What started out as a very small operation in 2006, Half Acre has grown into one of the most recognizable breweries in Chicago with product demand across the nation. This month, Half Acre celebrates the 10th anniversary of Daisy Cutter, the dank, dry Pale Ale that put them on the map for beer drinkers everywhere. Co-founder Gabriel Magliaro tells us about his journey over the years, his memories of Daisy Cutter and how he hopes Daisy Cutter fans celebrate this milestone.
Laura Ulrich, Small Batch Brewer at Stone Brewing and President of the Pink Boots Society, sits with us at HopCulture’s Breaking Beeriers dinner at Ivan Ramen. She talks about her beer career, being a woman in the industry and the "education ceiling."
Matt Johnston and Bob Russell, Founders of Collective Arts Brewing, discuss the inspiration behind their grassroots brewery, which is dedicated to fusing brewing craft with the talents of emerging creatives.
