After a horribly long amount of time off, we have returned!! In November of 2020 we talked to the amazing folks at Dirty Oar Brewing in Cocoa Village. The episode was great, and the beer was even better.  As it tends to happen, life got in the way. The intent was to publish this episodes weeks ago. Long story short, my family was affected by COVID-19, and everything was put on hold. Not only did COVID halt season 2 before it could get rolling, but it messed with the release of this episode. Chris Hughes and Paul Hill were amazing guests and I feel bad that I was unable to give them the attention and the spotlight they definitely deserve. Todd Furbeck, the brewer from Hell n Blazes Brewing was an amazing cohost for this episode.  In short, they make great beer, and somehow, better conversation. Enjoy the episode, and we look forward to seeing on on February 13th in Cocoa Village at the 2nd Annual Cocoa Village Brewer's Bash!

This episode is going to be the finale of season 1. Coronavirus is going to make future episodes difficult, but have no fear, there will be a season 2.  

We sat down with Pete Anderson, the man behind the beer at Pareidolia Brewing in Sebastian, Florida. Pete was such a great host, and hopefully, we'll have some great content with him in the future. His Soul-less Hipster Saison was my favorite. Pete is making great beer, and better conversation. Even though we can only do take out, swing by and pick up a growler. Let him know D & D sent you.

David and Joe carpooled up to Titusville for a great sit down session. The day started off with Aaron of Fat Drum brewing, and after that we sat down with Ron and Laura. We talked about everything from Disney beers, to 15% barrel-aged beer, to Umami. Playalinda has only been in operation for 5 years, but it has quickly become a standout in Central Florida. Grab a Key Lime Slice (beer), enjoy some shishito peppers, and enjoy the show. 

We sat down with Aaron Robinson, and talked about the trials and tribulations involved with starting a new brewery. These can include finding the perfect location, zoning, developing beer recipes, and also what to have on a food menu. Aaron is a member of the Army National Guard, an avid home brewer, and an all around nice guy. We wish nothing but the best for this brewery, and will document the build out process. 

In this episode Joe and David sat down with Dave Swartz. Dave is the owner of Coasters Pub, which has been the great beer destination in Brevard County for over 30 years. We talk about the history of the business, the history of Dave, and of course, beer. We even had a special guest, Troy Barfoot. Troy has been doing his part to bring great people and great beer together for many years. We all drank some Delirium in preparation for Coasters Pub's annual Belgian beer Fest. Make sure you go see them February28th-March 1st 2020.  

In this episode, we decided to stay home and reflect on our first five brewery-centric interviews. We still focused on beer as much as possible. We introduced a new guest co-host, Brittany Arroyo. Having multiple co-hosts available will allow us to have as much fresh content as possible, and also bring in another POV to the show. 

Joe and David have a chat with Steve Shannon. Steve previously worked in the aerospace industry, and now he does much more noble work. Steve is part of the brewing team at Bugnutty Brewing. Have a listen, and you will find out where the term, "bug nutty" comes from. 

After being absent for 2 episodes David is back, and the Drinkin' & Drivin' Dynamic Duo sit down steps from the beach with another Dynamic Duo from Beachfly Brewing, Zach Featherstone and Will Brant. We discuss their beers, and even some beer cocktails that they make in house. 

In this episode, I sat down with Kimmy Schlafly, Stephen Hale, Jared Williamson, and Wil Rogers of the St. Louis, MO institution that has been brewing delicious craft beer since 1991.
