A podcast by beer lovers, for beer lovers, with beer creators. Beer has long been the cause of a good story, a laughable faux pas, liquid encouragement, humorous memories, forgotten nights, and the centerpiece of camaraderie. Often overlooked is the story of the beer itself. Each hoppy pour has been on a long journey to become the brews you love. There’s been people and places, whos, whats, whys, and hows. We usually tell stories over a proverbial pint, but pour another round with hosts Jonathan and Derrick as they dive into the suds and take a look at the stories literally inside the pint.
