Through The Draft Line is an independent podcast produced in Boston, Massachusetts. The intention? To find and discuss the intersection of the creative and craft beer industries. To dig deep into the elements of New England artists' creative processes that there often isn’t enough time for at the merch table after their set. And what better way to have these discussions than over a beer? More specifically, each artist’s preferred brew, along with varying samples from craft breweries around the world.
