S.2 E.14 Millet - Business in the Front, Party in the Back

What do millet, buckwheat, sunflower seeds, and hemp have in common? They are all non-cereal grains malted at Colorado Malting Company in Alamosa, Colorado. The obscure malts can be added to a traditional grain bill or singularly to produce gluten-free beer and spirits.  Today's guests, brothers Josh and Jason Cody, take farm-to-tap to a new level as the only brewery in the world where every ingredient in its beers comes from the family farm.  Josh and Jason's grandfather started the family-run Colorado Malting Company and then passed it onto their father. Located in San Luis Valley of Southern Colorado, Alamosa, this farm-to-glass operation is positioned in a unique climate with crazy heat/UV indexes, making it exceptional for growing small grains and bringing those to harvest high-quality status.
