Brew Study
Are you a craft beer fanatic who wants to get up-close-and-personal with Chicago’s leading brewers and beer experts? Or maybe you are intrigued by craft beer but never know what to order when your friends bring you to a brewery? Whether you are curious what all the hype is about, want to feel confident about expanding your beer palate, or are a self-proclaimed beer nerd, this podcast is for you!Welcome to Brew Study, a culture podcast highlighting the Chicago craft beer scene. I bring head brewers and other beer experts on the show to share their stories, passions, and fun facts, as well as teach us about a featured style of beer each week. From them we learn breweries are much more than places to drink great beer. Whether they are involved and charitable in their communities, hubs for organized social activities, or a home for hounds, each brewery has its own unique mission and style. Every few episodes, I invite an “emerging craft beer drinker” on a "Big Beer Adventure" to document their first experiences with new styles of craft beer. I hope you enjoy listening to this podcast as much as I enjoyed making it. Cheers! Written and produced by Karlee SolokoMusic and sound production by Andrea Soloko
