Episode Details

It’s Episode 55 and we cover a variety of topics, you could say a bit of everything. Our listeners have been very active and provided a ton of feedback, as well as articles and questions. Find out if a beer changes its ingredients is it still ok to call it by the same name. As well as a few “whale” breweries John and Denny would like to visit one day. We tackle the illusion of brewery diversity in an article from Craftbeer.com and Lagunitas Brewing sets up roots in Seattle. We encourage you to participate in our listener tasting notes segment in the next episode by picking up a bottle of the Deschutes Brewery Obsidian Stout and tasting along with us.
