#117: Copper & How NOT To Be A Brewery
A bit of a mixed bag this week. We start talking about copper and then vent a bit about the basic blocking and tackling involved in running a brewery during the digital age.

#104: Cans!
Cans vs bottles, rainbows on labels, and packaging safety. Also why you don’t take James to your favorite brewery.

#76: Things We Love
