Schlafly Beer, the original independent craft brewery in St. Louis, has announced the return of its popular seasonal beer Raspberry Hefeweizen. This hazy beer is fermented with real fruit, making it a true fruit beer rather than a fruit-flavored beer. Raspberry Hefeweizen…
Cheer on the home team while sipping on a beer from an iconic St. Louis brewery. You’ll find a variety of beers on top, from coffee stout to IPAs to fruity sours. Food options include burgers, chicken wings and prime rib sandwiches. Open most days from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m…
Like me, most alert readers (ARs) have probably heard of ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that some college students are using to write papers. Before any ARs even ask the question, I want to say for the record that every word in every column I’ve ever written has been my own. I’ve never used ChatGPT for anything and have no intention of doing so. As long as we’re on the subject, I should add that, unlike the 19-year old grandmaster Hans Niemann, I have never used AI to cheat at chess nor been accused of doing so.

IPA continues to be craft’s predominant category, with concentrated hop products and bioengineered yeasts leading a wave of innovation…But what about those styles that, for whatever reason, are wrongly overlooked? See what Schlafly’s Lead Brewer has to say.
It’s hard to believe that it was just a year ago that the horrors in Ukraine began to unfold. As may be the case with many alert readers (ARs), my initial shock and disbelief have gradually turned to numbness. It’s almost as if I’ve become inured to the barbarism that now seems sickeningly mundane. I can’t help but be reminded of Hannah Arendt’s memorable phrase “the banality of evil” in writing about The Third Reich. It’s in this context that I want to share part of the Christmas message my wife and I sent out two months ago.
Schlafly CEO Fran Caradonna sat down with the folks at Better On Draft, a Michigan craft beer podcast, to talk all things beer – they discussed changes in the industry throughout the decades, how Schlafly has grown over the last 30 years, and what our future holds.
