This Week in Georgia Beer

This Week on Beer Guys Radio

This week… Macon Beer Company.  New owner Yash Patel joins us this week.  We’ll chat about his goals for the brewery, an interesting partnership, and why in the world he was homebrewing at 13.

Next Week… Upcoming breweries featuring Banyan Roots, Split Batch, and Line Creek Brewing.  We’re taking the show on the road and recording live at the Atlanta Cask Ale Tasting at 5 Seasons Westside.  Keeping the tradition alive, we’ll chat with a few of the breweries coming to Georgia this year.
