Cheers to American Craft Beer Week

Send us Fan MailThis week, we’re raising a glass to American Craft Beer Week—because if there’s one thing we do best, it’s drinking local and talking about it loudly into microphones.Tim’s off on a secret beer mission (probably), so Brian calls in reinforcements in the form of Mo Mic Nate— beverage philosopher, and man of many hats (most of them ball caps). The SetupIt’s been one of those weeks. Nate’s fresh off sweating through a Georgia scorcher with a frosty pint in hand, and Brian’s just survived a medieval dental visit where his dentist told him—get this—he has a small mouth. (Cue audience laughter.)But never fear, the mics are hot and the beer is cold.American Craft Beer Week – What's the Big Deal?Craft Beer Week isn't just a clever excuse to drink more (though it helps). It’s a time to:Support local taprooms and breweriesTry something new on the menu (yes, even the rice lager)Remind ourselves why independent beer still hits differentBrian and Nate break down what breweries are doing to celebrate—from limited releases and glassware drops to brewery crawls and collabs.What Else Is on Tap?Brian’s post-dentist drinking logicNate’s glassware superiority complexCraft beer trends that need to chill outCraft beer trends that need more loveShoutouts to the folks keeping local beer aliveFinal ThoughtsIt's a fun, slightly unhinged episode full of good laughs, better beer, and a reminder that even when the world feels like a flat IPA, craft beer still brings people together.Thanks for listening to Beer Guys Radio!  Your hosts are Tim Dennis and Brian Hewitt with producer Nate "Mo' Mic Nate" Ellingson and occasional appearances from Becky Smalls.Subscribe to Beer Guys Radio on your favorite app: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher  | RSSFollow Beer Guys Radio: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube If you enjoy the show we'd appreciate your support on Patreon.  Patrons get cool perks like early, commercial-free episodes, swag, access to our exclusive Discord server, and more!
