Beer book: Brewing with Hemp: The Essential Guide

June 30, 2022Pretty Much a Press Release

The craft beer community continues to evolve and innovate, and a large driver of that change stems from experimentation with ingredients. From esteemed brewing professional Ross Koenigs comes Brewing with Hemp: The Essential Guide, the latest release from Brewers Publications.

Brewing with Hemp, the companion book to Brewing with Cannabis by Dr. Keith Villa, explores the Cannabis sativa plant from a brewer’s perspective, focusing on how hemp (which contains less than 0.3% THC), hemp flavors, and cannabinoids play in beer. Koenigs leads readers through the history, legal considerations, physiology and ecology of hemp, while helping professional brewers and homebrewers alike understand the science of cannabis and how to best utilize the popular plant in beer.

“There are many cannabis consumers who also enjoy craft beer, and I’m looking forward to sharing my vision for how hemp can be additive to an already innovative industry,” said Koenigs. “Through Brewing with Hemp: The Essential Guide, I’ll not only take readers through the process and experimentation, but I’ll also share recipes and tinctures and my experience of bringing these beers to market.”

Koenigshas been awarded numerous Great American Beer Festival medals and developed the industry’s number one craft beer of the year not once, not twice, but three times throughout his career as brewing innovations manager at New Belgium Brewing Company. In addition, his leading research and development of using hemp in beer with The Hemperor broke ground as the first legally produced hemp beer in the U.S.
