Break out your gloves, goggles, and your pH strips! For Episode 91, the Grit & Grain Podcast dives into the rarely talked about, but supremely important, sector of the beer world — line cleaners.

You may have heard our co-host Bethany Carlsen discuss her line cleaning business, The Funk Busters, but this week we get into the gritty stuff she has seen on the job (AND IN BEER LINES!). Bethany, and her partner and business partner, Greer Hubbard, cracked a few cellar bottles and regaled us with stories of beer stones, black mold, and stubborn bar owners. Ron also forced them to take the Brewers Association’s Draft Line Cleaning Quiz live! Tune in to see if they passed and to learn about why this part of our wonderful industry is so crucial.
