This Week in Georgia Beer

On this week’s show…

Deschutes Brewery joins us this week as we talk with Brewmaster Brian Faivre and Assistant Brewmaster – Pilot House Kyle Matthias.  We discuss beer trends, staying ahead as a bigger brewery in a changing market, their new Modified Theory flavored malt beverage, the impact of legal weed on the beer industry, and we sip a few of their big beers.

Next Week: It’s time for our annual Oktoberfest show!  We’ll sample a few Festbiers and Marzens as we talk Oktoberfest with the crew from Tucker Brewing.  If you’re ready to get into the Oktoberfest groove check out our Spotify playlist.
