This Week in Georgia Beer

On this week’s show…

Stouts are for Summer with Orpheus Brewing’s Jason Pellett | 90° temps are no reason not to enjoy a big, boozy stout.  We invited Orpheus brewmaster Jason Pellett to join us this week to talk long boils, barrel-aging, and the difference in a plain-old adjunct stout and a pastry stout.

Next week: Boulevard Brewmaster Steven Pauwels | Boulevard has been a favorite for many years, long before the Georgia brewery boom they were a staple at parties and bottle shares.  We’re really looking forward to this interview.
