The Brewery Underground Podcast : Craft Beer Stories and Adventures

Beer Drinking is ultimately what we do, and why we started the podcast and our Brewery Adventures page.When we see other people like us, who have turned their passion for craft beer drinking into something more, we have a huge appreciation for that - and that's why we wanted to have Matt and Ryan from Cincy Brew Dads on with us.Matt and Ryan are the definitions of true craft beer drinkers, and they have turned their own love of it into a YouTube channel and Instagram page called Cincy Brew Dads.Not only do they review beers on both platforms, but they visit and record episodes from breweries, events and their front porches.In this episode we get to talk to the guys on Ryan's front porch and we learn about where their craft beer journeys started, how did a blown down fence lead to them meeting each other, and when and why did they decide to start Cincy Brew Dads?The content they are putting out is excellent, it's well thought out, descriptive and is very high quality.These are the types of guys you want to go hang out with and share beers with, and that's exactly what we're going to be doing in the near future.Keep up the good work guys!Go check out all of Cincy Brew Dads' content and reach out to them, we're sure they'll appreciate that.Cheers!

What happens when a corporate career, a love for craft beer, and a desire to give back to the community all collide? You get Mr. Brews Taphouse in Smyrna & Murfreesboro.In this collab episode with Mitch & Rich of The Foamy Heads, we sit down with Marty & Mindy Bell, the family behind Mr. Brews, to talk about how they built a family-friendly restaurant with 30+ rotating taps, why they chose Tennessee for expansion, and what it really takes to run a craft beer-focused business.From Great Lakes Brewing Co. hitting Tennessee to rare pours like Bourbon County variants on draft, we get into how Marty selects beers , plus the balance between craft beer nerd culture and running a full restaurant.We also dive into the transition from corporate life to owning a taphouse, building out locations from the ground up, why Rutherford County was underserved for craft beer, and running a true family business.Events, tap takeovers, keeping the beer list fresh, bringing unique, hard-to-find beers to local drinkers, and the love/hate relationship with Untappd, are other topics we talk about during this episode.We had a great time talking to Marty and Mindi and learned a lot about their journey to Mr. Brews.We hope you enjoy the episode and even more-so, we hope you go visit them at either or both of their locations.Additionally, after our conversation with Marty and Mindi ended, we had a couple of friends join us on the mics, who were already in the building.Shane and Ryan joined us for to share some beers, talk a little beer and just hand out for a bit - for some additional bonus content.Cheers!
