This episode of "Beer Me on the Road" we go to Fairwinds Brewery in Alexandria, VA. We sit down with Charlie Buettner, Brewmaster + CEO and Chris Banich Sales + Operations Manager of Fairwinds. As more breweries are turning to canned beer over bottled, we talk about the ups and downs of using a contract canner vs. installing your own canning line. We also dive into important considerations for canning beer. Fairwinds Brewery is also known for their particularly clear beer. With hazy being all the rage, we discuss what inspired this choice, and what goes into clarifying a beer.
