One misleading social post can spark a frenzy – but can brands keep playing with consumer trust? We unpack the curious ruse of a beloved emerging brand and the growing debate around "rage bait."  We also dig into Whole Foods' latest LEAP cohort and what its emerging-brand picks reveal about the next wave of CPG. Plus, we sample functional freeze pops and flavored dried mango, and hear  from the founders of three fast-growing brands about building community, creating better-for-you products and turning retail distribution into sustainable growth. Show notes: 0:20: London Calling, Buyer Bingo, LEAP Year, Creamed. Functional Freeze Pops, Better-For-You-ish – The hosts preview the October 21 London meetup at TRIP HQ, along with Nosh Live, BevNET Live and Brewbound Live in Los Angeles in December, highlighting speakers and one-to-one opportunities with Whole Foods buyers and Venable. They then examine Whole Foods Market's 2026 LEAP cohort and what the selections suggest about CPG, including global flavors, cultural heritage, convenience and food-based functionality. The conversation turns to Pistakio's social post suggesting the brand was ending, which was later clarified as the sunsetting of an earlier product version. The hosts consider the engagement and potential trust risks of "rage bait" and misleading framing. They also point listeners to a Nombase interview with Whole Foods buyer Charlie New, then sample Sleet Pops' freeze pops and discuss functional ingredients and cold-chain flexibility. Finally, they taste Chici Mama's flavored dried mango bites and debate whether they are better viewed as dried fruit or a better-for-you candy alternative, exploring what "better-for-you" really means. 27:08: Interviews from Taste Radio's San Francisco Meetup – Ray sits down with San Francisco Brewing Company founder Josh Leavy, Rotten founder Michael Fisher, and Bakeful founder and CEO Tony Davis for conversations about building brands, connecting with consumers, and navigating growth. From creating community around craft beer and leveraging founder-led social media to winning national retail distribution and driving repeat purchases, the interviews explore the opportunities and challenges facing emerging CPG brands.

How did a brown ale score 97 out of 100 to become the best beer in the country? Plus: learn exactly what its brewer put into it.Kishwaukee Brewing Co-Owner and Head Brewer Dan Payson and Co-Owner Cara Payson (marketing, customer service,and self-described “Jill of all trades”) share how a laid-off Seattle architect turned homebrewing into a pro career, thanks in part to a hockey challenge against legendary brewer Skip Madsen. Dan explains what separates a Kolsch from a Pilsner, why a hybrid yeast gives Kestrel Kolsch its citrus-rind finish, and what makes Bufflehead, an American-style brown ale, different from its English cousin. Plus: how Bufflehead went from a single pilot keg to World Beer Cupsilver and a 97-point rating as The Beer Connoisseur's 2025 Best Beer of the Year, why opening during the pandemic made Kishwaukee a bottles-only brewery, and Cara's case that “hazy is lazy.”0:00 Inside Kishwaukee Brewing in Woodstock, Illinois3:20 The Seattle Craft Beer Scene in the Early 2000s5:48 Did Beer Bring Dan and Cara Together?7:23 Why an Architect Started Homebrewing During the Recession10:24 Learning Beer at Bottleworks and Fremont Brewing12:08 Dan's First Homebrew: A West Coast IPA13:43 Remember 22-Ounce Bomber Bottles?14:39 Deciding to Go Pro (and a Hockey Story Tease)17:29 Scoring on Skip Madsen: The Hockey Challenge That Built a Brewery22:36 Brian Noonan vs. Brian Noonan: A Blackhawks Mix-Up25:40 Beer break25:47 Brewer's Choice: Kestrel Kolsch From a Mug Club Brew Day27:47 Kolsch vs Pilsner: What's the Difference?28:10 What Is a Kestrel?

In this long-awaited jukebox episode, Barry and Abigail are joined by Dr. Alinor “Lucky” Mezinord to dig into J. Cole's 2014 Forest Hills Drive—an album Lucky considers one of the greatest of all time and one that deeply resonated with his own experience growing up. The group also rated two beers from Magic 13 Brewing Company in Miami, Florida: Islander and American Dream. The conversation quickly becomes much more than a discussion of hip-hop: it explores ambition, identity, family, community, race, success, and the choices that shape a life. Lucky explains why J. Cole's conscious, story-driven style connected with him, particularly as someone who grew up reading and looking for a different path out of his community. Barry and Abigail are struck by the album's unusually strong narrative structure. Rather than simply being a collection of songs, 2014 Forest Hills Drive follows an arc from J. Cole's childhood and aspirations, through his emergence as a successful rapper, to his growing discomfort with the persona and lifestyle that accompany fame—and ultimately his return to his roots. The title itself becomes part of that story: 2014 Forest Hills Drive was the address of the home his mother lost to foreclosure, which Cole later purchased and repurposed as housing for single mothers in his community.They then explore how songs such as “January 28th,” “Wet Dreamz,” “03' Adolescence,” “A Tale of 2 Citiez,” and “Fire Squad” portray the competing pressures facing young people: the desire to escape poverty, the lure of money and status, limited opportunities, and the importance of supportive people who encourage you to pursue a different path. Lucky brings a particularly personal perspective to these themes, connecting the album to his own experiences growing up in Miami and eventually becoming a physician. The discussion also considers how seemingly small decisions accumulate over time—and how circumstances, family support, opportunity, and adversity can be just as important as individual choices.As Cole achieves the success he dreamed about, the album's tone changes. “Saint Tropez,” “G.O.M.D.,” and “No Role Modelz” become launching points for a discussion about what happens when ambition turns into ego and when success creates distance from the people and places that shaped you. Abigail also took the opportunity to share the sample from Berta, Berta by Branford Marsalis, highlighting the slavery imagery used in the music video for “G.O.M.D.”The emotional heart of the album—and the episode—comes with “Hello” and “Apparently.” Barry sees “Hello” as a continuation of the story begun in “Wet Dreamz,” while Abigail and Lucky offer different interpretations of whether Cole ultimately chooses to return to the relationship represented in the song. “Apparently,” meanwhile, brings the story back to Cole's mother, his childhood home, and the sacrifices and love that helped make his success possible. The hosts discuss how repeated lyrics gain new meaning as the album progresses, reinforcing their appreciation of Cole's songwriting and sequencing.The discussion closes with “Love Yourz” and the controversial “Note to Self.” The hosts debate whether “Love Yourz” offers an empowering message about appreciating what you have or risks sounding like a prescription for complacency. Abigail also enters “Love Yourz” into The Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music by comparing elements of the song to “Same Love” by Macklemore.“Note to Self,” a lengthy spoken-word set of credits and thank-yous, produces perhaps the episode's funniest disagreement: Barry wants to skip it, while Abigail and Lucky love the personality and behind-the-scenes glimpse it provides.And, after nearly a year of waiting to record this episode, Lucky gets the honor of choosing the next jukebox album, “Criminal Minded” by Boogie Down Productions, submitted by Barry's brother (and Abigail's uncle) Derek Hummel.

Jason and Nitesh, the co-founders of 28 States Brewing Co. join Herlinda Heras and Daedalus Howell in the studio on Brew Ha Ha today. ProChiller Green will be performing a Proof of Concept test at Hanabi Lager on September 23, 2026, to demonstrate the ProGreen Chiller in a brewery. Visit ProChiller online for more info. 28 States Brewing was founded 11 months ago in San Francisco, named after the 28 states of India. Nitesh comes from home brewing and opening a brewery is a big step. They are making beer with Indian spices and even toasted basmati rice. The name is Desi Gaijin. Daedalus finds that it is subtle and balanced.  +++++Visit Russian River Brewing Co. in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Check out their website and socials for up-to-dated hours, menus, beers, special events and more. ++++++ Next they taste a Hefeweizen, made on an open fermenter. Nitesh explains that San Francisco has natural bacteria in the air that makes San Francisco sourdough bread special. He fermented this beer using open fermentation so he captures the same local microbes. There is a funk and a savory finish that comes from the bacteria. He will be experimenting with open and closed fermentation. It is called Haryana Weizen. Haryana is Nitesh’s native state. Weizen beer has to be 60% wheat and this is 61%. From the bar to the sales call Jason and Herlinda discover that they both were bartenders before ever working in sales. It’s a great training ground, for learning how to talk to all kinds of people. Jason met Nitesh by simply talking about beer. ******Visit our sponsor Pro Chiller online for all the info about their new CO2-based Pro Green Solutions Chiller.****** Nitesh was home brewing while working in tech. During Covid, when everyone was working at home, he started home brewing with advice from his mentor, Lester Koga of Barebottle Brewing. He started 28 States before he met Jason. Now there are so many flavors in is beer it’s amazing. He describes one called Mango Elaichi Sour flavored with Indian mangoes and cardamom. Herlinda will host a beer cruise from Basel, Switzerland down the Rhein past Strasbourg, France ending in Amsterdam. It will be in November 2027, because these trips are always planned well in advance. There will be local beer tastings all along the way. Imaging coming into port and taking a bike ride while the chefs go shopping in town for fresh bread and delicious foods that the countryside produces. There is a $1000 discount available up to September 30. Email chelsea@cruiseplanners.com to book the cruise and get the early discount.

On episode 262, we're chopping it up with Oak Cliff Brewing head brewer, Conor Reeves. OCB is celebrating their eight year anniversary on September 5, 2026, and Conor lets us know what beers will be available. Plus, he shares how he transitioned into this career from the golf industry, starting with his time at Grapevine Craft Brewery. Once Tony joins the conversation around the halfway point, we get into our beats of the week which include Tierra Whack, Gus Dapperton, Dawn Richard, and Fonville X Fribush.

Vince Ferracuti, CEO, and Matt and Alex, brewers for Iron Ox Brewing Co. join Herlinda Heras on Brew Ha Ha. This is their first time on the show. Herlinda is just back from Tahoe Brew Fest, which is an emerging beer festival that benefits the Boys and Girls Club. Ski Run Blvd. runs down the mountain and straight through town. It was lined with brewers. They also staged an event called the Brewers Olympics, where the competitors did hilarious feats of strength and endurance, with beer stuff. They had both a men’s and women’s division and Herlinda’s friend from Crooked Goat won the men’s event. Iron Ox Brewing Co. is located on Industrial just off of Piner Rd., across the street from Bottle Barn. They have a taproom and a beer garden, and food trucks that come by. In addition to Iron Ox, Matt has been running Three Disciples for the last five years. Some folks from Three Disciples were on Brew Ha Ha on this episode back on Dec. 1, 2022. First they taste the 707 Sonoma County Ale, an easy-drinking light-bodied but big hoppy flavored beer. It is only 5% AVB.  Matt says if you want a successful taproom you have to create an inviting environment and you have to make good beer. Alex started brewing for Bear Republic and has also worked in wine production. +++++Visit Russian River Brewing Co. in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Check out their website and socials for up-to-date hours, menus, beers and more.+++++ The Growing N/A Category Iron Ox Brewing also makes a non-alcoholic beer. Herlinda recently helped the Petaluma Music Festival organize a tasting booth for N/A drinks. As a beer judge for festivals and conventions, Herlinda has noticed how this category is growing. When she first started judging 14 years ago, nobody wanted to judge in the category but now judges are more interested in it as the category has grown. ***** Visit our sponsor Pro Chiller online for all the info about their new CO2-based Pro Green Solutions.***** There is big news with N/A brewing. Iron Ox has recently acquired a reverse-osmosis system. They prefer this method because it is more delicate way to take the alcohol out. This method is more popular in Europe. Iron Ox Brewing Co. has a family-friendly beer garden that is is built for fun. They have held rubber ducky races and Hot Wheels races. They have corn hole every Tuesday and open mic on Thursday nights. The schedule of food trucks is on their website. They are open Mon-Thurs 4-10, Fri 3-10, Sat 2-9 and Sun 1-7 (all times PM). 

Alberta is one Canadian craft beer scene that we haven't tapped into enough, so we're fixing that right now - we were stoked to sit down with one of the most hyped breweries in Calgary. Production Manager and Head Brewer Donovan Fast leads the liquid for Eighty-Eight Brewing Co., and he joined Cee and Nate to chat about his international craft brewing career that took him from Manitoba to Germany to Alberta, what he learned from the classic German brewers, how he landed the Head Brewer job before Eighty-Eight opened (and has been the sole Head Brewer in their history), how the Calgary craft beer scene has grown over the years, how Eighty-Eight went from a Belgian-style brewery to a more modern, IPA-focused brewery and COVID's effect on that decision, the slew of awards they've won, their core-to-seasonal beer release strategy, his thoughts on Canada-wide distribution and Eighty-Eight's approach, their interprovincial collaborations, how their eighth anniversary went, and the future of the brewery. They got into six absolute bangers from Eighty-Eight: Midnight Downtown Rice Lager, Hammer Pants West Coast Pale Ale, Hi-Fi Hazy IPA, Pop Rocks Fruited Sour with pink guava + berries, Wave Pool Tropical IPA, and Party All The Time Double NEIPA. This was so dope - more Alberta content on the way!  BAOS Podcast Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube | Website | Theme tune: Cee - BrewHeads

(8/27, pt. 2 of 2) Barry Bicker, Moonlight Brewing co-owner and President, joins Herlinda Heras and her other guests on Brew Ha Ha. Also in the studio for today’s show are Ron Silberstein and Kim Sturdevant from Admiral Maltings. This is part two of their conversation. Part one is right here. On September 19, Admiral Maltings is putting on a promotion called “It’s the Malt!” Moonlight Brewing will be one of the breweries at the party on September 19. Moonlight Brewing Co. will be holding their 34th anniversary party, on Saturday, August 29. Brian Hunt founded Moonlight Brewing in 1992. They are releasing a new beer called Deep Cut Lager, with Deep Cut Cascade hops from Yakima Valley. They have DJs and live bands. It is family friendly and dog friendly. Herlinda first met Barry Bicker when he was at Lagunitas. She remembers bringing Moonlight and Lagunitas to a beer festival in Lithuania. The Moonlight beer never got out of customs, but the Lagunitas got through and it was a hit. They were so excited to get Lagunitas which they had only heard of at that time. Sweden was Lagunitas’ first export market. Herlinda met Ron when he was doing Thirsty Bear Beer in San Francisco. Unfortunately, the pandemic got it.  Change Is the Only Constant Herlinda has seen so many changes in the craft brewing business since she started doing this show over a decade ago. Firestone-Walker has taken over the brewing for Stong. She has seen Kim’s career progress too through several different breweries. Herlinda noticed a comment on Sayre Pietroski’s blog saying that things are going local. The guests agree. ++++++Visit Russian River Brewing Co. in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Check out their website and socials for up-to-date hours, menus, beers and more.++++++ As people drink lower ABV beers, lagers are more popular again. Hop farmers are also planting grain. Growing barley is a great rotator crop for farmers. Some people can make beer from hops and grain from the same farm. As the great imaginary pendulum of changing tastes swings slowly back and forth, lagers and subtle flavors are more popular again. ******Visit our sponsor Pro Chiller online for all the info about their new CO2-based Pro Green Solutions.****** Herlinda notices how the careers of her three guests have progressed. Barry sees more consolidation happening, but not for Moonlight. They believe that local is important and there is more quality and good, fresh products. There is great beer being brewed in a lot of places now. But now that people are used to having craft beer, the bar is set higher for quality. Also, the personal touch of local people is priceless. They taste a Moonlight beer called Working for Tips, which is flavored with the tips of redwood trees. Ron says it is the best non-hopped beer he has ever tasted. Brews have been flavored with spruce and juniper branches in Nordic countries. As people drink lower ABV beers, lagers are more popular again. Hop farmers are also planting grain. Growing barley is a great rotator crop for farmers. Some people can make beer from hops and grain from the same farm. As the great imaginary pendulum of changing tastes swings slowly back and forth, lagers and subtle flavors are more popular again.
