Here are the amazing beers we will be featuring in this Show:
Noble Tendencies – Czech-Style Pilsner from The Lost Abbey
Nut Brown from AleSmith
Citra by the Sea – Hazy IPA from Burgeon

Live with New Motion Beverages & Embloden Beer Co.

If the modern beer era has taught us anything it’s that the public wants an incredible variety when they visit local breweries. Enter New Motion Beverages and Embolden Beer Co.

These two brands offer a wide variety of craft beer and other options, including kombucha, seltzer, and sparkling tea. Add to that brewing 32 North beers (former owners of the facility), and their plans for low and no alcohol options, and you have fast moving company from day one. We will have Andrew Kelly and Cody Morris, the brewing team, on to discuss the nuances of having all of this under one roof. We will be featuring the following beverages on The Show:

Original Sin – Bohemian Pilsner

Rose All Dae – Barrel Fermented Hard Seltzer

Pomegranate Unicorn – Hard Sparkling
Green Tea
