Episode 27 - Daryl Richardson and Phillip Deems of Three Odd Guys Brewing
"We can brew our own beer!"
We were delighted to join Daryl Richardson, and Phillip Deems of Three Odd Guys Brewing in the Beers & Bytes virtual studio to toss back a few while we regale in stories of the inception and evolution of Three Odd Guys Brewing. Sparked by a chance encounter because of a military background, "3OG" evolved into friends and family sharing unforgettable moments together; fantastic craft beers brewed by a tight-knit "Framily" are at its heart.
The Three Odd Guys team is not only passionate about brewing beer but is passionate about sharing the same type of extraordinary experiences they have had with new people. And some of their team are cybersecurity industry veterans to boot!
