Manage episode 436569170 series 3502923
Ever wondered how a homebrewer can turn a passion into one of America’s largest craft breweries? Join us for an incredible journey as we unravel the inspiring story of Ken Grossman and the birth of Sierra Nevada Brewing Company. You'll learn about the trials and triumphs of starting a brewery on a shoestring budget, from repurposing dairy equipment to perfecting iconic brews like the Celebration IPA. We promise an episode brimming with fascinating insights into the craft beer revolution and the determination that fuels it.
But that's not all—get ready for some Olympic fever as we share our obsessions with quirky events like 3x3 basketball and kayaking. Hear our takes on memorable Olympic moments, including a Turkish shooter who gave us hitman vibes and a laid-back competitor who snagged a silver medal with one hand in his pocket. Plus, don’t miss our plans for an epic road trip to Oktoberfest in Munich, complete with live updates and a hilarious promise of seeing Andy in lederhosen!
Sustainability and innovation are also on tap as we explore how Sierra Nevada leads the way with green initiatives like hydrogen fuel cells and solar panels. Learn about their LEED Platinum Certified brewery in North Carolina and how they turn used cooking oil into biodiesel. We’ll even throw in a wild story about cocaine-filled sharks off the coast of Brazil and reflect on how well barbecue pairs with a cold Summerfest lager. Get ready for a rollercoaster of beer talk, Olympic banter, and unexpected tales. Cheers!
