When the Guild Team was in DC for Brewers Association Hill Climb, Rob and Andrew split an AirBnB. (No goods or services were exchanged for that plug!) In addition to our all day meetings, we pretty much lived together for several days.

What do brewery trade association professionals talk about after a night out on the town? Beer? Work? Beer Work? Kind of...

Not so much a deep dive but rather a dive into dives. Maybe even argued. At the heart of it (and it went unspoken) we are all looking for the reasons why dives or neighborhood places are becoming more popular again. Maybe there are lessons for our breweries back home.

Some AI trickeration was used to cancel out Marvin Gaye's, "What's Going On" playing in the background. Hopefully it's not noticeable.

We asked the fun duo, wetigersukesongs if we could use their version of Minas de Cobres and they graciously agreed. We hope you like it as much as the original. wetigersukesongs can be found here! https://www.youtube.com/user/wetigersukesongs

Sometimes this job takes you from festival to flight.

Rob and Andrew discuss Real Wild and Woody and then pack it in and pack it out to Washington DC for the Brewers Association Hill Climb. Our guild took 7 meetings with our Arizona delegation. We discuss this year's talking points and in-person meetings with Rep Stanton and Rep Lesko.

We also concluded the 160 days of the 75th 2nd Regular Session of the Arizona Legislature and discussed this year's gains across a stalemated legislative agenda. Woof!

Plus some easter eggs from Jeffery Lebowski and Mr T.

The team casted from the Mountain Top Taproom before the Real Wild and Woody Festival in Flagstaff to talk about how the festival has evolved and what the future holds.

Rob then brings up some news about the state legislature, including the liquor consensus bill that passed and the difficulties involved this year with the needless politicization of almost everything at the state capitol. They also discuss a bill that would regulate the sale of hemp in Arizona. John, the owner of Mountain Top Taproom, talks about his bar's open mic night. Jand hw it has been a great way for local musicians to get exposure and even get gigs at other bars and restaurants in Flagstaff.
