Movie And A Beer Episode 158: A League Of Their Own

On this historically accurate episode of Movie And A Beer, we explore the 1992 film A League Of Their Own, which is about the woman's baseball league that was formed during WWII. It's directed by Penny Marshall and includes an amazing cast of actors, it follows a team of women who prove that they have what it takes to play ball in America. We also include some discussion about SheBrew, an annual female-identified brewing competition and celebration that's taking place in March. There are parallels between the empowerment portrayed in this incredible film and with the beer industry. 

Honoring female brewers is something that should be done year round and we selected a couple of rock-stars to sample beers from. Steeplejack Brewing with a Dusseldorfer Style Alt Bier and Grand Fir Brewing with a great Bohemian Style Pilsner. Both were delicious and we do discuss the origins and styles during the episode.
