This episode has been brought to you by GreatBrewers.com. “We wanted to make it a party with a beer festival attached to it, rather than a beer festival with some entertainment in the background. Over the years, I think we’ve really honed in on what we’ve wanted to do, and it’s become a blast.” — Matt Polacheck on Beer Sessions Radio See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
