Yinz ready for some hop talk? In lieu of our usual post hop selection episode, we are talkin' hops before the boys head out to the PNW later in September. DG family member and frequent guest Matt Pyecha sits in with us for this entire episode, which we kick off by talking through a dumb scenario Jaron thought up before then taking a Look Back and Look Ahead in the world of DG. The next segment is all hop talk including some specifics about this year's hop selection, a discussion about the secondary market, and much more. We finish up by playing a round of Name that Hop, followed by a quick Watch, Listen, Learn. Thanks for listening!
