A podcast 3 years in the making! Vic finally gets Jeff from Heavy Reel Brewing Companyand Zach from Gusto Brewing Companydown in the basement. Head brewers Greg and Dan join the group along with Tom and Richard. We talk about the history and growth of both breweries, some of their newest beers, perfect pours and what happens when a beer doesn’t come out as planned. We also get into a conversation about Pork Roll/Taylor Ham (Editor's note: it is clearly pork roll, taylor ham is blasphemy), haunted breweries and mysterious ice cream stands. Like Ozzy a little off the rails, but the train arrives safely.

Happy New Year and welcome to our first show of 2024. We have something a little different on tap for the new year. Manafirkin hosted a Singer/Songwriter showcase last month and Vic had the opportunity to interview several of the musicians before the show as well Todd Hunt, co owner of the brewery. So instead of hearing about yeast and mash tuns, you’ll hear about Fenders and Martins and sound systems. Thanks for listening hope you enjoy it!

Vic and Richard are joined by Alexis in the actual basement as they host Donn, Lisa and Brandon from Manafirkin Brewing Company.
In one of our more wide ranging conversations we talk about the brewery expansion, distribution, canning and, of course, try some delicious Manfirkin beers.
Manafirkin is a featured brewery at the Made in Jersey festival on September 30, so this show features a new edition of the world famous (well at least in our world) "So You Think You Can Jersey?" quiz show.
Oh and...there is also UFO talk!
Thanks for giving us a listen!
