E318: Cherry Street Brewing and DJ Jelly

Send us Fan MailHanging out with Cherry Street Brewing and The Real DJ JellyCherry Street Brewing's original location in Cumming, GA isn't far from Atlanta.  But city folk aren't big on leaving their circle so Cherry Street was somewhat of a hidden treasure in Georgia beer for a while.  Us folks out here in the 'burbs can be scary, ya know.  The opening of a 2nd location in Alpharetta put them closer to the masses, and within a distance more people weren't too scared to visit.  Their beer is worthy of the trip and every bit as good as some of the best in Atlanta proper.  Plus, you can get some killer chicken tenders at their Cumming location or the best fish and chips I've had in the Metro at their Halcyon location.  Take the trip, order the fish, try several beers.  It'll be worth it.Director of Sales and long time friend of the show Ramsay Florence joined us this week to fill us in on the latest happenings.  They've recently opened a location in Chattanooga, TN and the beer laws there allow them to do some self distribution.  Beer laws, what fun.  We've talked about them enough in the past we'll move on this time.  Ramsay talks about some of their core beers, some fun wild ales in the works, and future plans for the brewery.  I misunderstood some of the notes when chatting before the show and told a dirty lie regarding news on their 4th location.  Sorry about that, it's totally Ramsay's fault, though.Atlanta hip-hop icon DJ Jelly joined us in the studio as well.  We met him recently at Atlantucky Brewing where he was spinning some records for the Nappy Hour.  We shared a few beers and learned about his history in the Atlanta music scene.  Working with LL Cool J, Goodie Mob, Bubba Sparxxx, Doug E. Fresh, and premiering some of the best acts of 90s on Atlanta radio. He even produced the classic Flo Rida's Get Low.Pairing exotic Kit Kats and Cherry Street beersWe've all seen the beer and Girl Scout cookie pairings.  Well we're kicking that up a notch.  Brian took a trip to the local Asian market and grabbed some of their unique Kit Kat bars.  Melon, Strawberry Chocolate, and Matcha.  Madness.  Ramsay samples each and tells us what Cherry Street beers we should pair up with them.The Beer ListCherry Street BrewingSa’bro DDH DIPALake Beer LagerStrawberry Side of the Moon (Berliner with Strawberries and Blackberries)Irie Hop (DDH DIPA)Monday Night Brewing / Atlantucky HumdingerFollow, Subscribe, Share!If you enjoyed this episode please share it with a friend and make sure to follow us on the socials!Listen and Subscribe: The Podcast Park | Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | SpotifyFollow: Instagram | Facebook | TwitterSupport the show on Patreon and get all episodes commercial free plus other cool perks.See 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!
