Episode 116 – Red Brick Brewing

As Atlanta’s oldest (still operating) craft brewery, it would be easy for Red Brick to rest on its laurels.

However, the Westside brewery has undergone an overhaul of its image and its beers.

The taproom boasts dozens of new beers, and their release schedule has been extremely busy.

We join President/Brewmaster Garret Lockhart and Director of Brewing Operations Gavin McKenna at the brewery. We talk about the development of their new brews, the taproom, and memories of Myrtle Beach.
