Mon, 11 Sep 2023 13:00:00 -0500

For episode 300 we have a stacked panel in to discuss one of the most precipitous rise and falls in modern craft beer - The American Wild / Sour Ale

Plus we talk about why this fall might ultimately be a good thing, and reasons to feel optomistic about the future of some of the most complex and beautiful beers ever created.

Featuring Paul Arney of Ale Apothecary, Vinnue Cilurzo of Russian River, Ron Jeffries of Jolly Pumpkin, and John Laffler of Off Color.
