Sit back - it's time to taste some beer!

HomeBrewCon steadily marches closer and on this episode we sit down with Jeremy Duffy of Isle  Brewers Guild about their unique way of running a brewery - and what we can expect when we (and hopefully you) party with them on the 26th! But before we get there, we check the beer news, a new book that's just been released, Denny's latest mistake (and our disagreement). Sit back and relax - we're on island time!

Denny and Paula have just returned from Belgium. What did he learn? What did he taste? (What did she drink that wasn't IPA?) How did the authorities let him back in? Tune in and find out that and all the beer news and brewing misadventures we've been getting up to in this week's episode!
