This Week in Georgia Beer | Dec. 15-21, 2017
This Week on Beer Guys Radio
WE’RE TALKING WITH STATS BREWPUB. We sat down with STATS Brewmaster Austin Edwards to talk about his new beers and the revamped dining choices, then we sat down and poured a beer right at our table. Madness.
NEXT WEEK IT’S BEST OF BEER GUYS RADIO 2017. We’re taking the week off to enjoy the holidays with our family and friends. Not to worry, we’ll have some our very best interviews up for the show.
LISTEN TO BEER GUYS RADIO every Saturday in Atlanta at 1:00 PM Eastern on AM 920 or Sunday at 6:00 AM on Biz 1190. Outside of Atlanta? Check our website for a full list of affiliates. We’re also streaming live on our website, iHeartRadio, Spotify, or TuneIn. Can’t catch the live show? That’s cool, we’ve got you covered.
