Barrels in Snyder County; Season 3, Episode 89 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
They're making barrels in Snyder County! I think I told you this episode would be about some fun stuff we did and places we went in Philly and Rhode Island when we were celebrating our son Thomas's marriage to our new daughter-in-law, Shade Adekunle. You're probably still going to get some of that next episode, but after I posted up last episode, I got an email from US Barrel Cooperage in Snyder County. They were responding to a request for an interview, and it came together quickly. I toured th
Oktoberfest: It's The Best! Season 3, Episode 88 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
John Trogner returns! With his brother Chris! The most popular episode we've ever run is still Number 3, our first holiday episode, that featured a lengthy interview with Tröegs Independent Brewing co-founder, John Trogner. We brought him back, with the other brewery co-founder, his brother Chris Trogner. I talked to them about Oktoberfest beers, and lagers, and the trip to Germany they were about to leave for only two days later. I've got a bunch of stuff for you about Oktoberfest beer, the his
Lewisburg: Not Named For Me! Season 3, Episode 87 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It took me a while to find the right story for Lewisburg. Usually these town profiles center on a brewery, or a distillery, a chef, a candymaker. But this time, it's about a bookstore. I talked to Sarajane Snyder, the owner and inspiration at Mondragón Books, Lewisburg's community-supported bookstore. It's cozy, it's inspirational, it's necessary, it's...it has a tree in it. It has a cat. It has a fascinating selection of used books, LPs, zines, incense, and maps, and the reason it's there, in L
CAUGHT! The Elusive Pennsylvania Swankey!; S3, Episode 86 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An almost extinct Pennsylvania beer, brought back from the brink! The Pennsylvania Swankey is a beer I've heard about for 30 years, but I never go to taste one until last week, when I interviewed Taylor Strein of Rosko's Brew House and William Wingfield of John Ryan Brewery, two small and excellent brewpubs in Williamsport. They collaborated on a batch of A Night at the Rosk-bury, a rare example of this unique Pennsylvania farm brew. We'll talk about that, and their two breweries, about the brot
Sabatini's: The Best Beer Bar You've Never Heard Of; Season 3, Episode 85 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever heard of Sabatini's, in Exeter, PA? Sabatini's might be the best relatively unknown beer bar in the East. An unassuming pizzeria with a bar and bottleshop annex across the parking lot offers a ridiculously great tap selection, and around 3,000 different bottles of beer: import, domestic, craft, macro, micro, nano. It's a third generation family business, and I interviewed Lindo Sabatini. But it's not just the beer! Sabatini's has renowned pizza, an "upside-down" pizza with the chee
