What You Missed On Beer Sessions Radio™: Two Roads Brewing Co.

Beer Sessions Radio™ host Jimmy Carbone is taking the show on the road for this Friday’s bonus episode from February 2015. Joining Jimmy is Phil Markowski, owner and brewmaster, owner of the largest brewery in Connecticut, Two Roads Brewing Co., along with team members Emily Sauter and John Kleinchester. Co-founded with Brad Hittle and Clem Pellani in 2011, Phil took over a vacant 100-year-old factory in Stratford, launching a full-scale brewery with a huge tasting room.

Phil discusses the making of some of his beers and how his book Farmhouse Ales impacted his beer making and the larger saison-making resurgence among brewers. There are probably 10 times more saisons being made in the U.S. than in the beer’s native Belgium. (Two Roads’ saison is Workers Comp)

Rep John Kleinchester breaks down his day and how he gets Two Roads to the NYC masses; Emily talks about the tasting room and operations at the brewery. And Jimmy does his best to encourage everyone to head on up (via MetroNorth or I95) and enjoy these beers fresh off the tap!
