  • The Lost Syracuse Interviews

    The Lost Syracuse Interviews
    Apr 18 2024
    Last winter, Jim and Matt attended the NYSBA Festival in Syracuse at the Landmark Theater. They had a blast and had interviewed some amazing brewers and patrons at that festival. Unfortunately, there was an equipment failure. The guys thought they lost all of the interviews. Turns out they didn't! Matt was able to salvage interviews with Froth Brewing, WeBe Brewing, Big Alice Brewing, Rare Form Brewing and the Executive Director of the NTSBA Paul Leon. Toss in Matt sampling beers from Brindle Haus and Resurgence and we have a full episode. So here it is, a very special lost interview episode of Grill This!
