Daniel True of Stepping Stone Brewery interviews  Zahra Tabatabai of Back Home Beer.This Episode is Sponsored by:Berkeley YeastOur Tropics yeast is based on a London Ale strain, but we added a new gene to its genome that codes for a unique thiol-releasing enzyme. The enzyme converts the precursors in barley to free thiols that smell and taste like passionfruit and grapefruit. It’s super clean. No off-flavors like burnt rubber or other sulfurous notes. Just tropical aromatics. You don’t have to do anything unusual either, like mash hopping. Just pitch dry Tropics and supercharge your hazy IPA.SennosIs your fermentation data still a mystery?

On this premiere episode we examine  Allagash White, perhaps the world's most iconic interpretation of this classic Belgian style. Yet what we think of witbier today is a recent reinvention of an older, wilder style of beer brewed in the village of Hoegaarden.In this episode, we'll hear from author Stan Hieronymus, whose Brewing With Wheat offers the definitive history of the style. Hieronymus situates the witbier style in Belgian's brewing history, and explains how it hopped the Atlantic to land in Portland, Maine. We also hear from Rob Tod, the man who founded Allagash specifically to brew the famous style from Hoegaarden. Tod founded Allagash 31 years ago, and in that time, his flagship has become a Maine standard. This is the story of witbier, the story of Allagash, and our first iconic beer.

A note from Jeff Alworth: "I am very excited to announce the launch of a new podcast: “One Iconic Beer.” The first episode will go live on Monday, and we’re busy putting together the second episode, which will follow in a month. Anyone familiar with my “Making of a Classic” series on this blog will gather the main idea. We’ll be looking at a single beer and unpacking why it has become an icon through its history, accomplishment, cultural impact, and influence. The idea for the podcast came from All About Beer editor John Holl and, full disclosure, my friend. AAB will host the podcast and John has agreed to following me down a slightly more ambitious path than he might have bargained for. We’re going to interview a couple people to tell these stories; someone from the brewery who can give a personal account of the beer and describe how it’s made, and someone who can reflect on the broader story, providing historical background and the reason for the beer’s stature. I don’t know that he planned on an involved editing process when he pitched the idea, but he was game to give it a shot. I hope the result is richer story than any single person could provide."Tune in starting on March 16 for the first episode featuring Allagash White.  ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
