I sat down to have some pizza and a beer while in Virginia in 2017. The beer lineup in this pizza joint consisted of some of the usual East Coast suspects as well as a few from the West. However, I ended up with a local IPA. The beer was good. So good in fact, I asked the waitress about the brewery. Next thing I knew she took me upstairs to meet the owner/ brewers. There I discovered a story of friendship and collaboration. In a town so old the buildings seem to share their stories in whispers, this very small brewery is creating a community with good beer and a few stories of its own.
Meet Caleb and Paul. Together they began Alesation Brewing in 2016. They craft stories through the beer they brew from their tiny second-story nano brewery in Winchester. They have fused history, culture and wonderful flavors into a glass for every patron willing to sip and listen.
Good Beer Matters is a show about great beer, great friends and the experiences we create together. But, it’s also about better appreciation of the beer you enjoy. I believe better education leads to better enjoyment. So if you’re a beer and food professional, or even a beer enthusiast, then please subscribe to Good Beer Matters and leave a rating on iTunes.
After that, grab a beer, hang out with friends and let the world open up.
Thank you for listening.
Cheers
