Show Notes
Show notes from Host John Holl:
"As this year limps to a close I was thinking of what usually brings me joy in and around the beer space and It’s getting together with good friends over pints for general business chat as well as a proper bullshit session.
"As this year limps to a close I was thinking of what usually brings me joy in and around the beer space and It’s getting together with good friends over pints for general business chat as well as a proper bullshit session.
Since we can’t get together in I thought that this could be a good format to bring together some of my favorite people for a chat about the year that was and to share some stories.
So on the show this week is author Melissa Cole, her new book is called “The Little Book of Lager” and it’s available now where books are sold.
Christopher Shepard is the senior editor of Craft Brew News, published by Beer Marketers Insights.
And Greg Avola is one of the founders of Untapped.
I wanted to talk a little business, have a little fun, and generally see where their heads were as this year comes to a close.
So, get a beer, get comfortable and let’s have some fun."

Cigar City Brewing
Maduro Brown Ale: Among the darkest colored and most complex cigars made in Tampa’s Ybor City is the maduro, made with an overripe wrapper and exhibiting chocolatey and earthy flavors. We draw inspiration from these sophisticated cigars and from Tampa’s cigar-making history with Maduro Brown Ale, a Northern English Brown Ale brewed with flaked oats. Full in body and silky on the palate, Maduro Brown Ale’s chocolate and espresso notes are rounded out by toffee-like qualities and a light woody hop presence. Enjoy Maduro Brown Ale with chicharrones, ropa vieja, or a fine hand-rolled cigar.
