    Episode 455 - Will Cleveland - Welcome to Rochester




































    Welcome to Rochester, Thieves! We kick off nine weeks of shows from the Flour City with Will Cleveland. He's our sherpa on a guide to cream ales and garbage plates. This episode was recorded at the Genesee Brewhouse (thanks for their hospitality) and lays the base for all that is to come.
    Will Cleveland, a Rochester native and former investigative reporter for the Democrat & Chronicle newspaper, has been covering the western New York beer scene since 2014. He first began writing about beer for the D&C and then started his own independent newsletter, The Cleveland Prost, in early 2022. He now works for the city of Rochester's civilian-led police oversight agency and resides in the city with his wife, Cassie, son, Audie, and a bunch of cats. Tune in and let us know what you think!
