Episode 42 - Is Indie Beer the New Craft Beer?
Episode 42 dives into the recent marketing drive to change “Craft Beer” to “Indie Beer” to separate the breweries who have chosen to sell out to big beer. Find out how John and Denny feel about this movement. We also tackle a listener question concerning how to open a wax sealed bottle. We discuss an article listing the 10 most underrated breweries in America and another article pushing for drinking beer while shopping. We encourage you to participate in our listener tasting notes segment for our next episode by picking up a bottle or can of Big Sky Brewing Moose Drool Brown Ale and tasting along with us.
