At a recent whisky pairing dinner, I had the good fortune to sit with the head distiller from Spirit Hound Distillers which is located in Lyons. Craig Englehorn is not only the distiller, he's the founder of the company and even built the still they use himself! Craig was so interesting and has such a great history with the beer world in Colorado, as well as the spirits industry, I knew I had to have him on as a guest on the In Good Taste Denver Podcast.

But because Spirit Hounds products are available throughout most of the United States, we do double duty with this podcast, also presenting it on our international sister site's podcast, the Real Food Traveler Podcast!

Check out our article on InGoodTasteDenver.com that accompanies this podcast to see Craig, some of Spirit Hound's products and get a live link to his site.
