First JAPIFEST takes the party to Cieneguilla October has come and gone but that doesnt deter Perus ale makers from having another beer festival. Is it even possible to have too many beer festivals in one year? The real ale world has been quietly growing in Peru over the last few years. Small breweries producing strong, flavorsome beer have been popping up across the country. It used to be impossible to get real ale here, unless it was imported. Now there are several breweries stepping out of the shadows and getting their beers sold at reputable restaurants and in fancy bars across the country. You may have seen them. Small, squat bottles with bright labels and mysterious names, boasting high percentages. Theyre appearing in more and more drinking and eating establishments and enjoy a growing population of firm fans. After a disappointing show at Misturas new beer world this year, Perus real ale breweries are showing what theyve got to offer, keen to prove that highly carbonated lager isnt the only thing available for beer lovers in this country! The festival, held at the Casa Tupac cultural center in Casa Tupac the first weekend in December, will be bringing thirsty punters more than 60 different beers from 16 breweries across the country. Beer making enthusiasts can watch live beer making and hear talks on the art of brewing. Those who prefer to drink than make beer can enjoy the good music and a good atmosphere. Oh, and the excellent beer. The three-day festival is being organized by the Asociacion de Cervecerias Artesanales del Peru (CAP) and Casa Tupac. Lima breweries will be representing, with Barbarian, Barranco Beer Company, Cumbres, Lunahuana, Hops, Maddok, Magdalena, Nuevo Mundo, Saqra, and Teach; El Viejo Keller and Melkim are coming from Arequipa; Sacred Valley and Zenith from Cusco; Sierra Andina from Huaraz; and 7 Vidas from Tacna.

Copa Mundial de Catar: espere lo inesperado By Por JOHN LEICESTER y ROB HARRIS | Associated Press Tue, Dec 16, 2014 10:17 PM SGT More DOHA, Catar (AP) Estadios modernos climatizados a la perfeccion. Aficionados que visitan una region decidida a demostrar que puede montar un gran espectaculo y ofrecer experiencias unicas. Todo rodeado de dudas acerca de si las mujeres, los gays y los amantes de la cerveza se sentiran a gusto. La Copa Mundial del 2022 a jugarse en Catar, el emirato fabulosamente rico del Golfo Persico con grandes reservas de petroleo y gas natural y ambiciones descomunales para una nacion tan pequena, promete ser una experiencia unica. A medida que los proyectos de los arquitectos salen de sus estudios y comienzan a apilarse ladrillos en medio del desierto, las autoridades de Catar que organizan la primera Copa Mundial jamas hecha en el Medio Oriente ofrecieron entrevistas exclusivas a la Associated Press para contar lo que va a ser la experiencia del aficionado dentro de ocho anos. EL LUGAR Con las terceras reservas de gas natural mas grandes del mundo, Catar tiene medios de sobra para cumplir la promesa del slogan de la Copa Mundial: "Espere algo asombroso". Los visitantes a la impresionante capital, Doha, veran la impactante silueta de una ciudad en donde hace 35 anos solo habia arena. La riqueza de Catar, cuyos ciudadanos estan segundos en el mundo en la lista de paises con mas ingresos per capita, es evidente en todos lados, incluidas las carteras de lujo que lucen las mujeres, que van cubiertas de pies a cabeza. Por la noche, las calles se llenan de autos y motocicletas carisimos que brotan de torres futuristas de vidrio y acero. Doha podria ser el unico lugar en el mundo donde se ven avisos como uno publicado en un diario local que decia: "Busco un palacio urgentemente". ESTADIOS Fueron seleccionadas 12 sedes, aunque no esta claro si todas seran usadas. Los disenos de los arquitectos dan una idea de lo que se puede esperar. El estadio Lusail a ser construido en el norte de Doha, donde termina la ciudad y comienza el desierto, albergaria el partido inaugural y la final. "Sin ser frivolos con nuestro dinero, sin ser extravagantes, queremos una vision arquitectonica emblematica", con un "diseno y terminacion revolucionarios", declaro el director del proyecto Tamim el-Abed. Dio a entender que habra mucha alta tecnologia y que el aficionado podra ver repeticiones de las jugadas en sus tabletas, sentado en el estadio. "La proyeccion hacia el futuro es importante para nosotros porque uno ve la velocidad con que se mueve la tecnologia", indico el-Abed. "No quieres disenar algo que, llegado el momento, va a ser algo que ya se ha hecho". EL CALOR Que calor? El aficionado debera llevar sweaters si, como se espera, la FIFA cambia las fechas y el torneo se juega en noviembre/diciembre o enero/febrero. Las noches son frias en noviembre y la brisa marina hace que no se sienta tanto el calor de dia. Pero el polvo del desierto y de la construccion provoca cosquilleos en las gargantas. Incluso si la FIFA cambia las fechas y no se juega en pleno verano, en junio/julio, habra aire acondicionado en todas las instalaciones, como se prometio. "Habra aire acondicionado en las estaciones, en las zonas de concentracion de aficionados, en las filas y en el ultimo kilometro y medio (milla) cuando uno se dirige al estadio", dijo el-Abed. Se empleara energia solar, producida por una planta de 100 megavatios que estara lista en el 2017, de acuerdo con Dario Cadavid, que coordina toda lo relacionado con el aire acondicionado. La temperatura en el terreno de juego debera girar en torno a los 26 grados Celsius (79 Fahrenheit) y jamas superar los 28. El-Abed aseguro que no habra calores "sofocantes" como los que se registraron en algunos estadios en la Copa Mundial de Brasil este ano. MEDIO ORIENTE Las autoridades de Catar dicen que 2.000 millones de personas viven a no mas de cuatro horas de avion de Doha. Es por ello que el torneo podria tener un sabor al Medio Oriente. El Cairo, Teheran, Bagdad y Beirut estan a no mas de tres horas. Estambul a cuatro. Los estados del golfo se encuentran a la vuelta de la esquina y Riad, la capital de Arabia Saudita, a seis horas de auto. "Seran recibidos por cataris, junto con libaneses, tunecinos, marroquies, jordanos, iraquies, sauditas y kuwaities", comento Mushtaq al-Waeli, director ejecutivo de Josoor, instituto catari que ofrece cursos sobre la organizacion de eventos deportivos para gente del Medio Oriente y el norte de Africa. El Medio Oriente en general espera usar el Mundial para mostrarle al mundo que el conflicto entre Israel y los palestinos, el terrorismo islamico y los hidrocarburos no son lo unico que define la region. "Tenemos que acabar con esa percepcion de lo que somos", sostuvo Hassan al-Thawadi, director del comite organizador de Catar. DIVERSION Doha no es Rio de Janeiro, que vibro al ritmo de samba, futbol y tragos durante el Mundial del 2014. El visitante puede comprar alcohol solo en los mejores hoteles en Doha, mostrando sus pasaportes. "Las mujeres en Catar no pueden ingresar al bar en ningun momento", dice un cartel en un hotel de Doha. "Habra alcohol en ciertas areas, en otras no. El alcohol no es parte de nuestra religion, de nuestra tradicion", expreso al-Thawadi. "El aficionado no podra caminar por la calle o dar la vuelta a la esquina y comprar bebidas. Eso no es asi aqui. Pero habra lugares donde podran adquirirlo". Para Regard Aboo Yakou, jefe de operaciones de la firma constructora Hill International, sera un mundial sin ambiente. "No hay nada que hacer", sostuvo. "Al aficionado le gusta beber, armar lio, hacer fiestas en las calles, sacarse la ropa y cosas por el estilo. No podran hacerlo aqui". MUJERES Y GAYS Las mujeres visitantes no tendran que cubrirse casi todo el cuerpo, como las cataris, pero tampoco podran mostrar demasiado, porque eso no es bien visto. "Hay que tener cierto recato", dijo Deepa Puvanik, una mujer de la India que lucia vaqueros y un chal al ir a un partido de futbol en noviembre, en el que Catar le gano a Corea del Norte. "Desde ya, un bikini no es aceptable", agrego. Al preguntarsele que tipo de recibimiento pueden esperar los gays, el ministro de deportes de Catar Salah bin Ghanem bin Nasser al-Ali, respondio: "Estamos estudiando todos estos temas. Nos podemos adaptar, ser creativos para que la gente venda y disfrute los partidos sin perder la esencia de nuestra cultura y respetando las preferencias de los visitantes". ___

Real ale in the spotlight at the Festival de la Cerveza Artesanal 13, 2014 Comments - A woman serves samples of local craft beer during a beer and chocolate tasting event on November 12, 2014 in Tijuana, Mexico. Photo - David Maung Una estufa, paciencia, cuatro ingredientes y una olla tamalera son los talismanes que bien usados pueden convertir a un aficionado a la cerveza en cervecero. Asi empezaron Gustavo del Castillo e Ivan Garcia, de la recien fundada cerveceria Ludica Artesanal. Haciendo cerveza en casa llevamos poquito mas de tres anos pero cerveceria formalmente en mayo de este ano, cuenta Del Castillo, en una degustacion de su cerveza organizada en conjunto con el espacio The Kitchen y la chocolateria Venus. Hay un brinco natural de hacer tu cerveza en casa y despues llevarla a hacer tu propia marca, explica del Castillo. Empezamos hacer cerveza en casa y a buscar otros homebrewers aqui en Tijuana y no encontramos, asi que terminamos formando un club y tenemos 60 miembros, fui el primer presidente y la verdad es que ya cuando menos pensamos ya estabamos pensando en hacerlo para vender asi que sacamos los ahorros y compramos un equipo mas grande. Con el equipo nuevo, Ludica Artesanal hace tandas de 120 litros de cerveza, es decir, unos 400 o 500 litros mensuales que lleva a vender al bar 1994, BBC Tasting room y la tienda Beer box en Tijuana. Ofrecen una sidra de manzana con 8.5 por ciento de volumen de alcohol, una american pale ale llamada Supersmash, una lager fermentada llamada Descomunal, una hoppy Belgian Ale llamada Aura y estan experimentando para pronto vender una cerveza tipo Belga llamada Ermitano. Los insumos los traemos de donde podemos, la mayoria de la malta la compramos con los Funes que fue la primera tienda de hombrewers que hubo aqui en Tijuana y lo que no hay lo importamos de San Diego, como casi todos, porque alla hay buena calidad y variedad que necesitamos, dice del Castillo. Ludica es solo una de las cervecerias que parecen salir de todas partes en Baja California y que ha estan siendo reconocidas a nivel nacional. Este ano las cervecerias de Baja California arrasaron con los premios otorgados en La competencia profesional Cerveza Mexico 2014, incluyendo mejor cerveceria, mejor cerveza y primer lugar en cerveza IPA y Belga, que se llevo la cerveceria Insurgente. Seguidos por la cerveceria ensenadense Wendlandt con dos premios y la propia Ludica que apenas salida al mercado gano segundo lugar en Pale Ale. Francisco Talamante, de cerveceria Canneria de Ensenada, considera que el movimiento de la cerveza artesanal que ahora toma fuerza fue un movimiento natural, que se gesto a finales de los anos 90, paralelo al boom gastronomico de la region y como una alternativa complementaria a la propuesta vinicola del Valle de Guadalupe. Este se ha ido enriqueciendo incorporando experiencias de California, estado con una larga historia cervecera con raices muy notorias en San Diego. Aunque creciendo, hay muchos factores que frenan el desarrollo de esta industria que aun hoy no llega ni al 1 por ciento del mercado total de cerveza en Mexico. Entre los retos esta la falta de insumos -que en el caso de la frontera suele suplir con productos importados- competencia desleal de grandes cerveceras e impuestos mal planeados que encarecen la produccion y venta de cerveza, repercutiendo en el precio. En todo el mundo hay cervecerias cercanas a zonas vinicolas y con movimiento gastronomico fuerte, es lo natural, dice Talamante. Lo que toca es unirnos, ser solidarios y promover el trabajo de todos, educar sobre el tema para cambiar la legislacion y cabildear por impuestos mas justos, que esto sea visto como una oportunidad para todos.

Super special tickets available for $10 at High Desert Brewing Co., 1201 W. Hadley Ave., and Main Street Bistro & Ale House, 139 N. Downtown Mall, in Las Cruces. Information, visit nmbeer.org (Comanche Creek and Taos Mesa are) taking beer that you could never find in Las Cruces, Goblet said. The most northern (breweries) are going to the most southern most part of the state. Eventgoers will receive a commemorative Dia de la Cerveza glass for sampling and purchasing beer from the participating breweries. Food trucks also will be at the event to help curb appetites. Two bands, Latin Funktion from Las Cruces and Radio La Chusma from El Paso will entertain the festival crowd. In New Mexico every day is Dia del la Cerveza, Goblet said.

Trademark Application for "LA CERVEZA PERFECTA PARA LO QUE VENGA" Filed by Anheuser-Busch Companies

Last week, our colleague Sarah Bennett dropped by to review the excellent Baja Beer Fest that happened in Avenida Revolucion two weeks ago. Last week was the Tijuana Beer Fest; there's another Baja Beer Fest every spring, and the Expo de la Cerveza Artesanal in May. Baja loves its beer, and loves an excuse to party. So what's an itinerant beer geek to do when there's not a huge craft beer festival conveniently located a three-dollar taxi economico ride from the border? Baja breweries typically don't have tasting rooms, though that is slowly going to change over the next year or so. What Baja does have is craft beer bars. We've written about some of them before, and they all seem to be located within a few steps of Revolucion, but the granddaddy of them all at the moment is Baja Craft Beers, or BCB for short, and is nowhere near downtown. It's located in a warehouse on Calle Orizaba, just off Blvd. Aguacaliente in the Neidhart district. Many taxi drivers don't know it yet; once they turn right on Orizaba from Aguacaliente, look on the right side for a small shingle that says "BCB". It shouldn't cost more than $7-$10 from the border in a taxi. Dave Lieberman The door to beer paradise There are 42 beer taps and six enormous coolers inside, concentrating mostly on Mexican craft beer, but with plenty of German, Belgian and American beers as well. The list is a well-thumbed clipboard, and the bartenders are extremely friendly and knowledgeable (and, importantly to US beer people, bilingual). The beer is well-priced, especially by US standards, with most pours costing 50-70 pesos ($4-$5.50). There's also a full kitchen, so you can have dinner to wash down the often-potent brews. The kitchen is a great improvement on the usual fried snacks that beleaguer beer bars in the United States, though the menu changes too often for individual food review to be useful. Be aware as you drink that some of the breweries, like Ki'Li and Ley Seca, are essentially nanobreweries, producing just a barrel or two at a time from small fermenters; a beer you fall in love with at BCB one week may not be there the next.

Non-Profit Beer? Cerveza as Art Project | Los Angeles | Artbound | KCET

Giuseppe De Bernardi,  Cerveza as Art Project By Pilar Tompkins Rivas Meet Cerveza Tupac, a delectable home-brewed beer crafted by the artist and arts professional Giuseppe de Bernardi. Hailing from Lima, Peru, de Bernardi has made his way to Southern California for a residency at 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica in the month of April. He heads a non-profit artist residency program called Tupac Cultural Association, which has supported contemporary artists in Peru since 2001. This dynamic arts center offers studio space, has an international visiting artist residency program, and hosts multi-disciplinary art events throughout the year. In a country where there is almost no opportunity to receive grants or state funding for contemporary art, de Bernardi developed the beer as a way to generate financial support for the artists at Tupac. Revenue from the beer sales goes directly to the center's numerous programs. But Cerveza Tupac is not only a product; it is also considered an on-going artwork that explores the idea of generating community. In contemporary art, this kind of concept falls under the genres of Relational Aesthetics and Social Practice. There is a precedent for artists making food products as art. Argentine-born, Thai artist Rirkrit Tiravanija is known for his elaborate meals served in galleries and museum spaces, exploring the social relationships that emerge through collective activity. The Danish artist group Superflex worked in collaboration with a farmers' cooperative in the Brazilian Amazon to produce a version of the popular South American soda-like beverage guarana outside of the sphere of multinational corporations' controlling interests in the region. L.A.-born and Mexico-based artist Eduardo Sarabia started distilling his own tequila brand as an artwork after relocating to the state of Jalisco, Mexico, the heart of all tequila and mezcal production. And locally, the art collective Fallen Fruit has been working since 2004 to investigate the uses of urban space, mapping out the city based on its existing trees that produce fruit falling in public areas for potential consumption. Communal jam-making sessions, nighttime neighborhood fruit tours and the production of limited editions of spirits infused with fruit off the streets of Los Angeles then followed. Not unlike the projects above, all of which have been exhibited in formal art contexts, Cerveza Tupac has been the subject of gallery exhibitions in Lima. In one installation, billboard-sized ads come photomurals promoting the beer were displayed. One image showed a large group of artists gathered around a long table, all enjoying a glass of the frothy, cool beverage. Exploring art-making through the lens of commercial branding, a slogan reads, "The first beer in the world created to support contemporary art is Peruvian." If beer advertising can be said to promote lifestyle, Cerveza Tupac markets community, artists, and the contemporary cultural scene in Peru. In addition, it provides a direct strategy for supporting the region's arts programming and functions as a platform for cultivating an agenda of contemporary art. The beer's consumers are thereby positioned not only as collective stakeholders in the body politic of Peru's cultural capital, but also as participants within the ethos of postmodern theory. As such, the artistic and social agency of Cerveza Tupac recalls the interest in the aesthetics of everyday life as defined in both Relational Aesthetics and Situationism, yet plays with the anti-consumerist and revolutionary principles associated with the latter movement. The beer's logo itself (and that of the arts center) pays homage to Peru's famed indigenous rebel leader Tupac Amaru II and is reminiscent of the iconic image of Marxist revolutionary and guerillero Che Guevara pervasive in popular culture. The leftist ideologies within Peruvian socio-political history have also played a role in determining the current conditions in which de Bernardi has developed Cerveza Tupac's artistic posturing. Through the 1980s and early 1990s, the contemporary, cultural environment in Peru was held static under an oppressive atmosphere, contributed to in part by the presence of the Maoist guerrilla organization the Shining Path. For more than a decade, guerrilla warfare took place in rural areas of the country, and at times, escalated into attacks in Lima resulting in violence against civilians. As the group's activities declined in the two decades following the capture of its leader Abimael Guzman in 1992, the cultural environment at large has opened up and the Peruvian art scene, centered almost exclusively in Lima, is finding a renewed sense of momentum. While the generation of current mid-career and mature artists was subject to the constraints of the former period, younger artists are operating from a more open slate. New contemporary art galleries, such as Galeria Revolver, are making their way to international art fairs. Mexican artist Yoshua Okon, who received his MFA from UCLA and was based in Los Angeles for many years, is an artist in their stable, along with Peruvian artists Ishmael Randall Weeks, Jose Carlos Martinat and Gilda Mantilla (who coincidentally was born in LA and was one of the artists representing Peru at the 50th Venice Biennial), and Argentine Matias Duville. In recent years, Lima has hosted a biennial public art exhibition called Centro Abierto that transforms downtown Lima through temporary public interventions and sculptures. Open to artists based in Latin America, the initiative has commissioned recognized and emerging contemporary artists from throughout the region to present transitory works in the spirit of the Munster Sculpture Project. De Bernardi's Cerveza Tupac finds common ground in Los Angeles, where many artists are invested in the goals of Social Practice and are also finding ways to enact micro-economic development projects. With increasing frequency, L.A. artists are developing self-funding initiatives using new platforms of social media. Kickstarter, for example, is a progressively popular way to raise the relatively small, but critical funds needed for production costs. Projects that may very well be part of programming at an arts institution utilize these crowd funding strategies as an option in the face of limited organizational budgets. By inviting friends, family, and the arts community to invest in the realization of their work, artists are creating collective interest in their artistic ideas and goals. Despite the fact that in Los Angeles the name Tupac might immediately conjure up an association with famed rapper Tupac Shakur, it is the Peruvian hero for which the California Love performer was named that is the emblem behind de Barnardi's brew. Tupac Amaru II, indigenous leader in colonial-era Peru, has historically been an important symbol for the struggle for independence and the rights of the proletariat. De Bernardi's aim is to address the needs of the artists and the creative community in Lima and to strategize a means of self-support for their endeavors. In the spirit of revolutionary leader Tupac Amaru II, de Bernardi and his collaborators seek for artists the most important freedom of all: independence. Dig this story?
