Episode 114: Orpheus Brewing

Jason Pellett’s beers are out of the ordinary.

After all, it was certainly a bold move for Atlanta’s Orpheus Brewing to make a tart plum saison (Atalanta) one of its flagship beers. 

But persistence pays off. Now, the Midtown brewery is filled to capacity, has one of the first coolship projects in the region, and is making some of the most unique beers in the south. 

We talk to Jason about the brewery, its future, and the importance of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.
