    The Bee Side - Silly Gooses with Evan Watson of Plan Bee Farm Brewery

    Greg and Kara Jo are hanging with Evan Watson - co-owner / farmer / brewer / beekeeper of Plan Bee Farm Brewery. Evan is one of the sweetest and most unique people we've ever met. His stories about getting into the music industry out of college (cough cough touring with Meatloaf) and eventually making some of the best beer in the country are fascinating (all while bringing us back to beekeeping!) We hope you feel like you're hanging out with us too. Enjoy!
