About this listen
Ed Hughes is a certified beer sommelier, the author of Just add Beer - a book about beer and food pairing - and also one of my oldest friends. Based in Cornwall he works at Sharps Brewery as an educator and advocate for Molson Coors but also the beer category as a whole.
This is a wide ranging conversation about beer, where we drink through 10 different beers reflecting a bunch of styles, whilst covering the ingredients, production, marketing, packaging, culture and public perception of beer - with more than a little bit of beer and food chat. Quite a few chefs get name checked.
Expect to learn how German lagers dominated the world, what defines a cask ale, who drinks the most beer in the world, what food you should pair a Belgian Lambic Ale with, and what a 10% beer aged 14 years tastes like.
Beers Tasted:
- Sharp’s Offshore Pilsner
- Staropramen
- Bamberg Rauchbier
- Sharps Doom Bar
- Blue Moon
- Sharps Chalky’s Bite
- Duchesse de Bourgogne
- Boon Oude Geuze
- Sharp’s Quadruple Ale 2011
