Anniversaries & Surviving the Great American Beer Festival
Who’s ready for an anniversary party? Nic Bortolin, co-owner & head brewer at 14 Cannons, stops in to talk about the big five-year anniversary party on October 15. We’re also talking about the Great American Beer Festival, the big news in Milwaukee, the best Marzens for Oktober, and how bad things are getting in New Jersey.

Nic tells us about the fun going down at the anniversary party: FOUR new beers are dropping (including his first hazy), the food trucks, and his band, the Scuba Kids, are headlining! He also talks about his upcoming trip to GABF, the beers that they are entering, and the hangover cures to make it through the weekend of festivities. We also ask him the hard questions like what his favorite pumpkin beer is, and what happened to Cold IPAs?

Chew Your Beer calls in to talk about a new collab beer, getting beer-chunky for the fall, and wearing short shorts.

Big news in Flex’s hood, Milwaukee Brewing has been purchased by Eagle Park Brewing. On the other side of town, Molson Coors employees in Milwaukee are picketing over a lack of a contract. Massachusetts proves that they’re awful by vetoing happy hour. A brewery in New Jersey is suing the ABC over all of the insane brewery rules. And we’ve got the 10 best Marzens/Festbiers of 2022.
