Editor’s Letter

A toast for Boulder brew lovers.

oulder County brew lovers are a lucky bunch. The myriad of local breweries we enjoy is astounding. I was delighted to learn about a new group hopping on the craft brew bandwagon—women. In For the Love of Beer (page 20), you’ll learn about an organization that empowers women to love the craft beer life and learn about the brewing process. Local breweries both in Boulder and Denver have flung open their doors to welcome this new breed of beer lover. I was recently delighted to visit The Old Mine Cidery & Brewpub in Erie. What was originally a simple “trip to check out a new spot for a story” became a tiny love affair with cider in The Old Mine is Well Worth the Trip (page 16). I think you’ll be as pleasantly surprised as I was with the delicious ciders and casual atmosphere. It’s a great thing to learn about people who make their passion their career like the owners of this fine establishment. While we tend to be a beer-loving bunch here in Boulder, man (and woman!) cannot live on beer alone. See how a Longmont couple has fused their passion for art with a penchant for spirits in Art Meets Craft (page 14). As summer comes to its bittersweet end, I encourage you to get out and enjoy the tastes of summer at a local brewery or two, support the businesses that support our community and start gearing up for winter, when a whole new round of cocktails will warm your palate.

Art Meets Craft STILL CELLARS HAS THE RECIPE FOR A BEAUTIFUL BLEND OF ART AND SPIRITS ARTICLE CAMILLE WILSON | PHOTOGRAPHY JASON R. HOUSTON

ucked away on a small street in an industrial neighborhood in Longmont, Still Cellars sits in an unassuming building. The only hints at the sky-high cool factor going on inside are the artistic, hand-made sign above the door and, on a recent night, the tandem vintage cruiser bike parked outside. Co-owners Jason R. Houston and Sadye Rose W. opened the distillery and art house in order to pursue their passion for doing and supporting art. They decided to take their interest in craft brewing and home winemaking one step further and enter the fast-growing craft distillery movement, relying on the spirits to support the operation financially when art may not. The time from concept to open doors was a long one for the pair. Licensing alone took about six months thanks to complex regulations at the city, state and federal level, and the whole process took two-and-a-half years. “There’s a saying in the construction industry that there is good, fast and cheap, and you can only pick two,” says Houston, a northern California native who recently left the solar power industry in favor of full-time pursuit at Still Cellars. “We went with good and cheap since we didn’t have a lot of money.”

Boulder County Lifestyle | September 2014

Hand-crafted everything, from the furniture and bar to electrical and lighting, makes the place itself a work of art. Although they have been distilling since 2012, Houston says the art house quietly opened to the public in January 2014. A very intentional part of the space design, the 2,200-square-foot warehouse incorporates a display wall for rotating local artists’ works, some for sale but not all. A modest performance stage lends itself to live music and readings. The room will eventually incorporate a screen for film and movie showings, and Houston is excited to host other live art such as theatrical events, poetry readings, puppetry and adult storytelling. Art certainly carries into the craft of Still Cellars’ distilled spirits. They are all certified organic and everything is made from scratch using locally sourced grains, fruit, herbs and spices. Like any craft, Houston says making spirits can be as scientific or artful as the maker chooses. “We love to incorporate the creative juices every step along the way to find a solid balance between craft and artfulness,” he says. Grain spirits made by Still Cellars include a single-malt, single-grain whiskey barley that Houston claims is the first organ-

ic whiskey made in Colorado. The vodka is fruit and grain based, gently filtered and cut with Rocky Mountain water. Other spirits include three varieties of apple brandy: Apple Straightup is an eau de vie (un-oaked brandy) made of fermented and distilled Colorado apples that are later infused with fresh apple for a complex sweetness. Each bottle uses approximately 15 pounds of apples. Apple Ginger is further infused with real dried ginger to maintain the medicinal properties, warmth and spice of the root. Apple Cinnamon, as the name suggests, is instead infused with real cinnamon. Besides the Colorado Ave. location, Still Cellars spirits are available at select restaurants and shops including Colterra in Niwot, Cured in Boulder, PJ’s Wine and Spirits Liquor Store and Sun Rose Cafe in

The Old Mine is Well Worth the Trip ARTICLE HEATHER SHONING | PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED

visited The Old Mine Cidery & Brewpub on a recent Saturday afternoon only because of the obligatory “I have to write an article about it” situation. I had put it off all week because, for me, Erie is kind of a jaunt. Finally, under a looming deadline, I ventured east. What I found in the beautiful, stately brick building on the corner of Briggs and Moffat Streets was a sweet—and tart—surprise. It made me wish I hadn’t dawdled. I also wished I could have brought my husband because he would have thoroughly enjoyed the ciders. The Old Mine is the brainchild of Mike Yeager and John Jacquat, both Erie beer lovers. They opened the doors in December of 2013, but had their grand opening celebration this past March. “John and I started The Old Mine because we wanted to create a welcoming space where the local community could connect,” Yeager says. “Erie is an awesome town full of great families and there’s nothing quite like meeting old or new friends over a hard cider or craft beer and some artisan pizza or barbecue.” Because the Handlebar Hard Cider is the novelty here, I tried the ’49er Session Cider and Cana, a red-winebarrel aged concoction. The ’49er was light in both color and on the palate. It is a refreshing fall treat, and like the menu claims, I could have sipped it all day. The Cana is much more complex. It has a darker color, likely from the red wine barrel. The taste is somewhat sour on the front end, but by sip number three I was hooked. For the cider connoisseur, a blend might tickle your fancy. Your bartender will blend your favorite cider with a beer of your choice for a fusion that will blow your beer socks off. The Old Mine keeps five ciders on tap along with more than a dozen other brews including those from Dogfish Head, Fate, Boulevard and more. The selection of bottled beer is vast with favorites from The Bruery, Avery, Trinity, etc. You’ll find everything from an American Wild IPA to a Blonde Ale to an Imperial Stout—the selection will not leave you wanting. The Old Mine offers tasters for $2.50 each or four for $9. Tap beers range from $5–8 for 5–14oz. glasses. Bottles are large (12 oz, 22oz, 375ml and 750ml) and meant to be shared. They range in price from $11–50 per bottle. For those who don’t want cider or beer (blasphemy!), they do offer a red and white wine and Breckenridge Bourbon. There are, of course, drinks for the kids, too. 16

Boulder County Lifestyle | September 2014

To stave off your hunger, The Old Mine offers just a handful of choices, but each will satisfy your craving. Pizza is, of course, a natural choice to accompany your beer, and comes in two choices—one your standard mozzarella, red sauce style and the other with the delicious Jurrasic Pork. Can’t do pork and barbeque sauce on a pizza, then have it as a sandwich. The meat is dryrubbed and injected with Handlebar Hard Cider and smoke for 12 hours. It’s tender and juicy without the grease. Don’t miss it in one form or another. The atmosphere is fun and lively. Even mid-afternoon on a Saturday, the place was abuzz with families enjoying brews and food. The indoor seating is mainly high-top tables for five, but a long community table that seats up to 17 is inviting. Outdoors you’ll find a small seating area on the street or a larger area out back with turf and room for games. On the horizon for The Old Mine includes additional production and distribution as well as an expanded menu, pairings with a local chef and more. Considering the fun atmosphere, great food and delicious ciders, I’ll be making the trek east again with husband in tow before you know it!

Art Movement ARTICLE HEATHER SHONING | PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED

new way of buying and selling art has moved into Boulder. It’s called Art Movement and is changing the way we think about art galleries. Trudi Horowitz and Susan Knickle are no strangers to brick and mortar galleries— they both worked at the same gallery one after the other, and Susan owned Blink Gallery on Pearl Street. After closing Blink, the two paired up to start something completely new. “We wanted to try a different approach,” Knickle says. They set out to create a virtual—and mobile—buying experience. The pair represents a wide variety of artists including local, regional and national artists. They have partnered with several venues throughout Boulder including Todd Reed, eTown Hall and Boulder Commons to display the art. At any given time Art Movement has $1 million in artwork on display. When displaying the artwork in a venue, the pair uses their intuitive sense of design. “When we arrive at a venue with a truckload of artwork, it can be daunting,” Knickle says. “It’s a creative process to create a harmony in the space.” A keen eye allows them to create the beautiful displays.

To sell the pieces, Horowitz and Knickle work with private collectors as well as corporations including Boulder Community Hospital, Colorado Legacy Foundation and most recently the Government Services Administration. They work diligently with their artists to tailor the works to the space. Every corporation has different protocols for the acquisition, and the duo looks forward to each new challenge of delivering artwork the client will love as well as meeting the corporate requirements. When working with a private client, Horowitz and Knickle take them through a fun and exciting process. They will guide them through several venues to view the art. They take photos of the pieces the client is interested in then sends them the images after the tour. “Clients like seeing the artwork in the venues,” Knickle says. “It’s like seeing it in a home environment rather than a gallery ART MOVEMENT

environment.” Once they decide on a piece or pieces they like, Horowitz and Knickle will install the art in their home for them to live with for a period of time to ensure they truly love the artwork. “We enjoy working with people and showing them art,” Horowitz says. They also want to ensure their artists are well-represented and that everyone is happy with the art movement in the end.

For the Love of Beer

eer has long since been thought of as a thing of men, but groups of women around the world are claiming the title of “beer connoisseur” and breaking through the stereotype. The International Organization of Barley’s Angels Chapters was founded in 2011 and now has more than 60 chapters worldwide. Deborah Cameron, with a background in event planning and a love for craft beer, learned about the Pink Boots Society, a group for women beer professionals. From there, she learned of Barley’s Angels and knew she had to start a chapter. The chapter was formed in Colorado and had its first meeting in January. “I signed up for a chapter membership, then started looking for breweries to host meetings,” Cameron says.

THE MEETINGS

Cameron runs one meeting per month in both Boulder and Denver. The very first Denver meeting happened in the middle of a blizzard but still attracted 25 women. In Boulder, the first meeting was at then-fledgling brewery, Sanitas Brewing 20

Company. The group of 23 women enjoyed pairings of four tasters with four flavors of goat cheese from Haystack Mountain. Today’s meetings are capped at 35 attendees to keep the festivities intimate so the women can interact. It also makes it easier to manage the educational aspect of each meeting. The group learns about the beers they sample as well as the brewing process. A recent meeting at Post Brewing in Lafayette featured a full fried chicken meal and a brewery tour with Brewmaster Bryan Selders. He spent the entire evening with the group sharing his knowledge and stories of beer making. “Our access to brewers is excellent,” Cameron says. “And we get to meet female brewers whenever possible.” Recently, at Crystal Springs Brewing Company, the group was treated to tasters of three craft beers along with food pairings. They also enjoyed a taste of the first beer created by Kristin, brewer and bartender. The group enjoyed interacting

with a female brewer and hearing her take on the brewing process. The Denver group toured Epic Brewing Company led by a female Brewer Kim Collins. “This is really about empowering women to learn more about beer,” Cameron says. UPCOMING EVENTS Tuesday, September 16, 7 p.m. Upslope Brewing’s Flatiron Park taproom A kickoff of Upslope’s quarterly Ladies Night events with Barley’s Angels. The events will offer craft beer education and fun, unique food and craft beer pairings. September TBD A women’s bike taproom crawl with an organization called Pink Pedals. More info to come on this. See BarleysAngelsColorado.com for more information.

A meeting at Upslope’s Flatiron Park taproom offered one of Cameron’s favorite tastings to date. Four beers were paired with four bakery items. The favorite: Upslope Thai Style White IPA with lemon tart. “We focus on developing our palates,” Cameron says. “We’ve paired beers with cheeses, salsas and desserts.” An August 14th meeting took place at Oskar Blues’ Hops & Heifers Farm. The group started in the Tasty Weasel Taproom for a tour. Next they were whisked away on the Hop trolley to the farm. The third stop was at the restaurant for a nacho bar and beers. Finally, the trolley returned the group to the taproom and their cars. Other events included beer and pie at Renegade Brewery Company and a blind tasting at Left Hand Brewing Company led by Gerry Leary, owner of Boulder’s Unseen Bean coffee shop. THE GROUP

“This group isn’t just about beer. It’s about friendships, networking and learning about beer,” Cameron says. The group has no membership dues. You become a member by signing up for the email newsletter or by liking the group’s page on Facebook. Each outing does require the purchase of a ticket, and most range in price from $15–20. The price includes all drinks, food and gratuities. Cameron does everything she can to keep the ticket prices low so the group is inclusive. “I started this group because I love craft beer,” she says. “I want as many other women as possible to be introduced to it.” BARLEY’S ANGELS COLORADO

Giving Back

Pollination Planet Gets a Buzz ARTICLE JULES MARIE | PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED

ffectionately known as the Queen Bee, Gretchen Heine buzzes around the county teaching about the importance of pollinators like bees, bats, butterflies and hummingbirds. Her popular hands-on classes at schools, clubs and Whole Foods are interactive and include a functional pollinator habitat kids create and bring home to their own backyard. “Every time I teach a kids’ class they leave with a functional habitat, whether a hummingbird feeder or a native bee box because it’s important for them to understand the vital connection between pollinators and the food they eat,” says Heine, founder of the non-profit organization, Pollination Planet. “I want to empower them to put the bumble pot in the ground or hang the feeder; it’s a visual reminder that they’re doing something.” Heine’s classes meet the Colorado Academic Standards in Science and have garnered the interest of local media as she’s been featured on several TV shows, particularly during national pollinator awareness week. “It’s amazing something so small can have such a big impact on the world,” says Sienna Heine, who watches her mother tend to the 20,000 bees she keeps in their backyard bee hives. Backyard hives have gained in popularity due to a growing awareness that the honeybee is in trouble. With a nearly 30 percent decline in the global bee population over the last decade, Heine stresses that nearly one-third of all the food we grow depends on pollinators and even one small step like planting organic flowers will help the pollinators. Golden Blossom Honey is a member of 1% For the Planet, as is Planet Pollinators. Heine describes it as the ideal match when Golden Blossom Honey contacted her to partner with them. “Golden Blossom told me they were so glad they found me; they said they were waiting for someone like me to come along and I am so thankful for their support,” says Heine, who will speak at the New York City Beekeepers Association and teach several kids’ classes at Whole Foods Market in New York City. She’ll also make a trip to a New Jersey to help a Hurricane Sandy-affected community that wants to include pollinator habitats in their green rebuilding efforts. 26

Boulder County Lifestyle | September 2014

“We teach kids and adults about the vital connection between pollinators and our food supply and the easy ways to help make a positive difference. I know people can get overwhelmed so we provide practical ways to help. It’s important to do one or even two things and you’ll know you’re making a difference,” says Heine. She suggests starting simple by hanging a hummingbird feeder in the yard or planting f lowers which attract pollinators. Heine started a front yard habitat this year by purchasing Garden-in-a-Box from the Center for ReSource Conservation—a plant-bynumber xeriscape gardening kit making it a snap to start a pollinator garden.

805.722.5800 PollinationPlanet.org

9 Tips for Protecting Pollinators 1. Create pollinator-friendly habitat with native flowering plants 2. Avoid pesticides 3. Purchase organic plants and flowers from a local nursery 4. Leave areas of your yard undisturbed for ground nesting bees 5. Eat organic produce and support farmers who don’t use harmful pesticides 6. Become a backyard beekeeper 7. Lobby decision-makers to do more to protect pollinators 8. Buy local honey 9. Spread the word about the importance of pollinators

Driver's Notebook

The Audi A7 Quattro

DIESEL IS DELIGHTFUL IN LUXURY A7 HATCHBACK ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY TOM STRONGMAN

he Audi A7 quattro, from its sloping-roof, low-tail silhouette to the huge hatchback that opens up station-wagon-type cargo space when the seats are folded, is quite unlike any other car in the luxury segment. The fact that it is offered with a 3.0-liter turbodiesel that is rated at 38 miles per gallon on the highway also differentiates it from most of its competitors. The A7 sits just below the A8 in Audi’s lineup, and there are four variants. The standard model has a 310-horsepower V-6 and the sporty S7 has a 420-horsepower V-8. All have Audi’s quattro all-wheel-drive system that divides power from front to back and side to side. The turbodiesel develops 240 horsepower, but most important, 428 pound-feet of torque, all of which is available at less than 2,000 rpm. Torque is the motive force you feel the moment you mash the throttle and it powers the A7 to 60 miles per hour in 5.5 seconds, just one-tenth slower than the standard A7. There is no diesel clatter or sooty exhaust, and the fact that it sips fuel is a bonus. The eight-speed automatic can be shifted manually. The RS 7 will be available later in the year with a 560-horsepower engine that yanks it to 60 in 3.6 seconds. Audi calls the A7 a five-door coupe rather than a sedan, and that seems a fitting moniker. The fastback roof ends in a tail that is lower than most hatchbacks, giving it a distinct profile. A tiny tail spoiler rises at 80 mph for added stability. Audi interiors are beautifully crafted and executed. The test car’s matte wood trim was an elegant accent to the dark leather and bright trim. A center-mounted 7-inch LCD screen rotates out of the instrument panel when the car starts. Another screen, situated between the speedometer and tachometer, delivers a variety of information that the driver can select with a button on the steering wheel. A mouselike knob on the console controls audio, navigation and vehicle settings. It is one of the easier systems to use. It has dedicated buttons for commonly-used controls and a unique touchpad that interprets handwritten input. You can write numbers with your finger or scroll over maps with one finger. The test car was equipped with the $5,900 Bang & Olufsen audio system whose tweeters rise out of the corners of the instrument panel. The sound quality was good but not worth the price.

Boulder County Lifestyle | September 2014

In my view, blind-spot monitoring, lane assist and adaptive cruise control are options that should be standard for a car with a base price of $66,900. The 12-way adjustable front seats were comfortable, but I would prefer more lateral support. Rear-seat legroom is more than adequate for adults. The test car’s optional 20-inch wheels and summer tires add some cornering performance but are vulnerable to real-world potholes and would have to be replaced with winter tires in northern climates. PRICE

The base price of the A7 TDI Quattro is $66,900. Options on the test car included the Bang & Olufsen sound system, four-zone climate control, ventilated front seat adaptive cruise control, lane assist, corner-view camera, sport suspension and 20-inch wheels with summer tires. The sticker price was $81,395. WARRANTY

Four years or 50,000 miles

AT A GLANCE point: The A7 is sleek and stylish. Part station wagon and part luxury sedan, it is both practical and plush. The turbodiesel is appealing for its quick throttle response, strong acceleration and outstanding fuel mileage. counterpoint: Like many of its German competitors, the A7’s base price balloons dramatically when popular safety and convenience options are added. 2014 Audi A7 Quattro TDI engine: 3.0-liter, 240-horsepower turbodiesel V-6 transmission: Eight-speed automatic All-wheel drive wheelbase: 114.7 inches curb weight: 4,266 pounds base price: $66,900 as driven: $81,395 mpg rating: 24 in the city, 38 on the highway
