Brewing to Style: Irish Ales - Video Course
Product details
In this online course NBU instructor Chip Walton takes an in-depth look at the beers of Ireland: delicious, often simple and sessionable beers, that are great all year long, but of specific importance to the beer drinker and beer brewer’s calendar around St. Patrick’s Day.
In this course we look at the official and unofficial Irish ale styles, starting with style guidelines, key ingredients, and a bit of history. To demonstrate how it all comes together in the pint glass, this includes a walkthrough of the brewing process for the all-grain and extract versions of Northern Brewer’s Irish Blonde Ale, Irish Red Ale, and Dry Irish Stout recipe kits.
Then, we talk one-on-one with brewers to get technical advice, brewing tips, and recipes. Mark Hunger, brewmaster at Great Lakes Brewing Company, talks us through the brewery’s award-winning Conway’s Irish Ale and pub-exclusive Wolfhound Stout. Homebrewer Brooks Edman and pro brewer Ryan Foltz of Pour Man’s Brewing Company talk about their pro-am beer release Lucy’s Irish Extra Stout, born from a homebrew recipe which you’ll have access to as a downloadable bonus to the course.
The Brewing to Style series looks at different beer styles – everything from classic and historical styles, to the most popular new styles – what makes them unique, how they are brewed, and what variations you might find. We approach styles from a homebrewer’s perspective, but also present conversations with professional brewers to more fully understand style guidelines and brewing techniques.
The course is completely on demand, allowing you to complete it on your schedule. Once purchased you'll have unlimited access to the course content with no expiration or time limit.
