Thanks for checking out the May episode of Good, but not the Best... a Dancing Gnome podcast! We kick things off with another new review (we're on a roll!) before jumping straight into Look Back/Look Ahead. Andrew tells us about a DG "collaboration" with Yakima Chief Hops which leads into a wider discussion about alternative hop products (cryo, hop oils, etc.). We also talk about Pittsburgh hosting the NFL draft and the underwhelming turnout that was seen for local businesses. Next, we are joined by our guest, Rob Houston of the newly opened Balance Brewing Company. Rob tells us all about Balance, his path to opening a new brewery, his history in the industry and much more. We round out the episode with Watch, Listen, Learn. Thanks for listening!!
