This Week in Georgia Beer | Aug. 12-18, 2016
This Week on Beer Guys Radio
We chat with the folks from Red Hare Brewing and a Regular Guy joins us in the studio. Roger Davis and Bobby Thomas from Marietta’s Red Hare Brewing Co. join us to talk about their newest releases, recent expansion, their upcoming 5th Anniversary, why “beer geeks” don’t seem to get excited by their offerings, and of course what’s in the works for the future. We’re also joined in the studio by legendary Atlanta radio personality Larry Wachs of The Regular Guys fame. Larry tries some craft beer for the first time and shares his opinions and chats with us about his latest project, the WACHS Modcast.
Next week we’re talking bottle shops. Kraig Torres from Hop City and Joshua Doherty with Harry’s Farmers Market join us to talk about getting beer into the hands of thirsty Georgians.
