YCH HOPS has teamed up with the Pink Boots Society, a global nonprofit organization supporting women in the brewing professions, to create the Pink Boots Blend of Palisade, Simcoe, Mosaic, Citra and Loral hops. Commercial brewers were encouraged to use this collaborative blend of hops to create their own celebratory brews. A portion of the proceeds benefits the Pink Boots Society scholarship funds. These funds will be used to help women in the industry attend educational seminars, classes, certifications and tours in order to empower female beer professionals to advance their careers through education.
“Ideally our choice of blend could be used for bittering, aroma, and during dry-hop. A brewer can use this hop through the brew, or just in a single charge,” says Laura Ulrich, President of Pink Boots Society. “The blend character itself is fruity but not overly tropical, with more dominant citrus and herbal notes. The small addition of Simcoe gives the blend just a hint of old school, while other like Loral, Citra, and Palisade will help drive the fruit flavors forward. And really, who doesn’t love Mosaic, so we added a touch of her too.”
Our very own brewer, Amber Powell, who has been a part of the Pink Boots Society for 7 years, accepted the challenge! Originally a Chemistry major, Amber found her calling while bartending at a craft brewery in college.
“I was invited by the head brewer, Bryan Shimkos, to a brew day,” said Amber. “I immediately fell in love with the chemistry in brewing. I knew this was something I wanted to do every day, and that’s how my new career began.”
Amber has had great success at brewing honey rye ale before, and was excited to brew it again for a great cause. Paying homage to women in the brewing industry, Amber has named her creation Catch Her In The Rye.
“With Catch Her In The Rye, you can taste the honey upfront, but a lot of the rye comes through, as well. The Pink Boots Blend of hops compliments this honey rye ale perfectly for a tropical citrus aroma. I am excited to bring more light to women brewers around the world. There are a lot more of us than people think, and we are growing stronger every year.”
On behalf of everyone at Public House Brewing Company, we congratulate Amber on her brewing accomplishments and look forward to much more to come!
Catch Her In The Rye will be featured at our April’s Brewers Stash, and it will only be available in limited quantity. Join us at the Rolla R&D Brewpub Tuesday, April 10 at 5:30 p.m. to catch your own pint of this philanthropic brew, and let’s raise a pint to women doing amazing things in the brewing world!

Mild May
/in Uncategorized/by Public House Brewing Co.During the month of May, come in to the Rolla R&D Brewpub or St. James Taproom to enjoy special pricing on a pint of our Bird & Baby Mild ale. A light-bodied brew, this will be the first time it is available at both of our brewery locations.
With a wonderfully balanced mouthfeel, Bird & Baby Mild is refreshing, yet full of flavor. With having a lower gravity, this beer is readily suited for drinking in quantity. Light-bodied, but big on taste, this beer exhibits a low bitterness – almost sweet – malt character that is light enough for timid beer drinkers, but flavorful enough to please most die-hard beer fans.
We brew this ale as true to style as possible. Roasted barley provides a nutty, malt foundation with subtle hints of smoke. The malt is also responsible for the beautiful deep ruby hue. Genuine Fuggle hops bring a delicate harmony to this English style you’ll want to enjoy again and again.
Curious how this brew got its name? Acclaimed novelists and members of the Inklings writer’s group, J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, were regulars at a traditional pub of unique character in Oxford, England named The Eagle and Child. Nicknamed The Bird and Baby, Tolkien and Lewis drank a beer similar to this brew while letting their creative juices flow at this inspirational location.

These two cycling events offer the best of Missouri and are open to both experienced and novice cyclists. If you don’t have a bike or a desire to ride – you can still be a big part of these events by joining us any (or every) evening in the featured community stops. Each community stop will feature a free concert paired with your favorite Public House Brewing Company beers.

This event attracts approximately 800 riders from across the United States and abroad. Canadian rider Judy Siebert has participated in Big BAM since its start in 2015. As quoted in the Columbia Missourian, Siebert said, “You meet the nicest people – it’s a great community of friends. And it gets you fit, too. Life isn’t going to wait for you to grab it. You gotta go out and grab the fun. And it is fun; it’s fun for sure.”
At the Public House Brewing Company, we agree with Siebert. Life isn’t going to wait for you to grab it, so grab a Big BAM schedule today and gear up for a Missouri adventure. We hope to see you along the trails.

Farmstand Peach Ale is back
/in Uncategorized/by Public House Brewing Co.It’s always an adventure searching winding highways for roadside stands with stacks of delectable peaches. And nothing says summer better than biting into a sun-drenched, ripe peach picked fresh that morning. We’ve captured those juicy peach flavors in this golden, easy-drinking beer that has a finish as smooth as the peaches themselves.
“With this beer, we worked hard to make sure that the fruit was a good accent to the base beer and didn’t stand apart. This brings balance and allows the beer flavors to still be present,” said Josh Stacy, owner and co-founder of Public House Brewing Company.
To enjoy this customer favorite, pick up a case of our Farmstand Peach this April from a retailer near you.

Steady Yourself
/in Beer/by Public House Brewing Co.Level 2 Fall Risk is here
We are excited to announce our second release in our CampusWerks series this year, Level 2 Fall Risk Imperial IPA. This IPA is fairly strong and intensely hoppy without being too complex or malty. There are hints of fruity aromas in the background from the addition of orange blossom honey. This Imperial IPA allows you to enjoy a clean, dry finish, with high drinkability.
With this release comes a story of inspiration. In 2016, Jason Stacy, brewer and brother of co-founder Josh Stacy, overcame a dire medical situation that required surgery and a long rehabilitation. He defiantly attempted to walk in the hospital before he was truly ready to go solo. After he took a fall, caregivers labeled him a “fall risk” and he had to wear a special bracelet. Thankfully, he has since recovered and is back in our brewhouse.
“I was really glad to come back to work a few months after my surgery. I lucked out that I didn’t forget how to brew. My recovery is going great and I’m happy to be brewing, bottling, kegging, and cleaning in the brewery. Level 2 Fall Risk is a double IPA with orange blossom honey, and a bunch of ‘C’ hops. It is very well balanced and a bit dangerous,” stated Jason Stacy.
Together, we created this India Pale Ale to celebrate. Kick back with this cold brew and enjoy the Level 2 Fall Risk Official Playlist. Cheers!

Pizzas & Pints
/in Food and beer pairing/by Public House Brewing Co.There is no denying that pizza and beer go together. The only thing that could make this beloved combo better is to expertly pair our St. James Taproom’s wood-fired pizza with a pint of our craft beer. With all the pizza and pint possibilities we offer, deciding what to order can be quite the challenge! That is why we consulted with Public House Brewing Company co-founder, Josh Stacy, to create a guide to help you pair the best brew with the perfect pie:
Margherita and Rod’s Cream Ale
Ingredients: Tomato Sauce, garlic oil, fresh mozzarella, basil
This pizza’s crisp, clean flavors call for a brighter beer like Rod’s that doesn’t overpower the fresh, subtle flavors of the mozzarella.
Three Cheese and Hide and Seek Hefeweizen or Provision Farmhouse Ale
Ingredients: Tomato Sauce, garlic oil, fresh mozzarella, parmesan, provolone
Both of these choice beers offer slightly citrusy hops that will help accentuate the aromatic cheeses.
Ozark Forest Mushroom and Frisco 1501 Amber Lager or Flynn’s Irish Red
Ingredients: Blend of locally grown and harvested mushrooms, garlic oil, parmesan, arugula
The toasty, caramel flavors in these brews add a taste of sweetness to this addictive, earthy pie.
Italian Meat Lovers and Elusive IPA
Ingredients: Pepperoni, ground beef and Italian sausage, tomato sauce, garlic oil, provolone
The smooth, refreshing hops in our Elusive perfectly balances the saltiness of these meats.
Pepperoni and Elusive IPA or Dry Fly IPA
Ingredients: Tomato sauce, pepperoni, provolone
The bright touch of hops in both of these drinkable IPA’s highlight the spice of the pepperoni.
Veggie and Rod’s Cream Ale or Dry Fly IPA
Ingredients: Tomato sauce, bell peppers, red onions, Kalamata olives, green onions, provolone
With both of these well balanced brews, the delicate taste of the fresh vegetables used to make this pizza are more flavorful.
Supreme and Soest Road Circa 1995 Belgian Style Dubbel
Ingredients: Tomato sauce, olives, red onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, pepperoni, Italian sausage, provolone
The maltiness of our Soest harmonizes well with the vast array of meats and vegetables on this customer favorite pizza.
There are a plethora of great Public House Brewing Company pizza and beer combinations! Visit us at the St. James Taproom and remember to tag us when you share your favorite pair on social media.
