    Welcome to Buzzed with Brian! 

    On this episode, Brian welcomed back a couple of familiar voices. Brian had the pleasure of sitting down with Garth Beyer (again), Certified Cicerone and business owner of Garth’s Brew Bar. This was recorded during the 2nd Annual Monroe Street Craft Beer Week in Madison, WI. Garth created this collaborative week, bringing all the great businesses on Monroe Street together to celebrate beer. Garth and Brian talk shop about the Madison beer scene and get to enjoy conversation with Peter Schroder of Starkweather Brewing Co. and Ty Golackson from Working Draft Beer Co. One last thing, Garth put the podcast to the test with a draft “Mystery Beer Challenge”, and oh was it fun! Sit back, relax, and raise a pint to Garth, Peter, and Ty for coming onto the show!

    Welcome to Buzzed with Brian! 

    Brian brings you the third episode recorded out of MobCraft Denver during GABF week!  That’s not a typo in the title either, it is indeed a peculiar way to spell Peculier Ales.

The two of them tell Brian their story with beer, and what Peculier has brewing in their two taprooms in Windsor and Fort Collins, CO.
