This time on Creative Distillation, Brad and Jeff conduct field research at one of our more interesting — and favorite — locations to date. Pits & Stems is an actual speakeasy tucked away in a quiet Old North Boulder neighborhood.

The owner and sole proprietor, Ethan Decker, walks our hosts through the brief and colorful history of his garage-based passion project, regaling them with fascinating tales and some of the finest cocktails ever sipped on Creative Distillation — and that’s a lot of cocktails.

They’re also joined by Larry Plummer, Ph.D, Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship at Ivey Business School at Western University in London, Ontario. He earned his Ph.D. in strategy and entrepreneurship right here at CU- Boulder. 

It’s a lively and slightly-enlightening conversation and a real feel-good episode from start to finish.

Enjoy and cheers!

Pits & Stems has no website, but you can find it on Google Maps. Reservations are required.
