	Celebs and chefs make Maytag Blue a cheese to envy
		Fritz Maytag said Maytag Blue's reputation got a big boost about 20 years ago when the cheese was described as the finest blue in the world by the late renowned chef James Beard.
		Maytag Blue's popularity was helped, too, by a food renaissance in which Americans found an appetite for specialty breads and imported foods.
		Early in the 20th century, E.H. Maytag, son of the appliance company founder, established a dairy farm and prize-winning herd of Holstein cattle to provide a source of safe milk for Maytag family members and company employees.

	Small Giants by Bo Burlingham
		Maytag may be the great-grandson of the giant appliance company’s founder, but he has an unabashed fondness for small, beautiful things, in business as elsewhere.
		In the early 1990s, it had reached a crossroads, and Maytag had been forced to make a choice— the same choice that all successful entrepreneurs are faced with sooner or later, although most don’t realize that there even is a choice until it’s too late.
		Maytag never forgot the experience, and, after Anchor Brewing fi- nally moved into its new building in 1979, he had vowed not to let it happen again.

	Head of Steam
		Fritz: More formally, he is Frederick Louis Maytag III, and it is under that name that he came from Iowa to Stanford in 1955, graduated four years later, stayed for three years of grad school and then, abruptly, quit to buy a suffering little brewery in the City.
		She says Maytag is on his way, and would I care to wait in the bar.
		Maytag found an even older recipe for beer, and this led to Anchor's 1991 experiment with "Sumerian beer." Unveiled at the American Beer Festival, here were a bunch of folks working from a formula found in tablets dating to 3000 B.C., sucking on tubes as, apparently, the ancients used to do.

	Of grape and grain / San Francisco brewing master is also firmly anchored in the vineyard and distillery
		Maytag's inquisitiveness, hands-on business approach and uncanny ability to be at the right place at the right time have made him a Zeliglike character in the wine and spirits world, a driving force in the industry.
		Maytag was also one of the first Northern California winegrowers to press his own olive oil from trees planted on the property, starting in 1991.
		Maytag had received what he describes as "a modest inheritance" and was able to keep the brewery afloat, but it took 10 years to make it profitable.

		Maytag blue cheese, a piquant blue-veined cheese aged in subterranean vaults or "caves" beneath this central Iowa city, has developed a cult following among gourmets.

		The name is familiar to Americans because of the Maytag man, the guy who sits around waiting for someone's washing machine or dishwasher to go on the fritz, which the company claims rarely happens.
		The Maytag Company is based in Newton, Iowa, and while founder Elmer Maytag's sons still sell appliances, they also found that making cheese was a much more viable option than the Holstein-based milk business Elmer ran as a hobby.
		Maytag blue has a creamy, tangy, sharp, stabbing flavor that transforms everything it touches--although I generally like to eat the stuff plain and at room temperature with a few slices of crusty bread.

		Maytag is considered one of the founding fathers of the microbrewery movement, a chapter that would begin in the 1970s.
		Because of the business acumen of Maytag, together with the decision to release "unusual" (for the times) beers such as a barleywine, a wheat beer, and a holiday brew, the company is a success story and is held in high regard throughout the industry.
		When Maytag spoke of making his whiskey in a "traditional way," he was referring to the 18th century method in which the staves of the barrel were "toasted." Toasting implies heating the staves over a fire of oak chips to help the cooper bend them.

		Although some malted grain (10 to 15 percent of the total mash) is always used to aid the conversion of starch into sugar, the notion that 18th century distillers were mashing all of their grain before distilling seems far fetched and is unsupported by historical evidence.
		Maytag theorizes that because malting techniques were not very good, the distiller would have had to use 100 percent malt to achieve a full conversion, but the alternative way of converting starch is to cook the mash, which is part of every American whiskey recipe we know about.
		Still, Fritz Maytag is the most daring and interesting innovator on the distilling scene today, and thank God for him.

		For example, Fritz Maytag, founder of Anchor Brewing in San Francisco, was on the verge of taking his company public because he felt he needed the financing that an IPO would provide to expand and avoid a capacity crisis.
