Chip the Beer Guy Rock 107 – Breaker Brewing Goldies Strawberry Blond

BreakerBrewingVan It’s always exciting to hear Chris & Mark on the radio and even more exciting to hear how well Breaker Brewing Co has been doing.  Breaker Brewing Co is now serving their beers in 9 local bars (Elmer Sudds, Kelsey’s, The Anthracite Cafe, Dugan’s, BaR, Purvs, Backyard Ale House, Grotto Harvey’s Lake, and the Arena) and working hard to keep up with demand.  This week’s show featured their new Goldies Strawberry Blond Ale.  As a closet brewer, I’ll admit I was most interested in their story of how the strawberries were prepared and used.  For those that missed it the guys prepared the berries in a juicer, ran the juice through cheesecloth, boiled it down and added it to the secondary fermentation.  This makes the strawberries part of the beer and not just an add-in extract.  I was also excited to hear that their new IPA (I Love PA) will also be featured on the show soon.  For those of you out and about tonight (8/7), we hope to be tasting both the Goldies Strawberry Blond and I Love PA at Elmer Sudds during happy hour!

Congratulations & cheers guys…great show and thank you for mentioning mybeerbuzz.com!

Chip the Beer Guy Rock 107 - Breaker Brewing Co Anthracite Ale

It was quite a lovely little show today on the Chip the Beer Guy program. Our guests today were none other than Chris & Mark from our very own Breaker Brewing Co. It's always wonderful to see our local brewers gaining attention, and this is certainly no exception. I've written many times about Chris & Mark's adventure in licensing and brewing and it was fun to hear the guys relate their story on the radio.

The guys poured Anthracite Ale today and talked about their origins in the brewing industry and the other beers they are brewing and planning to brew. We also found out today that Breaker Brewing Co will be appearing on the CBG show a few more times to talk about their other 3 beers and maybe even talk about a seasonal (can you say Fall Pumpkin Ale).


All in all it was a fun show to listen to, and of course it never hurts when the mybeerbuzz.com name gets mentioned on the air. Cheers to that and thank you guys for an entertaining show and of course for the beers.

I've heard from Chris a few times and they have a few beers pretty close to being ready, they're doing more LCB paperwork and we're getting closer to seeing Breaker Brewing Co beers available.

Breaker Brewing Co - Update

I just heard from Chris and he tells me that Anthracite Ale is in one tank, Goldie's Blond Ale in the second tank (both fermenting) and the guys plan to brew Old King Coal Stout & Malthy McGuire later this week. Chris tells me the goal is to have 4 beers ready when their label approval comes in. The guys also just purchased 41 sixtels that they are getting ready. Exciting stuff...and stay tuned for more details.

UPDATE to the update (3/18): I just heard from Chris and the Breaker Brewing labels have been approved by the TTB and are now off to the LCB for their approval. This is no small task so it's exciting news for the guys at Breaker. Barring any problems form the LCB, watch for Breaker Brewing Co beers to be available some time in April.
