This Week in Georgia Beer | April 22-28, 2016
This Week on Beer Guys Radio
We’re talking cigars and beer. Sean Williams of Atlanta’s El Primer Mundo cigars and Brian Hewitt of Stogie Review join us on location at Buckhead Cigar to smoke cigars and drink some beer, and talk about both. We chat about what inspired Sean to start his own cigar line 10 years ago as well as his tastes in beer, and pairing that with his cigars. Brian talks about coming from Oregon where drinking “microbrew” was the norm before the rest of the country caught on, and shares how he got into cigars and joined Stogie Review. Brian and Sean offer up some suggestions for new cigar smokers and we talk about pairing cigars and craft beer.
Listen to Beer Guys Radio live at 1:00 PM Saturday on AM 920, or for you early-risers catch us Sunday at 6:00 AM on Biz 1190. If you’re outside the Atlanta area you can stream the show via our website, iHeartRadio, or TuneIn. Can’t catch the live show? That’s cool, we’ve got you covered. All past shows are available on-demand on our site, Soundcloud, or your favorite podcasting app.
