.
The first beer I tried and truly loved was Alexander Keith's IPA. I think for anyone who's not a beer drinker because, as the fellow said, most North American lagers are quite week in flavour (I'm looking at you Molson and Labatt). IPAs offer something different and an excellent jumping off point for everything beer has to offer.
Also, I'm thirsty now, and I'm also regretting the fact I opted to buy wine on my way home.
I grew up in Munich and I so can confirm what he said. I was shocked when I came to the US. IPAs are drinkable, I guess, but your "standard" beer is what comes out of the kitchen tap in Munich. :D
would have been nice to know more of the names of the beers you drank (there were more glasses at the end than were addressed in the video). cicerone founder has a great passion. kicking back a scotish ale as i watched :p
but i think that IPAs have become so popular because the hoppy taste is really easy to create (good starting beer for a home brewer or microbrewery) and the hops would hide any flaws in the beer making process.
There's a brewery in Des Moines called Exile that makes a sour beer that is just un-freakin-believable. I know what you're thinking, sour beer? Don't knock it till you try it.
I love sour beer. The more tart the better!
I love me some sours when I'm in the mood. Really nice on a beautiful California summer night.
Absolutely!! It's my go-to recommendation for people who don't like beer. That and shandys.
Cole Kelly have you heard of Avery brewing in Colorado? They make a phenomenal raspberry sour! Weyerbacher in Pennsylvania also make a raspberry sour called riserva and it is even better
Ummm, sour and tart are 2 different things, ask a cicerone
New belgium's citradelic is the newest on my fav list as well as Left Hand Brewing's Milk Stout Nitro.
Daumen hoch für helles!
Great video! We need a more in depth interview with Ray.
Favourite beer? That's a really hard one. I'm a fan of IPA because of the refreshing hoppy flavour, but my over all favourite brewery is BrewDog from Scotland and their ales, so I guess it'll have to be some kind of Scottish ale.
While watching this, I drank a Swedish Mango Feber DIPA from Brewski. =D
What a bad ass. Great interview guys!
Thx for show us how to taste the beer like a pro! Ha ha ha so funny expert this was ;-)
My favorite beers are mostly Trappist style beers (most of them) and fruity sour beers like lambic. I don't like the hoppy after taste of most IPAs and other hoppy bears, though I do like the initial flowery taste of hops.
The Black O'Lantern Pumpkin Stout from Wasatch Brewery is pretty darn good, but then again I'm a stout fan, never really got into IPA's
Is there a director's cut of this episode? Seems like there were a couple beers cut from his explanations, and the conversation seemed to jump between topics pretty haphazardly. Also just would have liked to hear a lot more about what he had to say about each topic. I like beer and the Good Stuff though, so this was a fun episode!
This episode is good stuff.
Favorite beer is Adelbert's Tripel B, but I've been getting into ciders a lot lately. Austin East Ciders has a honey cider...omg delcioussssss
Porters and Stouts. I love the full flavor of these more than any other. My personal favorite is Fullers London Porter (probably generic but I don't really care, it's just too good).
As a Belgian, I'm gonna pick one of our own beers. I like dark beers that are a bit sweet. I like the triple beer from my home city best up 'till now. So, Carolus Tripple for me. Though I seem to like most heavy, dark beers. I haven't tasted our supposedly best beer of the world. It's very exclusive, made in limited edition in a monestary/abbey and it's called Westfleteren if I'm not mistaken. If the stories are true, there are traffic jams to try and obtain the beer.
As an aside, american craft beers made Belgian news in the sense that the heavy use of hops was driving up its price dramatically and that our local brewers couldn't afford to use hops anymore, which threatened several small breweries with losing their specific brews since a lot of it is very local and as such produced in small quantities. Something like that. If my sentences do not make much sense, I am sorry. It's late and I'm tired. :)
Brilliant, thank you. I enjoy helles most of all.
Two hearted ale my personal fav. Good choice.
my favorite beer is cause and effect from nickel brook brewing in Ontario
My favourite beer is the so-called 'Storchenbier', a Helles which you only get in the Steinbach Brewery in Erlangen, Germany. It's simply everything a Helles should be.
And while I'm on the subject of Helles, a little nit-picking: Helles is not only the go-to beer in Munich, but in all of Bavaria at least. This is an oversimplification of course but generally where the north of Germany goes for Pilsener, the south chooses Helles (and wheat beer which is incredible in its own right:D)
Go to 5 Rabbit beer in Chicago! I've heard it's amazing!
I've always been a fan of Belgium Whites, I'm curious to try a Helles Lager now. For what ever reason all the hops in every IPA I've ever tried makes it taste like soap.
Not really a sisaroan but I do like home brew thanks for info
Hmmm, guess I'm googling how to become a Cicerone. I enjoy trying all kinds of beer, but will admit that Bell's Two Hearted Ale now plays the same role Miller High Life did in back in my early twenties. I like IPAs but I do generally look for something different when I go out.
>.> I went to university In Asheville North Carolina. Pretty much everything there is craft beers and there are so many different types. I mean there are quite a lot of ipa's but I'm partial to brown beers and there are a lot of good ones up there.
Damn that guys tolerance must be incredible. x
Lol i love how he trolled him at the start 😂
Great video, I love amber ales. Anyone heard of a little beer called Kwak?
I'm turning 18 in October but here in South Africa there's been talk of bumping up the drinking age to 21. It gonna be close!!
My favourite beer is a Belgian cherry beer. Phenomenal.
PBS is back too?
I used to be more into beer, but my tastes have changed and i mostly drink cider now.
Very curious to know what the main differences are between Cicerone and the BJCP (Beer Judge Certification Program). I am an avid home brewer so don't be shy with details.
BJCP is extremely focused on tasting and the minutia of beer styles. They need to know the small differences between many beer styles and judge any beer placed before them against an indealized version of a style. A question a Certified Beer Judge would be good at answering is, "What's a good IBU range for a Baltic Porter?"
Cicerones also study beer styles, but perhaps not quite to the same level as BJCP but they still know a ton. The main difference is that Cicerone also has a service portion of knowledge. They are educated in the best ways to serve beer, draft systems, serving temperatures, etc. And are also skilled at explaining beer history and culture to lay people. A question a Cicerone would be good at answering is. "What is the history behind a Baltic Porter?"
