In this episode, we sit down with brewer Austin Heisch of Rahr and Son’s Brewing Co. to discuss brewing and fermenting lager beer styles and the history of the style. Rahr and Son’s Brewing is the grandaddy of the local Fort Worth craft brewery scene and they led the way over the last decade by brewing a variety of multiple-award winning beers, including both lagers and ales.

Episode 6 recaps our experience at the 2015 Bluebonnet Brew Off that occurred March 20th and 21st. It includes a chat with Justin Crossley from The Brewing Network, who was there as the keynote speaker, then we’ll move onto a discussion we had with Barrett Tillman of Black Man Brewing, who has an innovative new series of dry sour yeast packets. After that, we’ll talk a little bit about the results of the awards ceremony. It was a great year for both TBI and the Cap and Hare Homebrew Club!
