Drink Beer, Think Beer With John Holl19 Apr 2023

Ep. 180 - Brewers Discuss Lagers at Little Beer Festival

It’s a love of lagers episode from four brewers that have fully embraced the traditions to the style and are working to have modern conversations in the space. You’ll hear from Bierstadt Lagerhaus, Bagby Beer, Heater Allen, and Cohesion Brewing.

It was a beautiful weather day in Duluth, Georgia last weekend as Good Word Brewing put on its third Little Beer Festival. Todd DiMatteo, who you’ve heard on this show, hosted a celebration of low ABV lagers and ales from top-notch brewers from around the country.

The brewery has already set the date for Little Beer IV: Saturday April 13, 2024. It’s a perfect setting and a charming town just outside of Atlanta and if you’re serious about great beer and the people who make it, be sure to be there next year.

It’s not just beer drinking at this fest but also some education. Under the shade of a large tree in the middle of the green John Holl was able to sit down with four brewers of note to talk about their love of lagers and the steps they are taking to create delicious beers.

The panel includes:

Lisa Allen of Heater Allen and Gold Dot Beer in Oregon,

Jeff Bagby of Bagby Beer in California;

Ashleigh Carter of Bierstadt Lagerhaus in Denver Colorado,

and

Eric Larkin of Cohesion Brewing in Denver.
