Welcome to the German episode of Beer Sessions Radio™! We’re going international (and if you speak German, you’ll love this week’s episode) as we welcome Father Valentin from Klosterbrauerei Andechs, along with Lars Dalhaus (our happy translator) from St. Killians Importing and Sylvester Schneider from Zum Schneider in the East Village/Alphabet City.
Come hear about the journey to bring Andechs to the U.S. and why Germans don’t play around with flavors the way Americans do, preferring to create beer “Enjoyment for Body and Soul,” as the Andechs’ label proclaims.
On the American side, we have Dan Hitchcock and Nikki Cavanaugh from one of NY State’s youngest breweries, Rushing Duck. Hear about the brewery’s amazing growth and what beers they’re working on.
Plus, host Jimmy Carbone gets schooled in beer data terms by Girl’s Pint Out’s Jenn Litz, whose side job is writing for Craft Business Daily. So get the facts, just the facts, and nothing but the facts (nah, we’ll add in a lot of great beer) all on this week’s episode (listen here).
