It’s not often that we get to feature other beer podcasters on the Pubcast, but the Great American Beer Festival was the perfect spot for some quick collaborations. Aaron Johnson hosts the Cascadian Beer Podcast, a show that highlights the stories behind craft beer in the Pacific Northwest. Aaron was also at GABF covering the festival for his podcast, and after we sampled some brews together, we jumped behind the mics to discuss the event, a few of our favorite beers from the weekend, and Aaron’s own international journey that got him into beer podcasting.

It’s time to crack a beer and dust off that passport because the Pubcast is back and we’re heading to Romania! We traveled there during the holidays in December 2019, so it’s time to revisit some winter warmers and international beverages in general. In this episode, we sit down with Ioana Coca and Laurentiu Mandrila, Co-Owners and Brewers at Oriel Beer in Bucharest. We discuss their focus on Belgian beers, the Romanian craft beer community, and their very creative and often non-traditional barrel-aging program.
