Our friends over a Short Fuse Brewing are one of a few breweries in Illinois to use foeders to help with their sour program and are making a name for themselves within the state as having some phenomenal beer. We had the chance to try some and we agree. So enjoy this episode and impress your friends with the random trivia facts we gave you above.

We love going up to New Hampshire, the lakes, the mountains, and the people we meet along the way in our beer travels. We went just over the border to Newington NH to meet with our friends Stoneface Brewing. Dan and Pete sat down with us and discussed how Stoneface came to be in a time when there weren't a lot of breweries opening up in NH and how they expanded to become on of the largest producers of beer in the state. We loved talking with Dan and Pete and learning about their brewery we over here at Brew Roots think our listeners will like it too!

Cheers

In the heart of Haverhill, Massachusetts, right on the banks of the mighty Merrimack River resides a brew pub, called the Tap Brewing Co. 

“The Tap”, has been around since the late 19th Century originally as a restaurant and bar, but is now a beloved brew pub. The Tap has had a pretty impressive lineage of brewers pass through their door like Jon Curtis and Tod Mott. Keeping the tradition of excellence and consistency in the beer is important to current head brewer, Jason Barnum. We talked to Jason this week who started as a patron at the Brewery and ultimately worked his way up to being the Head Brewer. Conveniently for us, Jason’s unique position in being a frequenter of the Tap, before working there and being a history buff left us with a great episode that we’re excited to share.

To find out The Tap’s hours of operation and their current tap list is check out their website http://www.tapbrewingcompany.com

A couple weeks ago our friend Neil from Gilded Skull reached out to us and said he I got an awesome idea for an episode. He told us "I'm doing a collaboration beer with the band Summoner, Widowmaker and this Podcast Up in Canada called Vox and Hops who is going to organize a beer and metal festival and release a beer, you want to cover it?". So we did more research and found out about "Brewtal North America" which paired 22 Vox&Hops Alumni with metal breweries to create unique collaborative craft beers for their bands.

We told Neil tell us the time and place and we'll be there.Here is the story of the most metal beer in the history of metal and beer "Riff Cannon".

Make sure to follow all of these breweries, the Vox and Hops Podcast, and Summoner!

If you’ve been to Roslindale, MA you know that despite being right outside of Boston it still has that local neighborhood feel. A great mix of small business and delicious restaurants! It seemed the only thing missing was a brewery. In 2019, Mike and Lora of Distraction Brewing Company opened their doors, just a couple months before the pandemic shut everything down. This week we’re telling their story of good beers for pivoting to survive a pandemic.

Thanks to @ratmagnet for being the catalyst for change. 

While we cannot fix what has happened in the past. We can and will be part of the solution to make sure stories like we’ve all seen don’t happen again.
