The Ginger and The Beard Podcast

Galaxy is one of my favorite hop varieties, so I had to pick this one up from @balladbrewing. It had a very light mouthfeel, subtle grapefruit flavor profile and a nice acidic bit. It’s a great IPA for a warm summer afternoon, chilling by pool, out on a boat, or suiting up for a trip a little further away. 🚀👩‍🚀 (Has anyone drank craft beer in space?) • • • • • #craftbeer #beer #beerstagram #beerporn #instabeer #drinklocal #beergeek #beerlover #craftbeerlover #beerme #craftbeerporn #brewery #craftnotcrap #cheers #beernerd #beers #beersofinstagram #beersnob #craftbeernotcrapbeer #cerveza #beertime #bier #hops #beerlovers #craft #drinkcraft #stout #craftbrew #beerpics #craftbeergeek

If you want to step back from the gimmicky IPAs that are taking over more shelf space these days, and need something with a big hop punch, the West Coast IPA from @ThreeNotchdBeer is guaranteed to hit the spot. Check out the review in our bio! 🍊🍺 #beer #craftbeer #brewery

The Witch of Pungo Pumpkin Ale

Legend has it that Grace Sherwood, better known as The Witch of Pungo, could take the form of a black cat, used witchcraft to cause the death of livestock and more. Whether you believe the tales or not, one thing is for certain. Back Bay's Farmhouse Brewing Co’s Witch of Pungo Pumpkin Ale is scary good. A delicious blend of spices, and just the right amount of pumpkin, makes this one of my all-time favorite seasonal brews. Get your hands on some before they vanish, and check the link in our bio for the full written review. 🧙‍♀️ • • • • • #craftbeer #beer #beerstagram #beerporn #instabeer #drinklocal #beergeek #beerlover #craftbeerlover #beerme #craftbeerporn #brewery #craftnotcrap #cheers #beernerd #beers #beersofinstagram #beersnob #craftbeernotcrapbeer #cerveza #beertime #bier #hops #beerlovers #witch #creepy #spooky #scary #fall #pumpkin

Ep. 70 - Head Brewer, Brian Martin of Tradition Brewing Company

Brian Martin, Head Brewer of Tradition Brewing Company in Newport News, VA joins us this week to discuss a very special local craft beer release that supports a cause very near to his heart. ‘Beer With a Vision’ is a Hazy IPA brewed with Citra and Eldorado Hops, and is releasing on 7/30/21. With the purchase of this beer, 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Massachusetts Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired. Brian has experienced impaired vision of his own when suffering two different retina detachments, one in each eye. Though he was able to recover from these incidents, there are many who have been less fortunate, so he has made it his mission to raise $10,000 in partnership with Team With a Vision, a team of runners and supporters who raise money for the visually impaired by participating in the Boston Marathon. We talk about Brian’s road to becoming Head Brewer at Tradition Brewing Company beginning with his initial love for craft beer which began while stationed in Germany, and then discuss a few of the out-of-the-ordinary beers he brews, cans, designs and taps all on premise. You may be surprised by some of his creations! Check out this episode to learn how you can support an amazing cause by drinking delicious beer.

Why Malt Matters w/ Jeff Bloem of Murphy & Rude Malting - Ep. 64

Jeff Bloem is the Founder of, and Maltster at Murphy & Rude Malting in Charlottesville, VA. We had the pleasure of sitting down with him, plus Bonnie from Wheatland Spring Farm + Brewery, to talk about why malt matters in craft beer. Not only in the sense of the flavor and character it creates in your beer, but also the impact using local malts has on the local economy and supply chain. Jeff is an incredibly smart guy who transitioned away from a successful career in Corporate Development, using his knowledge of supply chain management to identify a huge opportunity in the mid-atlantic region of the United States. Though the craft beer scene was on the rise, the number of local ingredient suppliers was scarce, and such was the inception of Murphy & Rude Malting. Check out the episode to learn why malt matters in craft beer, how Murphy & Rude steeps and roasts their malt, what happens when mistakes are made, where the demand for new styles of malt comes from, and how important local collaboration is to their business.
