To learn more about all of these wonderful guests, tune in to this week’s Beer Sessions Radio! This episode has been brought to you by GreatBrewers.com. “We focus on flavors more than production. This beer [jalapeño saison] has fresh jalapeños, agave, candy sugar- things that if you were doing it on a brewery level are going to cost you a whole lot, but if you’re doing it on a one gallon scale, a little agave from your kitchen isn’t going to increase costs by that much.” — Erica Shea on Beer Sessions Radio “I think making craft beer at home influence is taking on more inspiration from food by using real ingredients.” — Stephen Valand on Beer Sessions Radio “Beer drinking is about community, and there’s a certain soulfulness that isn’t present in everything that you can do with your time.” — Christian DeBenedetti on Beer Sessions Radio
