Epic Sour Brainless on Guava & Habanero

August 20, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

My son, Hank, and college friends of his were visiting us last weekend and my wife, Faith, picked up an array of interesting beers for a weekend cookout. One that got my attention - in part because it’s one of the strangest sounding beers I’ve ever come across - was Epic Brewing Co. Sour Brainless On Guava & Habanero, Cellar Reserve. What in the world?, I thought.  It’s … [Read more...]

5 Rockin’ Restaurant Dishes + 5 Bodacious Brews

April 12, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Over the past few years, I’ve been noticing that beer pairing dinners in breweries and restaurants have replaced some of the ubiquitous wine dinners that previously ruled the roost. And, why not? Just like with various wine varieties, different types and styles of beer pair (or don’t pair) well with certain foods. One thing for sure, it’s fun to experiment with food and beer … [Read more...]

Science Moab on Tap

April 7, 2020 by Shannan Butler Leave a Comment

Who'da thunk that beer can build brain cells? But that’s what you get with Moab Science on Tap—a whole lot of science, as much beer as you want (responsibly), and a gathering of community. Science Moab on Tap is the offspring of Science Moab, which was created by Kristina Young, an ecologist who wanted to engage people in science focusing on Southeastern Utah and the … [Read more...]

Utah Brews News During COVID-19 Pandemics

April 3, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

As is the case with restaurants and bars, Utah’s brewing industry is under severe stress thanks to COVID-19 shutdowns and restrictions. Brewpubs are trying to survive with curbside takeout service just as many breweries are selling beer-to-go. (Thankfully, that hasn’t been terminated … yet.) We can all help by drinking locally-brewed beer and buying gift cards and swag from … [Read more...]

April 1, 2020 by Tom Bennett Leave a Comment

They are continuing to celebrate their history and Southern Utah culture by opening Station 2 in a historic building. The new location is in a renovated fire station which has served the city since 1918. … [Read more...]

Home Brewers Flavor Beer with Locally Grown Hops Varieties

March 25, 2020 by Claire McArthur Leave a Comment

This past summer, my husband and I planted hops for the first time in a sunny corner of our yard in Sugarhouse. After years of buying shrink-wrapped packages of the papery cones for his homebrews, we decided it was time to give it a try ourselves. After some initial research on Google, we found that Cascade hops tend to grow well in Utah’s climate and are a prominent … [Read more...]

Bewilder Brewing

March 24, 2020 by Stuart Melling Leave a Comment

Ross Metzger and Cody McKendrick know a thing or two about beer. Not only are the duo the names behind Salt City Brew Supply, Metzger and McKendrick are now also the proud co-owners/brewers behind one of Salt Lake City’s newest craft breweries—Bewilder Brewing. With all of that combined experience in the brewing business, you’d probably expect something a little special, and … [Read more...]

Gluten-Free Drink Options in Park City

March 23, 2020 by Lynn Smargis Leave a Comment

When you’re gluten-free, especially if you’ve been diagnosed with Celiac’s disease, finding a fermented brew that is safe to drink can be challenging. However, you can discover celiac-safe brews in Park City that can please your palate. My favorite gluten-free brew is hard cider, which differs from beer in that the main product being fermented is not a grain, but a … [Read more...]

Raise a Cheer for Sour Beer and Where To Find them in Salt Lake Valley

March 16, 2020 by Claire McArthur Leave a Comment

Before advances in refrigeration, sanitation, and fermentation in the mid-19th century, most beer was, to a certain degree, sour. The culprits? Wild bacteria and yeast that infiltrated the beer to create unwanted tartness and funk. Today, as the craft beer industry continues its meteoric rise, sours are making a comeback as modern day brewers infect their beers with the same … [Read more...]
