Episode 64 - 2017 Craft Beer Predictions

Episode 64 starts off 2017 with some craft beer predictions for the year.  We welcome Kris McKenzie back as a guest host as John is enjoying some vacation time.  Kris and Denny discuss two articles with different takes on the craft beer scene for the year as well as insert our own predictions of the trends.  There is plenty of off topic beer talk as well, so grab a cold one and enjoy the show.  We encourage you to participate in our listener tasting notes segment in this episode by picking up a bottle of the Full Sail Brewing Wassail winter warmer and tasting along with us.
