Craft Beer

Craft beer has become a major player in the alcohol industry and there's no signs of it slowing down. Check out why craft beer is becoming so popular and what you can find here at CellarsMarket that you won't be able to find in the large liquor stores.

What is it? Craft beer is a type of beer that is made by small, independent breweries. These breweries are often located in small towns or rural areas, and they use traditional brewing methods to create their beers. Craft beer is usually made in small batches, and it often has a unique flavour that you won’t find in mass-produced beers.

Craft beer is becoming increasingly popular for a number of reasons. First, craft beer is seen as a more premium product than mass-produced beer. This is because craft beer is often made with higher-quality ingredients and more care and attention than mass-produced beer. As a result, craft beer often has a more complex and interesting flavour than mass-produced beer. Craft breweries are usually small operations that are located in a specific community. As a result, drinking craft beer is seen as a way to support local businesses and the local economy.

Many Aussies simply enjoy the taste of craft beer and find it to be more enjoyable than mass-produced beer. This is likely due to the fact that craft breweries often experiment with different ingredients and brewing techniques, which can lead to some truly unique and delicious beers.

There are many things that can be paired with craft beer, but what is the best thing to pair it with? Here are a few ideas to get you started: 

  • Cheese: A classic pairing, cheese and beer go together like peanut butter and jelly. The saltiness of the cheese complements the bitterness of the beer, and there are endless possibilities when it comes to choosing the right combination. 
  • Cured meats: Cured meats such as salami or prosciutto are another great option to pair with craft beer. The richness of the meat pairs well with the maltiness of the beer, and the fat content helps to cut through the bitterness.
  • Fruit: Fruits such as citrus or stone fruits can add a refreshing twist to your craft beer experience. The sweetness of the fruit helps to balance out the bitterness of the beer, and the acidity can help to increase the overall flavour.
  • Spicy food: If you're looking for something a little bit different, try pairing your craft beer with some spicy food. The heat from the spices will help to release the flavours of the beer, and it can be a really enjoyable experience.

The Zythologist Mangonium Mango & Tamarind Sour (5.6%) Esters are chemical compounds that provide a ‘fruity’ aroma to beer. In 1960, John E. Hodge reported for the first time a very specific type of ester: HDMF. This compound is produced during brewing through the Maillard reaction (see our beer Bromium for more info on this reaction). HDMF is the main contributor to the sweet aroma in mangoes. We combined mango nectar with the tartaric acid in tamarind pulp to create a perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and sour. A Berliner Weisse with mango as the element of focus makes the latest addition to our periodic table of beer....

The Zythologist Bromium Southern English Brown Ale (4.1%) The Maillard reaction is one of the reasons food turns brown when cooked. Maillard first described this reaction between an amino acid and a sugar under heat, producing hundreds of different flavour compounds. In brewing, most Maillard products appear during the kilning of grains, producing darker malts with distinct caramel, biscuit, and chocolate flavours. Over 7 varieties of such malts were used to create our version of a historical beer style. Due to its colour, this new elemental beer was coined after the only nonmetallic element which is a dark brown liquid element at...

The Zythologist Momentum Breakfast Stout (7.1%) Momentum can be understood as mass in motion. Buridan built on the ideas of Philoponus and Avicenna to define momentum as “impetus”, being proportional to the weight times the speed and only reduced by opposing forces. As parts of the equation, The Zythologist created the mass and Ranges Coffee incorporated the velocity to move this beer into momentum. Maple, cacao, vanilla, and dark malts are sped up with the caffeine to start the day with this breakfast stout and get in motion. There’s no opposing force that can stop you now! Brewed with Single Origin coffee from Ranges Coffee...
