26 JUL 2021 · This episode was a little…uh… experiment. I wanted to record this week's episode live at the Clear Mountain Food Park in Batavia, and while – I did – it wasn't very smooth. As always seems to be the case it turned into an experiment that didn't function the way I wanted it too. Some technical issues bounced around for the first live stream. I got it all fixed, but you're left with a little shorter episode today than you're used to. With my apologies – give it a listen, and get yourself out to the Food Park to see for yourself what they're doing out there. Not only is it a fantastic addition to the area, it's an incredible beer garden for this city, too. Huge thanks to Tony from the Queen City Mobile Food Truck Organization for hanging out with me over a few beers and talking about the park!

5 JUL 2021 · I have to admit to you, I wasn’t going to have a show for you this week. It’s been hardcore family time this weekend, and last week had quite the schedule, too. Holiday weeks, you know? I couldn’t do it, though. Not only was I wanting to try some fun technology things out to see how "basic" I could produce a whole episode – but I just can’t stand when there isn’t something to upload on a Monday morning. So… it’s a short show, a little abbreviated to say the least – and I don’t really give you much fun conversation – but at least I got to say hi and have a quick beer with you, right? We'll be back to normal next week – along with a live episode of The Weekly Pint on Monday Night, and an episode of Prost over on YouTube on Thursday! From The Beer Fridge * Listermann – Pride 2021

1 MAR 2021 · In a world where craft beer has created every concept imaginable, from massive production breweries to movie theaters to breweries aboard cruise ships… there aren't many things that feel as great as a good, old, neighborhood brew pub. The folks behind Montgomery Public House (also lovingly called MPH) knew that when they started planning for their space in downtown Montgomery. Built upon a foundation of great food, great beer and great service – these guys had no idea that when they opened their doors in 2020, it would be in the middle of a global pandemic. They've soldiered on, though. Today we have a space that their loyal customers are happy to call home, and folks like me are more than happy to visit! I sat down to get the rundown of how the brewery came to be. We drank a few beers and explored exactly what their concept is all about, and even dove into the question that might hit you as soon as you look at their tap lineup – What's with the Left Hand Brewing Company beers? It was a great show! Make sure that you subscribe on your favorite podcast platform, and if you like what we're doing each week – consider heading over to support!

22 FEB 2021 · This was a little different. I had an idea, and some goofy behind-the-scenes stuff that I needed to test out – so we rolled with it. I called a couple of friends (Justin and Danny from Sonder) and we did a long-distance Brewcast that hopefully doesn't sound too much like it. The idea was simple… I threw together two little packs of beers for a blind tasting – none of us knew what beers were what, and we just started drinking, and talking. If you have been listening along with the journey of Cincy Brewcast since the beginning, you know that shows like this are how we sort of started – just fun ideas with good people and some beers… I hope to bring a little bit of that spirit back in the future. While the beers that we drank weren't the freshest, it really wasn't the point. It was about the conversation, the act of "getting together" and having a drink… even if it was digitally.

15 FEB 2021 · Sometimes scheduling doesn't work out – it's often that life takes over, family takes over and it just doesn't work. This week? My guest that was supposed to be on the show let me down though… I was up a certain creek, without a paddle. This is why we have friends. The guys over at March First shot me a message as soon as they heard what I was going through, and said they'd be happy to jump on the show and chat. I ran over, eager to hang out over a beer and talk about whatever came into the conversation – after all… I'm a huge fan. Between the brewery, distillery, taprooms, let alone their little "side project" podcast called Shift Beers? There is a lot we could talk about… and a lot we did. If you want to know more about March First, obviously you can read about them here on the website, or if you wanna do things the official way, they've got their own website too. As for that Shift Beers Podcast I mentioned? You should definitely head over and subscribe to that – it's on Apple and probably wherever else you listen to your podcasts, too!

1 FEB 2021 · Dead Low Brewing has been through a lot in their short life here in the Cincinnati Craft Beer Community – and with the chaos that the last year has brought, they're definitely looking forward to what the future has in store for them. I sat down this week with their head brewer, Grant Thompson, who came on board just as Covid hit the industry in 2020. With how… "weird", the last year has been, I know that a lot of folks haven't had the chance to sit down and get to know him, and what he's all about – so this episode spends a lot just diving into what makes him tick. We talk about how he got into the industry, how he ended up here in Cincinnati, and what he likes to brew. Of course… we drank a couple of beers along the way, too! Guests This Episode * Grant Thompson – Dead Low, Head Brewer From The Beer Fridge * Dead Low – Zwickel Pilsner* Dead Low – Baltic Porter* Dead Low – Shwarzbier* Dead Low – Kettle Soured Pale Ale* Dead Low – Session IPA* Dead Low – Imperial Stout
