Black is Beautiful Vol. 2 is coming

Marcus Baskerville of Weathered Souls Brewing didn’t intend to start a movement when he created his Black is Beautiful beer.  Intentional or not, the movement happened, with 1,200+ breweries across all 50 states and 22 countries brewery their take on the Imperial Stout.  Vol. 2 is underway, this one will be a NEIPA.

National Black Brewers Association

Less than 1% of the nearly 10,000 craft breweries in the US are black-owned, the National Black Brewers Association (NB2A) aims to change that.  Through raising awareness the organization aims to the number of African Americans in brewing while raising awareness of the African American brewing history, opening more opportunity and resources for black brewers, and much more.  Listen as Marcus shares about the organization and their goals.

Seasonal Creep and Pumpkin Hate

It’s going to happen.  I can’t stop it.  But we don’t have to like.  Hear our takes on seasonal creep of all things and our exception for a bit of Christmas in July.  You will never see a pumpkin beer from Weathered Souls.  We can appreciate that.  Marcus shares about his early, explosive experience with pumpkin that solidified his stance.
