Over the years of running first finance and then marketing for Chicago craft brewery Revolution, he developed a keen sense of brand building and market timing. Now, he shares that expertise with beverage brands both professionally and publicly, with BrightBev as well as via entertaining videos on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. However, in this episode of the podcast, we dive deeper than the minute or two that social media typically afford, and we explore the trends that Veliky sees gaining momentum over the next 12 months. Including: major flavor trends in 2026, such as apple, yuzu, pickle, and more rethinking seasonality in fruit beer balancing philosophy and consistency with effectiveness in branding the growing segments of mid-strength and “dad-strength” beer lower performance from breweries’ long-tail brands building brands slowly to gain organic traction pricing trends that affect craft beer how quality is a make-or-break proposition in craft beer today And more.

    454: Ronald Mengerink of Dochter van de Korenaar is Still Hoping to Make the Perfect Beer
    Jan 9 2026
    De Dochter van de Korenaar (https://www.dedochtervandekorenaar.be) is unusual even for Belgium—a country full of brewers who don’t particularly enjoy being hemmed in by style definitions. Founder Ronald Mengerink has a passion for aging beer in barrels, but the expressions take a more vinous, wine-like approach than those more commonly found in North America. And his riff on port-like beer, Tout va Bien, is one that can’t be made commercially in many places due to the process—inspired by fortified wine, arresting fermentation with an addition of grain spirits. English-style barleywine, Portugese process, French name, Dutch brewer, Belgian beer—it’s an idiosyncratic but fascinating approach to beer making. In this episode, Mengerink discusses: barrel-aging everything from 3 percent ABV pale beer to port-like fortified barleywine building a brewhouse with an intentionally wide and shallow lauter tun and kettle drawing inspiration from American beers such as Bell’s Two Hearted finding balance despite big malt bills, high ABVs, and bold flavors achieving proper viscosity through extended aging conscious cellar design for intentional barrel-aging sourcing barrels from winemakers, and the differences between American and French oak how tannins reduce dissolved oxygen in barrel-aged beers And more.

  • 453: Gert Christiaens of Oud Beersel Is Preserving Oude Gueuze Heritage by Building New Flavor Bridges

    453: Gert Christiaens of Oud Beersel Is Preserving Oude Gueuze Heritage by Building New Flavor Bridges
    Jan 2 2026
    Gert Christiaens loved the beers of Oud Beersel so much that he couldn’t abide the brewery closing in 2003. So, he bought the brewery, learned to brew, and for the past 20 years has focused on preserving the legacy of traditional oude gueuze and kriek. But that mission to preserve doesn’t mean sealing beers in a time capsule. Instead, it involves finding new ways to make these classic styles relevant to drinkers wherever they may be—from the Senne Valley to South America. In this episode, Christiaens discusses: learning how to produce beer in order to continue the lambic and gueuze tradition the challeges of producing oude kriek with Schaerbeekse cherries the four main phases of lambic fermentation micro-oxygenation through wood-aging the impact of wood and barrel types on culture centering blends with refined components incorporating interesting and localized ingredients such as Chilean peppers and Japanese bamboo leaf as bridges between cultures protecting the definition of oude gueuze and oude kriek And more.
