Favorite Brewing Music

[PoorBoy]

i threw some portishead on last brew day. which was my only brew day to date...

next brew day is monday!

 

[Natas]

I've got a "brew" mix on the ipod I crank up. It's a bit all over the place with anything from Morphine, Grant Lee Phillips, Dead Can Dance, to Mozart, Wagner, Mahler, to Pink Floyd, Slayer, Pantera, To The Exploited, Minor Threat, TSOL, etc. But no hippy jam bands stuff what-so-ever. That stuff will rot your wort.

Random, yes, but it curiously enough fits, just like the Darkside of the Moon album with the Wizard of Oz.
Once had a boilover queue up with the scream at the beginning of an Exploited song, and other random oddities like that.

 

[PWalk]

I either put the ipod on shuffle and it'll serve up some Snoop Dogg followed up by CCR and then the soundtrack to the video game Oblivion.

No Christmas music allowed.

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

Local radio.

 

[mmb]

Anything from Bluegrass to Punk covers of 60's songs.

Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies rocks!

 

[Arneba28]

Mine Changes based on the brew and my mood. When I brewed up my american ale it was country, and I can just barely tolerate country but I was in the mood.

Normally though, its System of A Down, Rage Against the Machine, Tool and a little Metallica.

Rock On.

But on Occation I break out all my old Trance and DnBass CD and dance while brewing

 

[thataintchicken]

Coheed and Cambria. Something about it just keeps me motivated in the kitchen or when brewing.

 

[BlackTieBrewing]

Talking Heads.. nothing like some 80's music

 

[NikolausXX]

When making beer, I like to listen to metal. Anything from Black Sabbatch to Slipknot. Seems like the metal, makes the brewmaking go all the better! I dont listen to anything when making apfelwein, as its quick and easy!

 

[GIusedtoBe]

My wife bitching!

[nukebrewer]

Usually a mix of alternative and country, whatever comes on my iPod.

 

[Endovelico]

I love Metal myself (mainly Black, Thrash, Black/thrash and Doom sub-genres) but can't see myself listening to it WHILE brewing, just seems anti-climatic and destracting. Maybe once i get more experience.

Doom could work though.

 

[Fat Guy Brewing]

My wife bitching!

SWMBO telling me the house stinks.

 

[chillHayze]

My wife bitching!

That is too funny! Like my buddy says, when I drive, I usually have the GPS on the dash and my personal nagavator in the passenger seat.

 

[NikolausXX]

Well my wife bitching occurs sometimes, but usually not. Usually just wants to know when I get a free minute, during mash, or during boil between hop additions. I cant bring myself to listen to much other than metal doing anything lately! I am almost 30 years old now, and still love the powerful guitar, and drums of metal. Watching the boil, with some metallica (the good stuff) blaring in the garage, is like a vacation for me.

 

[FreakinA]

I saw a video on youtube where a bunch of rednecks were brewing to Freebird, so that always starts off the brew. I normally play my kill mix that I used when playing video games.

 

[5gBrewer]

Jazz - anything from classic combos to avante garde
Metal - Ayreon/Avantasia/SymphonyX

Mostly those two genres, but I listen to and play just about everything.

 

[apparatus]

The Doors, Janis Joplin, Pink Floyd, Grateful Dead, Neil Young.

 

[Bernie Brewer]

AM talk radio. Specifically WTMJ Milwaukee.

 

[NikolausXX]

I listen to talk radio on KLIN lincoln, but on weekends its just rerun bill orielly, and shaun hannity, that I heard during the week.

 

[Edcculus]

Brewing Network!

 

[enderwig]

Either JZ podcasts or talk radio. Bonus points for Michael Savage!
Usually JZ podcasts, keeps the beer mojo flowin....

 

[SSRider]

John Butler trio.

 

[Righlander]

I usually just blare the TV some history channel or national geographic channel. brewed my last brew to Seinfeld. Lol sorry, but it's true.

 

[zac]

Talk Radio, Sirius Lithium, Jazz, 80's 90's Country or Outlaw Country, but mostly talk radio.

I turn on the DVR to modern marvels or something while I bottle

 

[GreenwoodRover]

Tonight:
A medley of Johnny Cash, American vol I-IV and Phish from Alpine Valley during their last (but not for long hopefully) tour in 2004.

 

[Arneba28]

Last brew was to country. I used to hate country but lately I have been super stressed so brewing to country just chills me out. Country chills me out so I listen to it on my way to work so I dont freak out right as I get there. And brewing, although stressing, its a good stress and relaxing. So both just chill me out and put me in a good mood for the rest of the day!

 

[Righlander]

Yeah that's awesome. Brewing relaxes me too. It's like a drug!

 

[noremorse1]

A lot of Bob Marley. I am a eclectic when it comes to music but, I find brewing to be ka kind of meditation for me and Bob goes nicely with it.
