Show Notes

Craft cocktails are all the rage. Andy Ferguson and Josh Krall are the owners of Bitter and Pour, a popular cocktail lounge in Rochester, Minnesota. Along with two other partners, they opened the downtown Rochester hot spot in 2018. They discuss the history of craft cocktails, a specialty of theirs, and why they've become so popular. They also talk about the importance of fresh ingredients and consistency. With 40 craft cocktails on their menu, Andy and Josh want to be innovators, not trend followers.
