There’s a small yard a moment away from Stoke Newington Church Street in North East London. At its entrance an entirely perfunctory and heavily battered railing protects the square of overgrown cobbles from the pavement beyond.

Despite the fact that the overall beer market has had a tough go in recent years, the stout category has continued to grow in popularity — likely thanks to the virality and cultural cachet of one specific Irish product.

There are exceptions to the rule, but we’ve reached a point in American craft beer culture when most taprooms can’t pull in crowds with good beer alone. Some have tried to navigate the rising tides by offering experiences customers can’t replicate at home, like Lukr-poured pilsners, turning bocks into beer brûlée with piping hot iron spikes, and, well, doubling down on weekly trivia nights. But none of these tactics fully confront what are arguably the two things holding taprooms back...| VinePair
Over the past few decades, the brewing industry has been defined by rampant innovation. The number of new substyles and pseudo-styles that have emerged from the dense thicket of breweries across the nation is head-spinning.

“You know when you meet somebody on the street, you ask them ‘How are you doing today?’” Dan Carey, the co-founder of Wisconsin’s beloved New Glarus Brewing Co., told me on a 2024 episode of VinePair’s award-winning “Taplines” podcast. “At a Craft Brewers Conference, it [used to be] ‘How much are you up this year?’ It was a game to say, ‘Oh, we’re up 10 percent,’ ‘Well, we’re up 80 percent!’” “Brewers don’t ask that anymore,” he added, chuckling wryly...| VinePair
2024 wasn’t a great year for the craft brewing industry. In the U.S., craft beer production was down to just 23.1 million barrels, a 3.9 percent decrease year-over-year. Moreover, the number of brewery closures outpaced the number of new brewery openings for the first time since 2005. But while things certainly aren’t booming in craft beer right now, not everything is bad. Not only was craft beer’s dollar share up 3 percent year-over-year, but employment in the category was up, too, mea...| VinePair

New Zealand hops are special. Fragrant and zesty, their unique profiles strangely represent likenesses to the famous Sauvignon Blanc wines made there—grapefruit, kiwi, gooseberry; freshly cut grass.

Now, it’s difficult to imagine the beer world without it, as it becomes ever more embedded within the flavour profiles of modern beer style...| Pellicle
Hops arrived in Australia not long after the first colonisers arrived from Britain. Through the late 18th, and early 19th century, seedlings from the UK and Germany migrated across the world to the “new” continent’s shores, where the struggle of self-determination was stirring a thirst among the growing population. From the early 19th century onwards Australian growers attempted to produce varieties from the UK including Whitebine, Fuggles, and East Kent Goldings. These were cultivated ...| Pellicle
