Season 4 Episode 18 (07/13/24) - Icarus Gets a New Home
Dan takes the trip down to Icarus's new impressive home in Brick, NJ. His friends Jay Wilson and Steve Mags join him for a conversation with Jason Goldstein - owner and founder of Icarus. We crack open an old bottle and talk about the future of Icarus and the decision to move to the brand new facility. We talk about the plans for opening weekend, the importance of having a mix of styles, and talk about some the beers they've released over the past seven years.
Tom and Dan also talk about the big news in the craft beer world - J Wakefield announcing the closing of their taproom in Wynwood. Dan talks about the significance of the news to not only the Miami beer scene but the craft beer world as a whole. We also discuss why it happened, what's being planned before it closes, and Dan talks about why it has a special place in his heart.
Chase from Top Beer Drops talks about the top beers of the past week and we talk about the local releases that caught our eye. It's hot out so we hope some good beers can help cool you down.
