Season 4 Episode 3 - Brewery Tours

The CPP crew sat down with Glenn Smith from Brewery Tours for a second time. Glenn was one of our first guests in Season 1. We had a great time talking with Glenn on how Brewery Tours has expanded and what the future plans are. There are several ways to get to know more about the craft beer in York, Hanover or Lancaster, PA. Glenn and his staff can give you a walking tour, bus tour and they even do several trips on the train (Sips & Shenanigans).

If you're looking to know more about the craft beer scene or even some history about the area, give Glenn and his staff a visit!

We sampled a kettle sour and two homebrews that the CPP crew brewed.

Season 3 Episode 16

Bret and Dave had the pleasure to host Brad Wilson and Matt Moore, two of the co-owners, from Sign of the Horse Brewery in Hanover, PA and Red Lion, Pa. We get to find out why they started a brewery and how the name came about. It seems as though there was a tavern in the 1700's in Hanover that was called Sign of the Horse. Even Thomas Jefferson visited to have a pint. They have actually three locations, their first on York Street, a traditional beirhaus on the square in Hanover and their newest location in Red Lion, PA. It is a very interesting story that you need to see for yourself. from Brad's corporate background to Matt's homebrewing days, they have created a must visit place and grab a pint or two for yourself.

They brought along a Pale Ale, IPA and a Marzen for us to try. We can't wait to visit them and try some more and we recommend you do the same!

Bret and Dave had Ryan Moncarz (aka Monkey) in studio and he is the brewmaster at Snitz Creek Brewery in Lebanon, PA, Ft. Indiantown Gap and soon to be open in Palymyra, PA. We had so much fun with Ryan finding out where the logo came from, sometimes they hear people calling them Schitt's Creek after the TV show and his love for family and music. You have to stop in and see them in any of the their locations and maybe make a trip up the Snitz Creek!

Ryan brought along a brand new hazy IPA, a New England IPA, Blueberry Ale and a Golden Lager for us to sample.

Season 3 Episode 14

Bret, Kevin & Dave had a great time with Emily Wilson from Englewood Brewing in Hershey, PA. She tells us her story on how she got to Englewood and her love of the craft beer industry, it all started with Magic Hat #9! (LOL)

If you're a history buff, ask them about the history of the building that dates back to when Milton Hershey started the Hershey Chocolate Factory. Emily's daughter, Lucy, even joined us for a bit and stole the show. From great beer, great location, great food, Englewood Brewing is a must visit. We sampled their version of a West Coast IPA, Mexican Lager, Red Ale and a Milk Stout.

Bret had the privilege of attending this great event hosted by Crocodiledog Marketing. Yes the weather was not very cooperative and it was cold, but everyone made the best of it and for the most part, plenty of people came out and enjoyed the event. Bret was able to get a few guests on the show to find out more about them and why they attend festivals like this.

Our first guest was Matt, from Crocodiledog Marketing, and we got more than one word out of him this time (LOL). Matt and his crew host numerous events like this and are hoping to keep promoting different venues for York County. Look for more on their website (https://www.crocodiledogmarketing.com) and about Ruins Hall in Glen Rock, PA.

Marc from Conyngham Brewing in Conyngham, PA joined Bret on the show. Marc had some great beers with him and the jalapeno lager is a definite must try! If you're traveling to the Pocono Mountains, check them out!

Adrienne was our final guest for the day and she isn't a brewer or patron, she is a business owner and is making some great charcuterie boards. You can check her products out at Barnyard Boards or on Facebook.

Thistle Finch Distillery

Season 3 Episode 12

The CPP Crew (Bret, Dave & Kevin) had Arvin Alston, Head Distiller, from Thistle Finch Distillery in Lancaster, PA in studio. We find out Arvin's history and how he became a distiller and what actually is a Thistle Finch. If you're from Lancaster, PA you've seen the Distlefink, or Thistle Finch, bird on the hex signs surrounding the Amish Country. They used the English translation to keep with the heritage in the area. We learned a lot about them and totally enjoyed our conversation. We encourage you to make a journey to visit them and Arvin will be glad to show you around.

He brought with him two styles of their rye whiskey, which was perfect for Kevin and Dave.

Season 3 Episode 11

It's a 2 for 1 episode as the CPP Crew sat down with Bill Mathias from Old Republic Distillery in York, PA and Ephrata, PA and Jimmy from Jimmy Jaxx Shine Shack in Dillsburg, PA and Red Lion, Pa. Old Republic Distillery is York's first distillery since prohibition. Jimmy could be on the Moonshiner's tv show, but instead is making some quality 'shine right here in Pennsylvania.

We had a great time getting to know them, their story and all about the distilling process. Bill brought with him a Gold & Dark Rum, Apple Pie moonshine and his Love Potion, while Jimmy brought with him a collaboration watermelon moonshine. Wow! That's all we could say about this episode. You need to tune in and find out all about the two of them.
