This week we welcomed the team from legendary Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, in house to chat all things Sierra Nevada. Nestled in Chico, California, the passion project of industry legend Ken Grossman quickly became and has continued to persist as the standard bearer in the industry for quality and consistency. Having Nick & Jordan in house to discuss this industry powerhouse was so much fun and to hear the detailed stories of both Ken Grossman as an owner and the brand itself. This was a fantastic episode and the level of attention to detail from an industry giant was wildly impressive. If you want to immerse yourself in Craft Beer, this is the episode to start with... for sure!

Hope you enjoy the stories as much as we did here in the taproom.

Thanks for giving this episode a listen and we hope to see you in the taproom for the live taping of the next episode. Cheers!

This week we welcomed beloved Local Brewery Owner & Advanced Cicerone Collin Zreet for a unique Belgian Beer Tasting and food pairing. This was the first ticketed tasting of it's kind and helluva time with fabled brews Cantillon Gueuze, Tilquin Quetsche, Trappist Westmalle Tripel, Brasserie de Blaugies La Vermontoise with assorted cheese, nut, & fruit pairings provided by Priory Hospitality. It was a sellout event and a fantastic night here in the taproom. This was a one-off event that we weren't even going to record but decided to set up the gear at the last minute so please excuse the shit show! Hope you guys enjoy the episode as much as we did here in the taproom.

This week we welcomed the Owner Brad Farbstein of Real Ale Brewing Company, from Blanco, Texas. This one was rescheduled from the last spring and it was an absolute blast hanging out with the Texas OG from the Hill Country! It was a treat for the entire taproom to get the story from the man himself as Brad walked us through the early days of basement brewing in downtown Blanco to the growth that necessitated the beautiful brewery they enjoy now. Thanks, Brad, for all you've done for the Texas brewing industry and the great brews over the years. Hope you enjoy the stories as much as we did here in the taproom.

Thanks for giving this episode a listen and we hope to see you in the taproom for the live taping of the next episode. Cheers!
