Talking Travel with Wendy

Send me a text, I'd love to hear from you!

Today's #podcast was super fun with Bob the Brewmaster from #straighttoalebrewery in Huntsville, AL. This community-minded microbrewery offers over 100 brew flavors, a full bar menu, event space, a speak-easy, a game room and lots of fun right in the heart of Huntsville.

In ten short years, they have created quite the name for themselves around the city (that they support and love) and this state. Join me as I chat with Bob, learn about their upcoming projects and events including the #stpatricksday parade and their new #wine tasting room.

They offer seasonal favorites, I love this concept. In Europe, they pride themselves on working with the seasons. It makes me almost eager with anticipation of what the next season with bringing with new flavors and irresistible tastings.

Bob also takes me on a tour - check out my YouTube for the full video tour!

Located at Campus 805
