    Round 73 - Proclamation Ale Company (Don't Stop at the Guard Shack!)

    Round 73 is an interview with Ben Terry and Brendan Kennedy of Proclamation Ale Company, based in Warwick, Rhode Island. Proc is basically the old guard in the Providence area, and it's no wonder they are still going strong what with all the delicious beers, community-oriented events, and overall good work they do.

    Round 71 - Sierra Nevada Showing Us How Sustainability is Done Right

    Mandi McKay joins me via the interwebs to talk about sustainability, which makes sense because she is the Director of Environmental and Social Impact at Sierra Nevada Brewing's Chico, CA headquarters. Mandi has advice for breweries of any size, and even some recommendations for consumers to participate in the sustainability movement while still enjoying that beer.

    Round 70 - Two Alex's Walk Into a Brewery

    Alex Rabe and Alex Zilke are two of the three founders of Portico Brewing in Somerville, Massachusetts. They both join me for a conversation about beer, community, greenwashing, and architecture - or not architecture, depending on your perspective. Get it, perspective? It's an architectural joke, you probably wouldn't understand. But I don't either. Enjoy the show. Also, subscribe. Learn more about Portico at porticobrewing.com

    Round 69 - Liz and Jared Kiraly of Bone Up Brewing talk American farmhouse and Belgian waffles

    Liz and Jared Kiraly, partners in life and beer, join me on a gloomy New England day to talk about the inspiration behind their "American farmhouse"-style brewery. Not a lot of places focus on Belgian-inspired beers these days, but Bone Up is sticking with what got them into brewing in the first place. Also, waffles. Open up that special bottle of Belgian beer you've been holding onto and hit play already. Learn more about Bone Up Brewing at www.boneup.beer and follow them on Instagram to keep up on the latest brewery happenings. #craftbeer #boneupbrewing #everettma #massachusetts #bostonbeer #macraftbeer #massbeer #belgianbeer #ipa #brewing #witbier #lager
