    Love the Show
    Your show has been an amazing resource to gain insight on the industry. The sharing of information by the brewers and breweries has helped shaped my own brewing! There is just one thing—as someone who grew up in Central Washington, I have one small suggestion. Yakima is pronounced by locals as Yak-i-mah, not Yak-I-muh. So many people in the industry say Yak-I-muh, and for some stupid reason it drives me nuts. Anyway, thanks for all that you do for the industry and providing such a great show!
  • krabriter
    Slow down
    Love the pod but I have a small complaint, Jaime, slow down when you talk. Let the guest talk. Don’t try to ask questions like you are writing an editorial. It’s distracting and makes the interview hard to listen to.
  • DL_2402
    Highly recommended
    For anyone interested in the beer topic, newcomer or veteran, this is a great show and super informative, it will certainly put interesting people and places on your radar to check out.
  • USAMariano
    Great conversations and content
    Jaime, this is one of the beer craft beer podcasts out there. Keep going and stop reading the reviews. Ignore the trolls.
  • Mark from CO
    One of the Better Brewing Poscasts
    Overall pretty good, informative, and interesting content and guests. My one piece of feedback is that every episode starts with 10 or 20 minutes of the guest taking about they got into craft beer. This is almost always the same story (started out home brewing, blah blah) and not very interesting. Could be edited out.
  • Mr. Doctorfantastic
    Art and a big heart
    Great show! The guests are true artists in brewing, and I don’t know how he gets all of these special people from all sizes of breweries everywhere. the host really is also an artist at interviewing. He shows he cares about the people and their craft. But he is not afraid to dig deeper or kindly disagree. Reminds me what is great about the craft beer community, sitting down and geeking out about the details and wacky theories from simple to complex processes and ideas. All in the name of just making delicious beer. Thank you for this.
  • kickintheeye
    West coast Pilsner and lager show
    This was a great show to listen to. Highland Park brewery is my favorite brewery and I pick up beers from them a few times a month to take home. Firestone Pivo Pilsner has been one of my house beers for years and is fantastic. The propagator in Venice makes some fun hobby lagers. i’ll try to sample some of the beers from the Santa Cruz brewery that was on the show.
  • Johnny Mike
    Eighth State’s Abusive ways
    Sad that you never asked Cameron about his abusive tactics on Untappd, where he argues with users about 8th State ratings he views as “too low” (3.5/5.0) or the fact he kicks people out of 8th State’s FB group. He truly is an awful person in the Craft Beer community. With 82 minutes long, I expected at least one question around why he does this?
  • BrewViews Aaron
    Awesome craft beer podcast!
    I live the format of this podcast. There is a little bit of everything. I have learned so much about craft beer and craft beer culture from this show. Always look forward to the next episode. Great job!
  • Benjamin Mahan
    Brilliant
    Fantastic podcast about picking the brains of the best brewers here on this Earth. There’s just too many “you know?”s, you know?
  • Alexander Gates
    Fascinating In Depth Discussion
    This podcast is a must for any beer lover, especially for in depth talk on the processes and people. Host and magazine editor Jamie Bogner sits down with a single person and usually discusses their brewery or claim to fame in the beer world. Episodes are kept tight with specific questions and points. Ads are read live throughout.
  • lwesc1978
    A great podcast!!
    This podcast is perfect for someone looking to open a brewery. The various episodes have really opened my eyes to unconventional ideas. Just really enjoyable to hear the brewery’s experiences throughout their journeys.
  • The Sinister Brewer
    Eric Wallace interview
    I have always enjoyed this podcast. Even though I am not a commercial brewer but just a hobbyist homebrewer, I still find the interviews enlightening. I especially liked this interview with Eric Wallace. He made some very poignant points. While disturbing, we need to face these new realities and I thought he articulated it very well.
  • jokojolhkfgggg
    Solid. Excellent
    The only critique is that you need more new england brewers as quests. Please get Allagash already. Also get Brian from Mystic (though the closed up shop they were the best in Boston).
  • MS Coast Fan
    The voice..
    The host is great but his voice....
  • Angus3753
    Great podcast
    The content is terrific and really covers a wide range of topics from ingredients to brewing to business plans to marketing. Very useful for anyone thinking about the industry. One suggestion - try to record in quieter places. Sure, the sound of a brew house gives a nice background, but episode 89 was one I had to turn off. The kegs clanking non-stop in the background was too distracting.
  • Start yesterday
    Quality
    Thanks for the great interviews. Would love to hear even more variety in the topics discussed and the people interviewed.
  • LazerCatsFromHell
    Fantastic!
    It’s nice to have found a podcast that’s not so much home brewing focused!
  • josh 7 sounds
    Dope 💯🙌🏻😎
    Some of the best beer journalism right here.
  • Stands4
    Basics
    Suggesting finding a quiet room for your podcast recording. Listening to Ken Grossman podcast. The background crowd noise is distracting and interferes with listening quality.
  • Nick56///
    Love this podcast
    This is a high quality podcast with very interesting guests and compelling discussion
  • Dubster077
    Love it
    Fantastic podcast! I look forward to it every Friday. Diverse interviews with great brewers. Love the John “That’s a Great Question” Holl episodes, but the other guy is painful to listen to. Sounds like an angry muppet and it’s scary. However, his interview with the brewer from Neshaminy Creek was awesome! Get Jean from Tired Hands on here!!!
  • MSardina
    Informative, Industry-Focused Content
    John Holl and Jamie Bogner of Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine host relevant guests from some of the best beer-related outfits within the industry. The conversations cover a broad range of topics, but prove interesting and informative. A great listen for anyone in the industry, or for any better-beer enthusiast.
