The Brew Is Out There!

Competition beer styles are a funny thing – sometimes a beer finds a home where it wasn’t intended, but the beer wins out regardless. Such is the case with Tom Fontes’ NZ Pils that isn’t really. Hear about the recipe and brewing it at Lawless Brewing!

The Brew Is Out There!
On this week’s replay episode of the Brew Files, we sit down in the pre-GABF mayhem to talk Pro-Am Competitions with Oleg Shpyrko, winner of the 2017 Romancing the Beer Competition, and Shaun Smith of Camarillo’s Institution Ale Company about why Pro-Am’s are a thing and what it takes to transform a potent homebrew (a 9.3% abv Imperial Stout with Cocoa, Peppers and Vanilla) into a commercial brew.
