Belgian beer buffs, take note: Chuck Cook of Drink Belgian Beer (https://drinkbelgianbeer.com) preps us for his trip to Cantillon Zwanze Day in Brussels and corrects Jake's misconceptions about that fine brewing establishment.

But Chuck's a knighted Belgian beer expert who's been to Belgium more than 40 times! So you won't want to miss his insights.
First up though, Mike, Brandy, and Jake crack open NRG's German-style Kosch Service —think small, endlessly refilled glasses until you say "stop!" And don't miss Silver Branch's traditional service, either. But the events foam over with the Cantillon Zwanze Day at Sovereign if you can't join Chuck in Brussels, showcasing a two-year seaweed adventure in brewing that's been taking a deep dive—literally underwater!Seaweed in beer? You bet! From gin to saison, including Josh Chapman and Right Proper Brewing Company, seaweed is in.

Roll out the barrels and pop open those NA brews, because The DC Beer Show hosts are back with an episode that's all malt, hops, and sober sips! Let's dive into episode "Valley Malt: A Grain Changer" with Michael Stein, Brandy Holder, Jacob Berg, and Jordan Harvey at the helm, sharing their love for barley and bubbles.

They're buzzing about the local scene, too, with a beer share Sunday at Third Hill Brewing, a toast to women in brew at Lost Generation, and trivia night at Other Half on the horizon.
Making waves in the world of wort, the conversation turns to the rise of non-alcoholic (NA) beers. Brandy happily raises her glass to the sophisticated flavors, while Michael laments the hit-or-miss quality of these sober suds. Loaded with potential, NA beers like DC Brau's canned cutie and Hoplark's hoppy hydration have our hosts eager for each innovative pour.
Then enter the grain guru herself, Andrea Stanley from Valley Malt, crafting malt that's grounded in sustainability and local love. She's mashing it up with an all-local mantra and paving the path for a greener glass with each malty handshake to brewers, big and small. Andrea's story spans from local wheat wonders in 2009 to Czech malt pilgrimages—all for the perfect pint!
Valley Malt's sister company, Ground Up, also debuted, spinning tales of stone-milled flours and pasta that hug your soul and the soil. It's a grain revolution, with every starchy strand supporting the locavore lifestyle and nutrient-dense deliciousness.
As we wrap up, the team at Bluejacket earns a shout-out for championing sustainable agriculture by featuring Valley Malt's craft. Each pallet supports an acre of green dreams, making each sip an echo of earth love.
Michael and the crew bid adieu with craft beer events to mark on your calendar, reminding us all to sip sustainably and support the malty masterminds like Andrea. So settle in, listeners, for a hoppy ride through the NA beer buzz and malt's mighty role in our favorite frothy friends.

In this episode of the DC Beer Show, Papa Beer joins Jake, Mike and Brandy to talk about August events, from the Urban Garden / Red Bear Collab (Peachy Keen) to the Denizens Open House and DC Brau's celebration of Jerry Garcia's birthday.
This leads the gang to demand that local breweries start having Steely Dan appreciation days because STEELY DAN is the best band ever.
Jake has an in-depth conversation with Dynasty Brewing's Favio Garcia, an elder statesman of DMV brewing who's been making great craft beer in the region for over 30 years.
