In this short episode we get a chance to sample three Idaho beers - Sweetgrass Pale Ale from Grand Teton Brewing, Mackinaw Red from McCall Brewing, and Longship IPA from Mad Swede Brewing - with Zach Popp who hails from the Gem State.

Rich in color, flavor and tradition, this strong Polish beer has been brewed according to the traditional recipe from 1881, with the Munich malt and special malts for caramel and color plus the highest quality aromatic hops. Everything together creates a unique combination of taste. Head up to Weiland's to grab one and join us for a beer worth drinking.

Quinn Bartlett, formerly of Belgian focused Buzzsaw Brewing and now at Hoster's Brewing, joins us to talk about brewing Belgian-style beers. Along the way we try some new offerings from Ommegang and revisit an old classic from North Coast Brewing, while discussing the challenges of selling these beers in the American market.
