This week in Beer is a Conversation we caught up with Gage Roads' Chief Operations Officer and Brew Chief, Aaron Heary. In this chat we discuss Aaron's path from brewer to COO and the recent major strategy overhaul of Gage Roads Brewing Co. Aaron Heary: Aaron Heary initially started his career in winemaking prior to working as a brewer with Little Creatures. After its sale, Aaron travelled extensively, further educating himself on the world of beer to kindle his knowledge and love of the craft. Aaron spent a year working with Steamworks Brewing Co. in Vancouver before serendipitously meeting up with the other founders of Gage Roads whilst abroad. Aaron later returned back to Western Australia to assist in establishing the brewery, initially taking the position of Head Brewer before taking on the roles of Brew Chief, COO and Vice President. Gage Roads' Little Dove New World Pale Ale was awarded Australian Champion Beer at the AIBA last year, in addition to overwhelming reception of their other brews both this year and last year.

Andy and David are at it again, talking comedy and great places to eat while on the road performing it. David starts us out this week initially in Colorado Springs, CO at Loonees Comedy Corner where he was a judge in the World Series of Comedy. Then he finally made it to a gig in Durango, CO with Jon Stringer where they performed at the Historic Strater Hotel, and later ate at Steamworks Brewing Co. where he enjoyed a fantastically spicy burger. Andy then takes us back across the country to Raleigh where he tried a new BBQ joint sone guys had been talking about called City Barbecue, and he was not disappointed when he ordered the "More Cowbell." David and Andy talk about how hilarious Greg Hahn is, and don't miss the story of Andy's first and probably last time golfing, oddly enough at the prestigious TPC Sugarloaf. Enjoy!
