"Shares of The Boston Beer Company (NYSE: SAM) surged to a new 52-week high Friday morning, after the brewmaster reported a third-quarter profit of $10.4 million, or 72 cents per share, on revenue of $108.7 million. The company swung to a loss of 2 cents per share in the third quarter of 2008, but attributed its turnaround to strong shipments and decreased advertising expenses." - beersage from Bookmarklet

"It’s called “San Diego Beer Week,” but this countywide celebration is actually a super-sized 10 days. The reason: Local brewers need plenty of time to explain what they’ve been doing." - beersage from Bookmarklet

"This is a quick video with Otter Creek brewmaster Mike Gerhart sharing their 2 new brews. First a new “Imperial Series” beer from Otter Creek, the Quercus Vitis Humulus- which literally translates to Oak, Grape and hop. The brew begins as a bold 27 degree plato barley-wine, warm-fermented with Bohemian lager yeast, then blended with Sauvignon Blanc grape juice and fermented a second time with a pure culture of Champagne yeast. Finally it is aged for a short time on lightly toasted French Oak. The six week process results in a complex ale which comes in at 12% ABV, with 38 IBUs." - beersage from Bookmarklet

"Talk about a brand manager’s dream: Irvine resident Rue owns a startup brewery named—what else?—The Bruery. From its humble digs in a nondescript business park that hugs the 57 Freeway, The Bruery has put sleepy Placentia on the craft-brewery landscape. Rue and his crew of family and fellow beer fanatics create innovative ales using unlikely ingredients such as lavender, maple syrup, and basil flowers." - beersage from Bookmarklet

"Walk into a corner market in any major city and look at the beer cooler. You’ll see labels with magic hats, yetis, and albino sword swallowers; labels listing ingredients like juniper, wild yeasts, blueberries, chestnuts. And yet, even in this wildly creative period of American beer-making, Sam Calagione of Dogfish Head Craft Brewed Ales stands apart as being the most experimental: the Frank Zappa of the brewing world." - beersage from Bookmarklet

"TINY emerald cones on 18-foot-tall hops plants trembled as workers whipped the freshly cut stalks into roaring machines here at Sodbuster Farms. Gnashing metal fingers then stripped off the sticky cones — female flowers of the Humulus lupulus — and poured them onto conveyor belts, setting afloat bits of hops, like ash from a fire." - beersage from Bookmarklet

"Ben Miller sent five separate entries to the Sam Adams LongShot competition, each of them brewed in a kit he built himself (including a keg with its top sawed off). Miller took great pains to package the beer, enveloping individual bottles in bubble wrap and then in a Ziploc bag. If postal workers noticed a leak, they would trash the entire package." - beersage from Bookmarklet

"The year was 1995. We had formed our company the year before and were busy bringing our first two products to market - Shoals Pale Ale and Old Brown Dog. In between more pressing daily matters I attended to various pieces of legal housekeeping, including registering our trademarks with the United States Trademark and Patent Office. I had been referred by our local attorney to a firm in DC that specialized in trademarks and patents, who promptly filed trademark applications for our logo, our trade names, as well as our catchy slogan (which we no longer use): "Make Mine a Smutty!" All this seemed like a fairly straightforward process, and I did not anticipate any problems." - beersage from Bookmarklet
