Episode 351 - Trevor Rose-Hamblin & Matthew Moldenhauer, Old Irving Brewing

Happy Monday, Thieves! We’re switching things up this week, flipping the show on its head in some ways. After nearly seven years of prohibiting brewers from bringing their own beers on the show, we decided to go for it and taste some new-to-us beers that a brewery shipped us a few weeks ago while having said brewer as our guest. We didn’t plan for it to turn into this—a show where we taste and discuss the beers live with the brewer—but that’s where we landed. We wanted to freshen things up and create a new spin, and we’re really happy with how it turned out. For our first foray into this non-blind, taste-in-front-of-the-brewer conceit, we welcome Trevor Rose-Hamblin of Chicago’s Old Irving Brewing. Trevor’s sale guy, Matthew Moldenhauer, reached out and sent the beers to us right before the holidays, so all four of us are in on the action. We taste and discuss the beers one by one and give our honest feedback while hearing from the brewery why he made the beers and what ingredients and thoughts went into them. We also had our Patreon supporters as part of our “live” audience (though they were mostly on mute). All in all, it was a great time and something we’ll probably do again this year.Tune in and let us know what you think!***
