Episode 31 - John Holl is Back

This week we welcome back John Holl. Yes, John is officially our co-host but due to his rigorous travel schedule as the head of All About Beer magazine, he often misses recordings. As a result, we decided to dedicate an entire show to catching up with his travels and adventures. We also spent some time catching up on listener mail which revealed that Justin still hasn't seen Reservoir Dogs, can't pronounce "epinephrine", and doesn't know (or care) who Jason Statham is.

Episode 28 - Brian Strumke, Stillwater Artisanal

This week we're psyched to welcome Brian Strumke of Stillwater Artisanal to Steal This Beer! Brian's been brewing professionally for about five years under the Stillwater moniker and has traveled throughout the world making beers at other people's breweries. He's once again settled in Brooklyn (for the second time) but still travels more than he's home. Tune in to hear about what he considered his great work (HINT: it's an adjunct beer) and a new sour and wild ale project that he's launching later this year.
