On this episode, we travel down to Forest City, North Carolina where we met up with Chris McCracken of York Chester Brewing Company to speak with him about the tap takeover beers that he had over at the Twisted Pear.





York Chester Brewing Company is located at 1500 River Drive, Suite 250
Belmont, North Carolina.

Right off their page -





York Chester Brewing Company was founded in 2014 by Jarvis and Julia Roberts. YCBC, for short, was named for the beautiful York Chester Historic District in which the Roberts reside.



YCBC opened in Belmont, NC in October 2016, in the Riverside Complex which was formerly the Spectrum Dye Mill, located on the banks of the Catawba River.
YCBC is a diamond in the rough located towards the back of the industrial complex. Our small taproom provides an intimate environment in which strangers can quickly become friends through conversation or a shared board game. We have a TV for watching sports or movie night. Outside there are picnic tables provided for seating as well as a fire pit to help keep you warm!
We welcome dogs to the outdoor seating area of our brewery and have treats on hand to help them feel right at home! Children are also welcome! You may also bring your own food in to eat.





Listen in as we try 3 of their wonderful brews!

On our first ever out of state podcast, we traveled to Forest City, North Carolina where we were able to sit down and have a chat with Burnt Chimney Brewing Company head brewer, Ben Frankoski, his wife (head of quality control), Jamie Frankoski, and the man responsible for the label graphics, Chad Gordon.

Join us as we taste some delicious Burnt Chimney brews while learning how Ben got started in home brewing. We also discuss the thoughts behind the label graphics, and learn about what we have to look forward to in the future when Burnt Chimney Brewing Company becomes a destination location in Forest City, North Carolina. We certainly can't wait until our next visit so we can (fingers crossed) visit their brewery and enjoy some of these craft beers on tap!

On this episode of 'Out Here Having a Pint', we drove out to Moontown Brewing Company in Whitestown Indiana. There we met up with Jeremiah Tyson and Trey Strukel of Circle City Zymurgy which is a very known home-brew club in Indiana.

Our mission was to sit down with a flight and give Moontown a go to see if we would have a pint of their beers or if we would pass. By no means were either one of us a BJCP judge, so take our opinions with a grain of salt. With that said, together we were in company with experienced brewers for sure!.

Come have a listen as we talk through the styles and brewing processes while we drink on Moontowns finest!













Cheers!

On Episode 12, we visit Cedar Creek Brew Co in Martinsville, Indiana where we speak with Brandon Fry and one of his crew mates Mike to discuss the many beers that they have on tap as well as trying some barrel aged additions.

Cedar Creek is a special place where not only do they brew beer, but they are also a winery and distillery.

As we deep dive into a flight, we ask Brandon a number of questions around his start in the brewing world as well as the continued vision that he and owner Bryce Elsner has in store this year.

If you visit Cedar Creek, be sure to grab a pint of their award winning Breakfast Stout that was indeed very tasty.

You will find the OHHAP crew hanging out here quite often, and if you're ever in the neighborhood, we recommend you do so too.
















Cheers!

What do you do when you're recovering from the flu and you get word that James Watt is hosting a launch event? You go!!!!!

Join us at the Atlas Ballroom in Bloomington, Indiana for the official Brewdog Launch, a day that we are positive will go down in craft beer history. On this episode, we have a deep discussion about our passion for Brewdog craft beer, our frequent trips to the brewery in Columbus, Ohio, our favorites of the Brewdog beer line up, the amazing Brewdog staff, and let us not forget, Brian Morahan, our surprise guest and the man who is making it happen by bringing Brewdog beers to as many Indiana taprooms as possible, and from what we hear people are loving it! That's really no surprise is it?

Later in the episode, you'll catch us having a little fun and going off the rails after enjoying a bit of Brewdog Cocoa Psycho which comes in at 10% ABV, but man is it a tasty brew! We'll take you on a tour of the Atlas Ballroom, the first place to launch Brewdog in Bloomington, Indiana and have a chat about the atmosphere and the $20.00 ramen noodles. Or let's hope we were just a tad intoxicated and they weren't really that much. You won't want to miss this episode.

On this episode, we attended a Tasting Society event that was held at The Hatch in Indianapolis, hosted by Indiana on Tap. This sold out event featured homebrewers only, from the widely known homebrew club, Circle City Zymurgy. As all 250 tickets were sold out for this unlimited 3oz. pours event, the beer was flowing for several hours that evening, and it was apparent CCZ was a hit! Join us as we drink and talk our way through the venue.

In this episode you'll hear from several of the homebrewers who were pouring their beer, Kevin goes in the field and chats with the attendees about their favorite brews, and we had a special guest with us, Tony Musgrave, whom we interviewed from 21 North Eatery and Cellar in Episode 0. This episode is going to be in two parts, Part One will be with Tony and Kevin out on the floor discussing the brews on the menu and visiting the club stations to chat with the brewers in action! Stay tuned for Part Two where we will follow up with Rob, who was pouring several of his hit beers, as well as Nick Boling, Brady Smith, and Jeremy Railey, all members of Circle City Zymurgy.

On this episode, we interview John Moorhead of the American Homebrewers Association. Now John may have been on a speaker phone because the audio is muffled (is that a word?), however it's the content that matters for home brewers.

So, relax, don't worry, have a home brew while you listen!

Mic check..., 1, 2, 1, 2.....Bueller!!


Hey there, in what we're calling Episode 0, we interviewed the owners (Tony and Connie Musgrave) at 21 North Eatery and Cellar in Martinsville, Indiana. While on location, we discussed their fantastic restaurant and asked how craft beer is impacting the business.

It was a fun night and we were ready for any audio issues the next morning. This was the first time that we were in the field with our new equipment. We did have the mic volume up a tad too much in the beginning, but we were able to bring the audio down as much as we could without degrading the quality in post editing.
