This Week in Georgia Beer | Oct. 14-20, 2016
This Week on Beer Guys Radio
We’re talking with Terrapin Beer Co.! Brewery co-founder Brian “Spike” Buckowski joins us in the studio and we talk about their recent acquisition by Tenth & Blake (Miller Coors), Spike’s craft beer background, the story of Capt. Krunkles, and what’s in the works for Terrapin – he even gave us the scoop on some barrel aged beers that are coming soon. Spike brought in some goodies to share with us so we opened up So Fresh and So Green, Green; this year’s MooHoo, and Luau Krunkles.
Next week we’re talking Atlanta Beer History! Ron Smith and Mary O. Boyle, authors of Atlanta Beer: A Heady History of Brewing in the Hub of the South and Prohibition in Atlanta join us to talk about the history of Atlanta beer, prohibition in Georgia, what’s changed in the last 100 or so years, and what hasn’t.
