Neat & Mixed from Hops & Spirits

Our latest Q&A is with Philip Brandes, founder and CEO of Bravus Non Alcoholic Craft Brewing. Philip talks about how he got into home brewing non-alcoholic beer, launching Bravus, how they make their beer, creating a barrel-aged non-alcoholic brew and more.

It's our Craft Beer Roundtable as GoodBeerHunting.com’s Bryan Roth, Master Cicerone Neil Witte, and Cicerone/Beertender Lindsay Hayes all join us. We hit on a variety of topics, including is seltzer really dying or are the reports wrong, celebrity back brand issues, biggest stories/trends of 2021 and the gift you’d like to give the craft beer world.

We go Beyond Kentucky for this Q&A with Paige and Ryne Iseminger, founders/creators of Freshie Tequila Seltzer. Freshie is the first (and only) organic, non-GMO, gluten free, sparkling tequila seltzer, sustainably farmed and distilled. The drink originated as a “hair of the dog” cocktail after a little too much fun on a trip to Mexico.

We go Beyond Kentucky as we talk with Josh Cameron, North American Brand Ambassador for Roe & Co Irish Whiskey. Roe & Co is a new contemporary blend named to honor the memory of a whiskey-maker whose distillery was in its time the largest in Ireland. George Roe & Co helped build the golden era of Irish whiskey in the 19th century.

On our first Q&A we talk with Scott Neil, Horse Soldier Bourbon’s Chief Operations Officer. Scott and his friends banded together after years of service to the nation to launch Horse Soldier Bourbon. Their dedication to serving others and a passion for adventure led them on this new quest to create an all-American, award-winning bourbon.
