Drew’s been busy making beer for festival! What better to do with it than torture Denny with samples of 4 different beers. (All featuring a twist or two and those fantastic Crisp Heritage Malts!) Will Denny like them? Find out!
My only question is where to source archer plumage.
Enjoyed the podcast! Especially information on Crisp Chevallier malt and Bloody Butcher Corn malt. I recently brewed a Amber Ale with Chevallier and the malt flavor was awesome. An IPA with Chevallier will be a future brew. Keep up the good work on the podcasts!
Chevalier is great, but don’t overlook the Plumage Archer. I found it was a great malt for WCIPA. It has so much flavor it really stands up to the hops.
I haven’t found a source for Plumage Archer 
And when I went to order some chevelier yesterday I found a sold out note so couldn’t get any.
Good episode. I liked the section of tasting Drew’s beer- just enough tasting notes and quickly moving onto what the recipe was. How come you don’t do something similar in the lounge section when you presumably have a beer? It’s always a commercial beer- why not include some homebrew too? Just sayin’
Northern Brewer has Chevallier Malt and Hanna Malt. Northern Brewer is more expensive than Hop Craft Supply. Keep checking Hop Craft Supply they may more.
Dirty little secret about the Pub when we talk about beers. We’re rarely - usually only when together in person - drinking during the recording. So there we’re talking about beers that have been highlights of our recent tries.
Also thanks for the note - we’re definitely trying to include more homebrew and homebrew tasting in the mix!
That’s the Pub and I do sometimes include homebrew.
You are welcome! I really enjoy your podcast and am not at all surprised that you aren’t actually drinking while at work- I don’t drink and brew; I already make enough mistakes without the alcohol.
Keep up the great work!
Is there an online source for Bloody Butcher malt? I’ve been wanting to try this out since I use a fair amount of corn in my brewing, but I haven’t found it through through the usual channels, or by using my google-fu.
Great Fermentations https://www.greatfermentations.com has Sugar Creek Bloody Butcher Malt and Amanda White Corn malt. Both are very good.
Bloody Butcher has a unique and delicious flavor, but don’t expect it to taste like the corn you’re used to using. Drew used it in the cream ale I tasted and you would never know it was supposed to be a cream ale. It’s a great malt alternative, but to me it kinda demands to be used in new recipes, not subbed for corn in an existing recipe.

I bought it directly from sugar creek, but I think the minimum order was 10 lbs. I brewed an American Pils with it and have a hard time identifying what it’s contributing in it.
Interesting. I could tell right away that it didn’t taste like corn to me.
