Episode 360 - Matt Moon, Another Moon Brewing

Happy Monday, Thieves! We're talking to Matt Moon today who just launched his new project, Another Moon Brewing, a couple of weeks ago. Like many of his peers in the Hudson Valley, Matt specializes in a single style of beer, namely saison packaged in 750ml bottles. Matt talks about why this style is near and dear to his heart and we discuss brewing with fungi foraged from the surrounding environment. It's a thoughtful discussion enhanced with a couple of treats in the black glass. Tune in here and let us know what you think!

Episode 359 - Jennifer Newman, Young Lion Brewing

Happy Monday, Thieves! We’re chatting with Jennifer Newman this week, the CEO and co-owner of Young Lion Brewing outside Rochester, NY. Jenn’s not on the brewing side of things so we talk about more of the business aspects of brewing rather than malt bills and hop schedules. It’s a great conversation nonetheless and we have a little bit of fun with some old favorites in the black glass, to boot. Tune in here and let us know what you think!

Episode 358 - Offset Bier Co. - Conor Brown & Patrick Bourque

Happy Monday, Thieves! We’re talking low-abv beers this week with Offset Bier Co. from Park CIty, Utah. Conor and Patrick join us to discuss how they brew within the restrictions of their state’s laws and how that impacts their decisions on what to brew. We also discuss embracing creativity within restraint and have a little bit of fun (and then not so much fun) with the black glasses. Tune in and let us know what you think!

Episode 357 - Jon Mervine, Fifth Frame Brewing

Happy Monday, Thieves! We’re back on the brewer train this week with our pal Jon Mervine from Rochester’s Fifth Frame Brewing. Unsurprisingly, the conversation covers local legends Genny Cream Ale and the infamous Garbage Plate. But we also discuss powdered cream cheese and smoked beers. It’s a fun time and we hope you tune in and let us know what you think!

Episode 356 - Kai Ryssdal, Marketplace

Happy Monday, Thieves! We had a most excellent time recording with our new friend Kai Ryssdal this weekend. Kai is the host of Marketplace, an American Public Media radio show and podcast that’s broadcast every weekend evening on many NPR stations around the country, including WNYC in the great New York-New Jersey area. Kai was such a familiar voice that we felt instantly familiar with him and had a great rapport as we navigated beer and economics and much, much more. Tune in here and let us know what you think!

Episode 355 - Zoe Licata, Brewbound

Happy Monday, Thieves! We have a great show today with Zoe Licata, a reporter from Brewbound. We cover a range of topics including about how Millennials think about and cover beer and how flavors can sometimes be more important than sticking to traditional styles. It’s a fun conversation and we have some real fun with the black glasses, to boot. Tune in and let us know what you think!

Episode 354 - Heather McReynolds, Hopsteiner

Happy Monday, Thieves! We're talking to our friend Heather McReynolds today, currently of Hopsteiner and previously of Guinness and Sixpoint. We've known Heather for a while and have a great discussion about hops (duh) and other more esoteric topics, like Augie and grape jelly and the old Sixpoint brewhouse in Red Hook. If you listen long enough, you'll hear us talk about Meatloaf, Evan Watson, and Weber Grill's apology letter this past week. Justin had some real fun picking he beers this week and things go nearly off the rails as a result. We hope you tune in and let us know what you think!

Episode 353 - Alex Zolli, Brooklyn Publican/Beer Witch

Happy Monday, Thieves! One of our favorite Brooklyn publicans and bartenders, Alex Zolli, is joining us this week to talk about the state of the craft beer bar scene. As we know, craft beer bars have slowly been on the decline over the last several years, due in large part to the changing ways people consume beer. (More at brewery taprooms lately than at craft beer pubs is the current thinking.) We talk to Alex about why craft beer bars are still important and what publicans and owners can do to compete with taprooms. It’s a good chat and we have some fun in the black glasses, too. Tune in and let us know what you think!

Episode 352 - Hutch Kugeman, the Brewery at CIA

Happy Monday, Thieves! We have a great guest this week - our friend Hutch from the Brewery at the Culinary Institute of America. Hutch was supposed to be on the show way back in 2020 but we ended up canceling the in-person shows right before he was scheduled and then never got him on in the Zoom studios. That changes this week as we sit down to talk about the brewing education program at CIA. It’s a fun, educational show and we really enjoyed having him on. Tune in and let us know what you think!
