Fully Aligned

We continue our conversation with Innovation Brewmaster Ian Larkin and let  him "Pimp Our Beers". We also check in with the hotline and receive our first thirst trap! Keep your texts and calls coming at 541-241-8123!

This week, Innovation Brewmaster Ian Larkin is on the podcast and we talk about his start in the industry, becoming the brewmaster at Bend Brewing Company, his transition to 10 Barrel and winning SO many awards. We also chat about Tiny Haus, Grady's gains and cup snakes!

 

Don't forget to call/text the hotline at 541-241-8123!

We pick up where we left off with Brittney Christianson as we wrap up our Portland trip. We recap how we've all coped with working from home, chat about her hometown bar, and put some topics to debate in this episode's Hot or Not. Would canned AMFs be hot?!

While the rest of the gang are on a company retreat, Rev is here to listen to some voicemails and read some texts from the Fully Aligned Hotline. Rev has to take a shot, apologizes about a missed connection and almost secures a nude.

We wrap our Portland road trip with Brittney Christianson, the West Coast Technical Sales Manager of Lellamen Brewing Products!  Before we pack our bags, we dive into Brittney's background, life at Lellamen, and her experiences as a woman in the beer world. Plus, Brittney advises the Western IPA federation on what yeast strain they should use.

This one gets real loose. Rev's drinking "Harnold Palmers" and destroying gullible Hannah's life. We put Dan to the Bend vs Portland test. Dan creates his own segment called "Low Fills" and puts us on the spot. Dan proves he's the tagline master. Let us know how you feel the Portland trip is going - call or text us at 541-241-8123!

The Portland road trip ramps up and we've forgotten all the rules. This week we're chatting with Dan Harrill, 10 Barrel's very first brand manager and the brain behind the brand you see today. Dan takes us on a journey through his past and the drinks that made him who he is today. We talk through surviving art school, working for heavy hitters like Starbucks and Burton, and how "Drink Beer Outside" was invented. Jordan gets corrupted. Hannah drinks whiskey. Grady gets a grade. Rev has the best sign-off to date.

What is a “Western IPA”? We continue our conversation with Dylan Burgess, Owner and Operator of Look Long Brewing in Portland, Oregon. Jordan makes a big wager and we test his knowledge of Home Brewing in ‘Hot or Not’. All while nursing our Road Trip hangovers. The Rose City roadshow continues...

The Portland roadshow continues! This week we interview, Dylan Burgess, one of the newest owners of Look Long Brewing; a bar, brewery and home brew store all wrapped in one. We discuss his transition into the realm of beer and buying a brewery during a pandemic. It's one thing to buy the business and another becoming a Brewmaster, Bartender and CFO all at the same time.  What could go wrong with that?

Portland is elevating the game with cocktail packs. Margaritas on the half-pint, what could go wrong? We chat with PDX pub Gm Emily Balen Hilliard about the beer scene in Portland, Russian picked fish restaurants, 10 Barrel Coronaritas and a guest appearance from the infamous Justin Hyde. Then, we challenge Emily, the ultimate Beyonce fan, to the ultimate Beyonce quiz. 

 

Big shout out to the Portland team for having us, we're looking forward to sharing the rest of our road trip with you! In the meantime, order up a cocktail kit from the Portland Pub and spice up your listening experience! Then call our hotline: 541-241-8123!
