InterBrews: A Craft Beer Centric Podcast Based in Texas

Episode 103 was recorded in the InterBrews Stew-dio where Josh & TD Mike welcomed in Greg “Mexico” Mendez and Alex Vasquez in from Mississippi via Skype to discuss the fantastic beers that Mexico sent. Both Mexico and Alex work in the craft beer industry in Mississippi. Mexico at Chandeleur Brewing in Gulfport and Alex is one of the founders at Mississippi Brewing also in Gulfport. Along with the treasure trove of Mississippi beer mail that magically appeared at the Stew’d Productions World Headquarters, the guys go deep on all things Mississippi beer. So Hotty Toddy Yadda Yadda Yadda. This Is InterBrews!

Episode 102 of InterBrews was recorded at The Brigadoon Brewery and Brew School with Brewmaster Alan Ward. You hear Brigadoon’s contribution to every episode with their Moment In Beer History and now you get to hear directly from the man behind it all. In this edition of the MIBH Josh and Alan discuss what the Pilgrims drank at the first Thanksgiving. Also discussed in this episode is Brigadoon’s new La Porte location as well as 2016’s La Porte Mardi Gras and Firkin Fest. We consumed Black Plague as talked beer, life and love. It will warm your heart. This Is InterBrews.

Special thanks also goes to Texas Homebrewers and Brewheart Apparel along with Brigadoon Brewery for making this episode possible with their support.

Episode 101 was recorded as the rain and the temperature dropped outside while we were toasty warm inside No Label Brewing Company with owners/founders Jennifer and Brian Royo. It’s hard to believe it’s already been 5 years of beer fueled awesomeness from the Katy brewery. As always, the Royos are fun to chat and have beers with as we discuss the past 5 years, the next 10 years and what cheeses pair best with their tasty lineup. We got giddy as we talked the pending release of Perpetual Peace and we all got to witness TD Mike become a man. As always we must say thanks to the great sponsors that make InterBrews possible – Brewheart Apparel, Texas Homebrewers and Brigadoon Brewery and Brew School. Enjoy the podcast. This is InterBrews.
