Episode 194: Hemauer Brewing (or Thick Ass Wax)

At the top of the show, we interview Nate Kresge from GK Visual, the Harrisburg production company behind Brewed in the Burg, Poured in PA, and now a new ongoing docu-series, Poured in PA: The Series. With a more in-depth focus on the stories of craft beer throughout Pennsylvania, the series is available on YouTube, and coming soon to Amazon Prime. It's worth a watch, particularly episode 5, which features a few of your favorite podcasters. Then we dive into the main episode…While many small businesses are struggling during the ongoing shutdown, Hemauer Brewing is a bright spot – they've pushed ahead and opened their doors! Founder Brooks Hemauer joins us again after his last appearance, a mere six months ago, that now feels like a decade. In the news we talk about the new Sheetz/Neshaminy Creek collab Hot Dog Beer (seriously), GABF going virtual, and the closing of the 3Floyds Brewpub. In Happy Fun Time, Wayne hosted a brand new game all about Strange Shots and Curious Cocktails. All the while maintaining social distance and keeping ourselves properly hydrated.
