Shelter Distilling - Mammoth Lakes, California - February 8, 2021
Shelter Distilling had the special distinction of being the only stop on my first season of the podcast where they make both beer and spirits. And they excel at both, as I found out in this interview with co-owners Karl Anderson and Jason Senio...

Visiting Worthy Brewing for me was like a pilgrimage, or a trip to Willy Wonka's factory. Or both. I had been drinking Worthy beers for a few years before I started this podcast, and their Lights Out Stout is one of my favorites. But when I wen...

Citizen 33 - Driggs, Idaho - January 7, 2021
Citizen 33 sits on State Route 33 in Idaho, a little way down the road from Grand Targhee, which might actually have the best skiing dollar-for-dollar of any resort in the country. It's less than half the price of Jackson Hole, and gets all the...
