Live at Little Beer Fest | Ep. 277
Beers don’t have to be big to be beautiful
Last weekend we headed over to Duluth, GA to party with our friends from Good Word Brewing as they celebrated the beauty of small beers.
The festival had brewers from all over the country offering up beers under 5% ABV. There were plenty of lagers as well as some saisons and grisettes, sours, and even some porters and stouts. In the day of TIPAs and double-digit pastry stouts it’s nice to celebrate the drinkin’ beers. We’ve been preaching Pilsners for year; we knew others would eventually come around.
Fighting our best against the DJ that I swear aimed a speaker right at us, we sat down to chat with a few of the brewers at the event. We talk with Ryan and Todd from Good Word about how the fest came to be and why they wanted a festival of all low ABV beers. Joran and Shawn from Halfway Crooks Beer chat about their love for lagers and the cult following their LAGER LAGER LAGER LAGER merchandise has.
We ran into Crooked Run’s Jake Endress who joined us early this year and talked with him about small beer and small wine and Andrew from Thin Man sits down to talk macro lagers and the interesting bowel movements of the wombat. Enjoy
