This Week on Beer Guys Radio

Georgia BeerWe’re talking to Blue Pants Brewery! Mike Spratley, owner and brewer for Blue Pants, joins us on the Ale Line to talk shop. Mike shares with us his philosophy on brewing, how he ended up starting a brewery, the crazy things he does with stouts, some plans for cans, and what we may see from them in the future.  We crack open their Oktoberfest and Weedy’s DIPA while we chat, and follow that up with their Peanut Butter Pinstripe and Candy Bar Pinstripe.

Next week we’re talking to Atlanta’s newest hotness, Scofflaw Brewing Co.  Scofflaw hit the Atlanta beer scene full force with tons of launch events all over the city.  They’re headed to Savannah soon but first they’re going to stop by for a chat.  We’re looking forward to talking shop with the Scofflaw team. (And drinking their beers.)
