    We love our amazing sponsors ⁠Bintani⁠, ⁠Konvoy Kegs⁠, ⁠Craft Punks Canning⁠, ⁠Rallings Labels⁠ and ⁠CRAFTD. Glass⁠ once again, our thanks. As industry people supporting the little guys like us, it’s invaluable what they do for the industry, but also in support of us.

    A special thanks also to both ⁠Amber Hour App⁠ for giving us use of their app, and ⁠Beers Illustrated⁠ for providing us with our awesome logos and continual support when we accidently delete them!

    And it goes without saying, thanks to ⁠Hiker Brewing Concern⁠ for giving us excellent beer many times a week, and letting run amok in their brewery more times per week than anywhere else. And also to Madocke who hosted us this evening.

    And special thanks to you, our fans who may have watched or listened to this episode. Essentially, you’re the reason we’re doing this and it makes a world of difference. We could do it without you, but it wouldn’t be as fun and probably not as worthwhile.
