In this episode we\\u2019re taking a trip to Des Moines, Iowa, where Whitney and Scott Selix share with us stories of their hospitality careers and what it means to create an innovative tap list at Lua Brewing. It\\u2019s that latter piece that caught my eye when I first came across Lua, with a lineup that includes traditional German and English beers alongside various hazy IPAs and slushee Sours.

If like me, you may not know a lot about the brewing scene in Iowa, and Whitney and Scott offer context of being part of a growing beer culture where you can introduce a drinker to new styles with something like an English Mild, but you also have to provide access to something fun and different\\u2014like a \\u201cBlue Razz Electrolyte Sour\\u201d that as it turns out, wasn\\u2019t the first take in Des Moines on that collection of flavors and ideas.

As partners at Lua and in life, let\\u2019s get to know a little more about this brewery and what it means for Whitney and Scott to make something special in a burgeoning market.

This is Lua Brewing\\u2019s Whitney Selix, president and co-founder, and Scott Selix, director of operations and co-founder.
