Batch 366: We’re so excited to be hanging out with Monica Potter, head brewer of Pedals & Pints Brewing Company. She’s here to talk about Pedals’ upcoming beer festival on July 29! She also hangs around to talk about making sure you know how to lager, the awful New Jersey brewery laws, why making Hazy IPAs is the WORST, drinking beers in college, and Charles Barkley buys a round.

Pedals and Pints is hosting its annual “Down the Rabbit Hole” music and beer festival. Monica is giving us all the fun details.

And he talks about going to the Ceviche Chow Down and what a great event it was.
