Ivan and Damian Morales credit the border for helping build their craft beer business.

The founders of Cerveceria Insurgente in Tijuana say San Diego's booming craft beer scene ignited and continues to drive the growing craft beer scene south of the border.

On a new episode of "Only Here," a KPBS podcast about the border, a story about a craft beer scene shaped by both sides of the wall.
