Coming Up from Beer Guys Radio

Burnt Hickory Brewery‘s Scott Hedeen and Heddy Proctor joined us this week and things will never be the same. Hedeen has opinions, on everything. We talk a bit about his beer and brewery, but then he’s off in another direction and we just try our best to keep up.

Next week we’re talking with Tallahassee, Florida’s DEEP Brewing, a relative newcomer to craft beer that’s made a quick impression on their fans. We’ll get the scoop from owner and head brewer Ryan Lapete.
