Wild ales, terroir, and Mall Santas with Printer's Ale Mfg. Co.

Send us Fan MailWe survived Thanksgiving and are back in the studio this week with our friends from Printer's Ale Manufacturing Co. Printer's is located in Carrollton, GA, about 50 miles west of Atlanta.  Not a bad trip for ATLiens on a weekend but far enough they don't get as much hype as some of the in town breweries.  That's too bad, because they are making some great beers and doing a lot of other cool things in Carrollton.On this visit we introduced their Woodcut Wild series of beers in Kriek, Framboise, and Peche.  After brewing, the mash for these heads to Printer's coolship but does get a little punch up with some commercial strains when going into barrels.  Oh yeah, they also brew with aged hops grown right at the brewery, and future beers will use fruit from their orchard.  Neat.We chat with Specialty Brewer Josh Watterson and owner Greg Smith about the importance of terroir in brewing, something that was previously (mostly) ignored by American brewers.  We discuss the Qatar/FIFA World Cup kerfuffle with Budweiser, mall Santas, what's in the pipeline at Printer's, and the size of Batman's mouth.Hope you enjoying this episode!  Coming up we'll be talking beer cocktails and the Beer Guys Radio Interfaith Holiday Craft Beer Extravaganza with our Jewish friends from Rainy Day Brewery drops on Dec. 17th.  Woot.  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!
