This week's episode focuses on the city that host Joel calls home, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Both guests bring plenty of experience to the table, as Chris Drosner (also known as the Wisconsin Beer Baron) has been writing and talking about Wisconsin beer for many years in a variety of formats and publications, while Kathy Flanigan has transitioned from her career in writing (that included local beer) to now pouring beers at a popular local beer bar! The trio discuss a variety of topics, including how the history and culture of Brew City has had an impact on the craft beer scene, why there's a hidden brewery incubator on the 2nd floor of a warehouse, and why a local brewery crowd sources beer recipes!  You can follow Chris on Twitter: @WIbeerbaron You can follow Kathy on Twitter: @katflanigan Brewery Travels is a podcast hosted by Joel Geier (aka Brewery Travels) that discusses a different city or region's craft beer scene in each episode. Joel interviews two local experts, ranging from beer writers and beer bloggers to people working in the industry and even like-minded brewery adventurers. Joel has visited over 700 breweries across 44 states plus Washington D.C. and has been able to make connections with many amazing individuals because of his travels. He is currently living on the road with his family, constantly “exploring more content and doing extensive research” (which just means visiting breweries and drinking beer)! The goal of Brewery Travels is to provide more information about craft beer scenes from around the country, as well as shine a light on some of the excellent individual breweries that call these cities home.  From Portland, Maine to San Diego, California. Austin, Texas to Duluth, Minnesota. The bright lights of New York City to the farmland of rural Iowa. Brewery Travels plans to run the gauntlet of locations, providing in-depth information on as many places as possible. With episodes coming out weekly on Thursdays, Brewery Travels is where you can get your fix if you enjoy a craft beer or traveling. Cheers!

Kathy Flanigan talks craft beers on Wisconsin's Morning News

with Kathy Flanigan and Dr. Nicola Siso http://www.grassrootstv.org/

This isn't our first podcast about beer and it probably won't be the last. The reason for the topic repetition is simple: Milwaukee brewing is continuing to grow, change, evolve, and improve. Recently, Milwaukee's reputation as "Brew City" has been bolstered with a steady string of new breweries, taproom expansions and relocations, limited bottle releases, increased acceptance from local consumers and area businesses alike, interesting collaborations, and unique events happening all around town. There's still work to be done and lots of room to grow, but Brew City is on the rise once again. It's impossible to keep tabs on everything happening in and around the realm of Milwaukee brewing, but Kathy Flanigan does one hell of a job trying to keep up. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter and author of Beer Lover's Wisconsin has been on the front lines of the city's (and state's) recent brewery boom and has spent years on the beer beat. She took time away from the newsroom—and the taproom—to meet host Tyler Maas at Company Brewing. They shared a few pints and some thoughts on the burgeoning beer scene in Milwaukee. Together, they talked about the rapid growth, the so-called "brewery bubble" that may or may not be on the verge of bursting, newcomers like Component and Vennture, how Milwaukee's breweries stack up against others in Wisconsin and throughout the Midwest, and some things happening during the upcoming Drink Brew City Week (July 26 to August 5). This episode is brought to you by Surly Brewing, a Minnesota-based brewery and the official beer of On The Record. Music used in this episode comes courtesy of Piles ("Blue Glue") and Soup Moat ("Navel Gaze").

The challenge facing Milwaukee and similar high-poverty cities goes beyond education, crime and jobs. An emerging network of public health and neuroscience researchers, community-minded foundations and law enforcement officials now believe the primary challenge facing our city is an epidemic of childhood trauma passed from one generation to another, one neighborhood to the next. Reporter John Schmid has a five part series coming out about the role trauma plays in shaping Milwaukee. He talks to editor Tom Koetting about his findings. We’ll also hear from business intern Rebecca Carballo on the ways women are attempting to shatter the glass ceiling in engineering. And beer reporter Kathy Flanigan breaks down the beer forecast for spring and summer.

Investigative reporter Gina Barton takes Journal Sentinel readers to Oregon this weekend as she examines a faith-based effort to help ex-offenders who are leaving prison. We'll also hear from Kathy Flanigan on a new trend at bars. And our JS on Politics team brings you the latest with Republican candidate Donald Trump's stop in Waukesha.
