Is craft beer dead? If you listen to local beer lovers’ chatter, read recent articles in the national press, or watch with sadness as some of the area’s most beloved craft breweries either close or struggle, you might think the answer is yes. However, SLM’s resident beer expert Jordan Palmer is here to set the record straight. In this episode, Jordan, an Emmy award-winning producer and writer of SLM’s craft beer newsletter, joins George and Cheryl to share his thoughts on why craft beer is very much alive—and quite possibly better than ever. And non-beer drinkers, do not fret! Jordan also dishes on some unexpected suggestions that prove there truly is a craft beer for everyone.
