34 - State of Beer Roundtable w John A. Paradiso + Richie Tevlin | Style trends, beer economics, non-alc beer, Year of the Lager, mascots, and hot takes

Beer People John and Richie return for a new episode format in which we discuss the state of the beer industry over the past year. John’s now into the second year of running The Daily Beer Bar, after gigs at Hop Culture and Cool Material, and Richie’s making BIG career moves after leaving Victory Brewing. Their unique perspectives on the industry shed light on 2023’s style trends, economic competition in the beer market, non-alcoholic beer, whether we’ve *finally* reached the year of the lager, and more. We end with each person's hot takes for 2024, and a couple wish list items, too.
