Episode 129 - Craft Beer Growth and Struggles

In Episode 129 we discuss some craft beer news articles surrounding some production growth and struggles as the craft beer market expands. We discuss an article about how the craft beer community supports their own in times of need. Plus a lot of random beer conversation. So grab a beer and enjoy the show!

We are proud to partner with B Cups, supplier of Outdoor Craft Beer Cups, for partnering up with us and I encourage our listeners to go visit their site at bcups.net or fermentedreality.com and check out the world's first full line of style-specific plastic beer cups for people on the go. Whether hanging out on the beach or by the pool, or hiking the wilderness, or even enjoying some boating, B Cups are great for any place you can't use standard glassware.
