Podcast appearances and mentions of aspen brewing

Last week, Westbound & Down Brewing announced that it had acquired two breweries, Aspen Brewing and Capitol Creek Brewery's brewpub, both in Colorado's Roaring Fork Valley.  The deal, says Jake Gardner the Director of Brewing Operations at Westbound & Down Brewing Company, is part of a plan the brewery has been eyeing for a while. There was a desire to expand in a meaningful way, while still staying true to the brewing ethos that has guided Westbound and Down since it opened in 2015.  We'll talk business and the growth projections, and how Aspen's 7,000 barrel capacity, and Capitol Creek Brewery's brewpub will blend with the existing infrastructure.  But we're also going to talk about IPA, barrel-aged beer, and how the brewery wants to be great at all that it does.  That goal squares with Gardner's background. He started professionally brewing at Breckenridge Brewery in 2011 before transitioning to Hogshead Brewery where he worked his way up to head brewer in 2013. While working at Hogshead he connected with three mug club members who ended up becoming partners in opening Westbound & Down Brewing. This Episode is Sponsored By:ShopifyShopify's already taken the cash register online, helping millions sell billions around the world.

Laurelwood Brewing and Aspen Brewing strike a deal with Legacy Breweries. Wait... who are they exactly? It's the year of collaborations and there are a couple that just seem, well, off. And what exactly is a 'session' beer. Our heros wade into style definitions and come back broken and miserable men. It's all beer.

Like most brewers nowadays, Kyle Vetter got his foot in home brewing. He has been the oak manager at Aspen Brewing, where his fondness for barrel aged beer started to grow. A Milwaukee native, Kyle wanted to bring what he learned in Colorado home. He is the founder of 1840 Brewing – an urban farmhouse brewery focused on barrel aging and blending. He lives by the saying, “Drink slow beer!”

This week the guys recount their craft beer origins and have several beers in the process. Beers of the week: Cougar by Aspen Brewing, Blood Orange Carousel Gose by Wiley Roots Brewing, and 2016 [BANISHED] Freakcake by Crux Fermentation Project.
