Episode 001 - Badger State Brewing - Green Bay, WI
Cameron & Jonathan have a couple beers with our first guest, Andrew Fabry, President & Co-Founder of Badger State Brewing Company in Green Bay, WI.
Andrew gives us a glimpse into the sweaty early days of Badger State when Sam, Mike, and Andrew were brewing their first batch of beer on a sweltering hot summer day, and then moving to their first professional brewing space in a former warehouse locker room.
We talk about how the three Badger State guys found their passion in beer so much so they quit their other jobs to pursue this dream.
Badger State may not grow the prettiest hops on-site, but they know how to use professionally-grown ones. Andrew talks about IPAs being his favorite beer style because they’re always evolving as new hops are cultivated.
