Coffee Design: Motel Beer & Coffee In Berlin

Motel Beer & Coffee out of Berlin, Germany debuts a new line of canned nitro coffee products this week at the World of Coffee at the Messe Convention Center. The new cans are collabs with Square Mile Coffee Roasters and Coffee Collective and feature coffees from Kenya and Panama. The striking labels were designed by Motel’s own Marie Stadelmann. We spoke with Motel’s Head of Coffee Cory Andreen to find out more.

Hey Cory. Tell us a bit about Motel.

Motel Beer & Coffee is Cory Andreen (Head of Coffee),  Travis Wilson (Operation Manager), Peter Read (Head of Beer) and Marie Stadelmann (Creative Director). We all met at Markthalle Neun, a refurbished 19th century market hall in Berlin about four years ago.  At the time, Cory and Travis had a small production space for hot brewed RTD coffee in the basement. Peter was the brewer at Heidenpeters, the craft beer makers at Markthalle Neun and Marie was working at the bar. It was during this time, over a number of after work drinks, that we realized that brewing nitro coffee and beer requires a lot of the same equipment. And so, with a shared dedication to quality ingredients and delicious drinks, presented in a down-to-earth kind of way, we founded Motel Beer & Coffee.

Motel paired up with Coffee Collective and Square Mile for this collaboration—who else has Motel teamed up with in the past?

As a company that essentially started with a coffee beer collaboration, I would say that these kind of creative partnerships is in our DNA. We love working with producers who inspire us from various fields—be it dedicated coffee or hops farmers, biodynamic vintners, coffee roasters, or other beer brewers—to both learn as much as possible in the process and to create unique, tasty beverages. The learning part can’t be emphasized enough—both our coffee and our beer quality were improved through a mutual exchange of knowledge and working with producers from other fields keeps us supplied with a wealth of ideas to apply towards constantly improving this quality even further.

We’ve collaborated previously with The Coffee Collective, brewing and bottling their Kieni for sale at their shops in Copenhagen last year. Over the years we’ve also collaborated on coffees with Climpson & Sons, Koppi, Bonanza Coffee, Kaffe 9, and Ernst Kaffeeröster. This is our first year with the canning line so it’s the first time we can bring the collabs to a broader public. We’ve also made a coffee liqueur with Grey Goose and a bottled coffee cocktail with World Class.

As for beer, we recently collaborated with Berlin-based tortilleria Tlaxcalli and organic farming collective Höfe Gemeinschaft Pommern to brew “Acapulco”, a Mexican Lager. For the past two years, we’ve been making “Melsheimer”, a Riesling IPA using fresh grape must from biodynamic Mosel Riesling guru Thorsten Melsheimer. We’ve also worked with our friends from Big Stuff Smoked BBQ on a couple of smoky beers and have just launched the first of a series of four canned seasonal beer cocktails we’re producing with Christian Gentemann from Big Stuff Smoked BBQ.

Esmeralda Geisha Nitro—this is quite a beverage. What does it taste like?

The flavor is a fascinating blend of chocolate, oranges, rose water, with hints of rosemary and other herbs. The Coffee Collective has a way of wielding their Loring that results in extremely light roasts that are still soluble, creating a texture that is creamy and juicy. Like most tasty beverages with delicate aromas and flavors, we recommend letting get a bit closer to body temperature before enjoying.

How much does it cost?

The Esmeralda Geisha will retail for 10€ a can (including tax and 25c can deposit), or 45 € for the collaboration mix pack including three cans of Esmeralda Geisha and three or our Muchagara Kenya collaboration with Square Mile Coffee Roasters, which will also launch at World of Coffee.

Who designed the cans?

Marie Stadelmann, our Creative Director, designed the cans. The can design—with its pastel colors and minimalist look—takes its cues from the aesthetic of 1960s Italian espresso bar culture, where quality and fast-paced service go hand in hand. You might already know her for her work on the Sprudgie Award nominated packaging from Fjord.

Marie Stadelmann

How can I get my hands on these precious cans?

We will be presenting Esmeralda Geisha for the first time at our booth at World of Coffee, from June 6-8, and hosting a mixer-cum-launch-party together with TCC and Square Mile at our brewery in Reinickendorf on Friday, June 7th. Esmeralda Geisha will be available online from June 10 at www.motelminibar.com.

What’s next for Motel?

We’re extremely excited about our new producer partner in Kenya, Eddie Kiyaka. He’s young, brash, and this was his first year of production, cranking out a mere 72kg of organic, naturally processed Kenyan varietals at 2200masl. What a madman. The coffee is unlike anything you’ve ever tasted (hit him up on WhatsApp and he’ll tell you it’s “better than Geisha”) and can’t wait to share it.

As for the rest of the portfolio, we look forward to expanding our winemaker series this year and hopefully finally doing something together with our longtime friends from Companion Tea!

We can’t wait!

The World’s Top 10 Beer Destinations for 2019

Beer lovers with a penchant for travel already know about Belgium, both Portlands (Oregon and Maine), and Colorado. Many have Munich, and its famed Oktoberfest, on their bucket lists. But with 7,000 breweries and counting in the U.S., and more breweries in Europe and Asia increasingly inspired to supplement their own traditions with American craft brewing innovations, there are plenty of less obvious destinations calling for your next beercation.

In 2019, as in past years, VinePair challenged ourselves to look beyond the usual suspects and seek out beer cities beyond the proverbial beaten path. Adding to their appeal are a series of new nonstop flights, just-opened restaurants, and once-in-a-lifetime cultural attractions.

From the City of Light, to the City of Angels, to the Kodak City, here are our top 10 destinations for beer travel in 2019.

10. Paris, France

You’ve heard of its light, love, and haute couture. You may be less familiar, however, with Paris’s emerging beer scene. Beer lovers can sniff out locally brewed pints at world-class taprooms like La Fine Mousse, featuring French beers, affordable Cantillon and Drie Fonteinen, and a restaurant and bottle shop across the street. Brewberry provides session IPAs, frites in Chimay cheese, and a respite from Sacre Coeur crowds. Hoppy Corner, near a series of restaurants, bars, and patisseries in the 2nd arrondissement, offers a mix of French, Belgian, and American craft beers. It’s also metal-head-friendly.

Be on the lookout for local beers like Gallia Paris’s East Coast IPA, a fresh, French take on the NEIPA; or Brasserie BAPBAP’s Acid Eiffel, a gose-style sour ale inspired by the architectural landmark.

Additional cultural draws in 2019 include the debut of the Pinault Collection at the Pantheon-inspired Bourse de Commerce, designed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando; and the spring 2019 debut of Italian boutique hotel J.K. Place on the Left Bank.

9. Seattle, Wash.

More than 360 bars and restaurants opened in Seattle in 2018. Among the city’s anticipated was Future Primitive Brewing, a small brewery specializing in sessionable “little beers,” as the brewery calls them, which officially opened to the public in Seattle’s White Center neighborhood on Dec. 21.

Seattle’s 60 breweries and counting also include cult favorites like Reuben’s Brews, Holy Mountain, and Cloudburst, along with long-established classics like Pike.

8. Tokyo, Japan

Beer may not be the main reason most head to Tokyo, but those who don’t take the time to acknowledge the craft beer scene here are missing out. Well-known, multi-location brewpubs like Kiuchi Brewery, which began brewing beer in 1996, and expat-led Baird Beer, launched in 2000, are now joined by a flush of more recently opened beer destinations. In Shibuya, Watering Hole, opened in 2012, serves a mix of Japanese craft beers (Onidensetsu, Minoh) and American favorites like Upslope and Burley Oak. Øl, a Scandinavian-Japanese craft beer bar established in partnership with Norway’s Oslo Brewing in 2016, serves everything from Oslo’s own beers to Kyoto Brewing saison to the odd Ballast Point lager, and even house-made ginger ale.

Goodbeer Faucets, centrally located in the heart of Shibuya since 2011, offers 40 craft beers on tap in a modern, spacious interior. Internationally inspired snacks such as Wagyu steak and fries, pulled pork served with a sliced baguette, and a current seasonal speciality, “Jerusalem Mix,” Israeli spiced chicken parts with seasoning, are mouthwatering; and general manager Eldaad “Dede” Bribrom, an Israeli transplant, has an enthusiastic demeanor that’s solidified the bar as both Tokyo craft-beer staple and tourist-friendly respite.

Mikkeller Tokyo, which moved to its current location in 2017 (it originally opened in 2015 in what is now Øl), draws in Japanese and foreign beer geeks alike.

7. Rochester, N.Y.

In December 2018, Brooklyn’s Other Half Brewing had its first can release at Other Half Roc, its new location in Rochester, a city more than 300 miles from NYC by car. The locally lauded release followed several mobile can releases throughout the state.

Its decision to settle down in Rock City was a no brainer: Since 2013, Rochester’s Monroe County has jumped from three to more than 25 breweries. Clearly, this city is thirsty for craft beer.

Fifth Frame Brewing is a brewery, coffee roaster, and restaurant with board games. Three Heads Brewing comprises a brewery, beer garden, and music venue; and Swiftwater is a farmhouse brewery making traditional styles with local ingredients.

While in the Roc, make a stop at Genesee to try New York’s famous Cream Ale, along with other Genesee brews sold exclusively at the brewery.

6. Raleigh, N.C.

Raleigh is having a moment. The population of Wake County, which includes Raleigh, is increasing by an average of 63 people per day, and, as it turns out, many of them have a taste for craft beer.

Taste the revolution at Brewery Bhavana, a combination brewery, taproom, dim sum restaurant, library, and flower shop; and at Trophy Brewing, which has three distinct locations in downtown Raleigh (one for beer, one for beer and pizza, and one for beer and fancier fare). The barrel-aged sours at Bond Brothers, in Cary, earned it USA Today’s Best New Brewery distinction in 2017. Ancillary Fermentation, a conceptual pop-up taproom, will make its next appearance in January. Also in 2019, Gizmo Brew Works will open a second taproom in Chapel Hill, taking over the iconic Rathskeller space, a bar and restaurant in operation from 1948 to 2007.

And in the suburban town of Wake Forest, White Street Brewing produces award-winning traditional German- and Belgian-style ales, including its Kolsch, one of VinePair’s best beers of 2018.

5. Los Angeles, Calif.

Once awkwardly subpar in comparison to other West Coast beer scenes, L.A. is finally beer-friendly — whether you’re in Culver City or Long Beach (the latter gained a new place to eat or drink every week in 2018).

Monkish Brewing in Torrance commands a cult following for its hazy IPAs and oak-aged saisons. Long Beach’s Beachwood Blendery is a VinePair favorite for its gueuze- and lambic-inspired sour ales, and Three Weavers brings community and accessible craft beers, like its crisp Seafarer Kolsch and easy-drinking Stateside Session IPA, to Inglewood.

More cities will get direct flights to the City of Angels in 2019, too. United kicks off new non-stop service between Los Angeles and Eugene, Ore., Madison, Wisc., and Pasco, Wash., this spring, so start planning.

4. Atlanta, Ga.

Georgia’s capital is home to some of our favorite breweries. Monday Night Brewing, our top pick for the Southeast in 2018, has locations near Atlantic Station and Pittsburgh; Reclamation Brewing is favored for its roasty dark brews (we’re partial to its oatmeal stout); and Creature Comforts of Athens brews something for everyone, from pillowy pilsners, to tropical IPAs, to oak-aged limited releases, many of which are not available outside the state or region. The buzzy Variant Brewing is inspiring long lines for its double IPAs, adjunct stouts, and tart farmhouse ales.

Atlanta welcomed several new restaurants this year, too, such as a new location of the Local Pizzaiolo, serving up expertly crafted pizzas alongside a small selection of craft beers like Creature Comforts’ Tropicalia.

Meanwhile, Atlanta is gearing up for Super Bowl LIII kicking off Feb. 3, with 100 bars, restaurants, and venues secured for Super Bowl-related events.

3. New Orleans, La.

A beer lover’s trip to the Crescent City five years ago would have likely included an hour-long trek from the French Quarter to NOLA Brewing, located in the Irish Channel, or as its tagline proudly states, “in a warehouse on the lake side of a street tourists can’t pronounce” (Tchoupitoulas Street). Or, one might have endured an hour-long drive to Abita across Lake Pontchartrain. Now, recent openings citywide are making a Big Easy beercation easier than ever.

“Non-distro” breweries, or those that don’t distribute their beer outside their own taprooms, are keys here. Wash down your beignets and pralines at Brieux Carré, a Marigny brewery offering everything from grisettes to restrained NEIPAs. Head to a trivia night at Parleaux Beer Lab, a small batch brewery in Bywater with styles spanning the sessional to the experimental. Miel Brewery, also in the Irish Channel, is fast becoming a feel-good neighborhood staple, open seven days a week.

Budget travelers, rejoice: Spirit Airlines announced new routes to New Orleans late last year, adding nonstop flights between New Orleans and Austin; and nonstop seasonal service between New Orleans and Philadelphia.

2. Berlin, Germany

Germany’s capital is celebrating two anniversaries this year: 30 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, and 100 Years of Bauhaus, the architectural movement celebrated in a series of events throughout the year, starting with a festival in January.

Whenever you go, stop at Markthalle Neun, an urban food market touting the hipster trifecta of coffee, farm-fresh, responsibly raised food, and a craft brewery, Heidenpeters, in its northwest corner. In hip Kreuzberg’s Wrangelkiez neighborhood, Hopfenreich offers local beers from Spent Collective, Berliner Berg, Bierfabrik, and Stone Berlin. And Brlo Brwhouse, a brewery and taproom located in a shipping container complex in the new, cool Gleisdreieck Park between Kreuzberg and Schöneberg, offers tours along with 20 taps spanning house-brewed Helles and German IPAs, plus local, national, and international selections.

If you’re heading to Berlin in the summer, kick off your visit during Berlin Beer Week, a 10-day, multi-venue beer experience July 19 to 28. The Berlin Beer Cruise on July 19 is a perfect prospect — tickets start at €69 (about $79) and are going fast! — and, if you need an extra boost, check out American Airlines’ new seasonal service from Philadelphia to Berlin-Tegel Airport.

1. Austin, Tex.

There are now more craft breweries in Austin than any other city in Texas. The city is home to some of the country’s best lager brewers, like Live Oak, whose Grodziskie was a VinePair panel favorite for 2018; Austin Beer Garden Brewing Co., which took home two gold medals at the 2018 Great American Beer Festival (GABF); and Austin Beerworks, which won a GABF bronze for its light lager last year.

Austin’s beer-and-food-pairing game is equally impressive, spanning esoteric newcomers like The Brewer’s Table, an upscale brewpub aspiring to an all-Cicerone staff, to Batch Craft Beer and Kolaches, which pairs south Texas’s beloved “Czexan” pastries with local brews.

In January, Austin will host the biannual Pink Boots Society Conference, bringing thousands of women industry members to the city.

Verbotene Dinge haben irgendwie immer einen Reiz. Also gibt es heute mal ein #Bierchen in der #Wahlkabine 🍺 Mit dabei das @heidenpeters #thirstylady #craftbeer, ich dachte es passt einfach zur #Geltungssucht der #Bundeskanzlerin. #dasbier ist fruchtig, hopfig, aber hat auch eine gewisse Hopfenbitterkeit. Es könnte ein #indiapaleale oder #paleale sein. Es schäumt wahnsinnig auf und mir kommt es vor, als wenn die Früchte (Orange und Zitrone) immer mehr dominieren. Es ist angenehm süffig und bleibt mir nur noch zu sagen: #gehtwählen und vielleicht gönnt Ihr Euch danach auch ein tolles Bier 🙃 #duhastdiewahl #machdeinkreuz #craftbeerporn #craftbeernotcrapbeer #craftbeerlife #craftbeerlover #beergasm #beertastic #beernerd #beergeek #beerporn #beersnob (hier: Gemeindeverwaltungen Bürgerbüro Meßdorf)

Siebenhundertsechsundachtzigstes Bier:

Heidenpeters NEIPA 7,0% vol. Berlin, Deutschland

Das New England IPA aus Berlin fließt sortengerecht in absolut trübem Goldgelb ins Glas, mit intensiven Aromen von Mandarine, Zitrone und Mango. Geschmacklichtoll vielschichtig mit einem zunächst sehr fruchtigen Antrunk, abgelöst von einem wuchtigen Malzkörper, der das Gegengewicht zur dann einsetzenden Hopfenbittere bildet. Das Alles ist unglaublich intensiv, trotzdem weich und dadurch gut trinkbar. 9/10

In our last episode, your hero was speaking English en route from Poznań to Berlin, not actively realizing that he would speak no more foreign sentences in these travels.

Berlin

After being dropped off by my linguistically superior chauffeur, I confidently strode into the night, without betraying the uncertainty of my mental map, towards my best guess of where my accommodations for the night would be. I eventually found them, as well as my hosts - my mother’s (Polish) cousin Zofia and her (German) husband Christoph. It was a late night reunion, their thorough, European hospitality jogging memories of the six weeks I had stayed with them in Washington DC, six years prior. They, as excellent hosts, allowed me to settle in at my own speed and save further reminiscing for the coming days.

Day 1 began with the standard free walking tour, provided this time by the most standard free walking tour company, Sandeman’s. After meeting near the Brandenburg Gate (sparking recollections of my 24-hour visit in 2011), we proceeded through classics like the Berlin Wall, Checkpoint Charlie, and the site of Hitler's Bunker, as well as an extended stop for a thoughtful meander through the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. At the tour’s endpoint, Bebenplatz, I was reminded of how small the world is (my boss’s daughter was leading the next tour). Apparently unsatisfied with the amount of walking, I continued, fueling myself with a currywurst stop (one of the most puzzling signature foods in the world) on my journey to very hip east end of Kreuzberg (or, more fashionably, X-berg). There, I stopped for beers at a craft brewery hidden in a food market (Heidenpeters), then crossed the Spree on the famous Oberbaum Bridge to see the East Side Gallery - a large section of the Berlin Wall covered in paintings made in 1990, acting now as a memorial to freedom and appropriately experiencing regular graffiti. Ready to dive into Berlin’s public transit system in order to make it back for dinner with the von Marschalls, I took the S-Bahn from the intimidating Ostbahnhof (east station) back for dinner and more catch-up with my former-and-present hosts. My punctuality was rewarded with a fantastic meal.

A fantastic meal is best when followed by a fantastic meal. After the next day’s midday brunch (feat. cheesecake!), I kept walking, this time towards Breitscheidplatz and Kaiser Wilhelm Church. It was here that the Christmas market terrorist attack happened only 2 months later (luckily my hosts weren’t there). I enjoyed a music rehearsal in the newer half of the church, then continued past the zoo and through the Tiergarten, the Central Park of Berlin. I revisited the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe to take in their museum - located under the memorial itself, an appropriate companion to the minimalism above - providing a thoroughly educational and understandably depressing experience. From Potsdamer Platz, I took the train (this time the U-Bahn) back to home base.

Berlin had clearly captured my attention as a walking city - my third day mimicked my first two in that my primary activity became putting one foot in front of the other. I followed the Landwehr canal through some very residential areas to yet another marker of the war - the Topography of Terror - which we had stopped near for a bathroom break on the walking tour. The indoor/outdoor museum focused on the Gestapo and the SS and is built on the sites of the headquarters for the same groups. The special exhibit - on mass shootings - offered no reprieve from the darkness. I’m very glad I enveloped myself in WWII history while in Berlin, as a month later, the results of the presidential election in the US brought plenty of reasons to remember the lessons of history, particularly those of Nazi Germany. I put these emotions out of my mind with more walking, beer, and a döner kebab that was worth the wait/weight. After a rainy walk home, I enjoyed another fantastic dinner with my hosts as well as their nephew Stephan, who I had cohabitated with for a brief time in Washington DC. Two Germans, a Pole, and an American (two young, two middle aged) have beers after dinner... Political discussion ensues - no joke. After making our second entries in the guestbook, Stephan and I parted ways.

In the morning, I parted ways with the other two von Marschalls and hopped on a relatively short bus to Hamburg.

Hamburg

I arrived in Hamburg midday and trekked to my immaculately contemporary hostel (Pyjama Park) in the Schanzenviertel. The rapid pace of my travel and number of foot-miles since Poland made me feel way too raggedy for the environs. I did the requisite walking tour to orient myself, taking in the fantastic architecture (including the brick expressionist Chilehaus) and geography. I grabbed a coffee to recharge, then continued solo through St. Pauli back towards my hostel, where I settled in, then wandered the neighborhood. I had Vietnamese for dinner, prematurely nostalgic with the end of my travels fast approaching.

I had spent an extra night in Berlin, meaning that day 2 also meant departure. Unburdened by baggage, I bopped around the neighborhood, had an excellent coffee and conversation with the barista, had a light, very-German lunch at a nearby immigrant center and cafe (Why Not? being the name and the motivation), and documented the excellent street art in the light of day. I then hauled my things on a long walk to the Kunsthalle, Hamburg’s primary art museum. I made sure to save time to treat myself to the special exhibit, featuring surrealism from the likes of favorites like Dalí and Magritte. After my dose of culture, I huffed it to the nearby bus station, where a delay allowed me plenty of time to grab food and beer for the long ride to Copenhagen.
