We’ve taken you from Mexico to Japan recently on the Pubcast (with more international excursions to come), so we thought we’d take a moment to highlight beers and bars around the United States too!
In this “solo” bonus episode and quarterly update from Pubcast Worldwide, Chris pulls a bit of content from the archives featuring a cross-country audio bar crawl led by product marketing guru Andrew J. Coate (who – in addition to marketing – also drinks a lot). After meeting up for a drink at San Francisco’s Barebottle Brewing, we travel with Coate from Chicago, IL all the way down to Austin, TX with stops in between, while Chris provides some recent behind-the-scenes highlights from the show.
Drinking Destination:
Barebottle Brewing Co. – San Francisco, CA
A giant beerhall by San Francisco standards, Barebottle opened in 2016 out of a love of homebrewing. Located on the south side of the city in Bernal Heights, Barebottle features a range of ever-rotating, homebrew-inspired experimental beers, along with a strong list of core thirst-quenchers.
Show Notes:
- Chris takes us through a recent Pubcast-sponsored brewery crawl in Portland, OR, before we get to Coate’s epic cross-country bar crawl.
- From Chicago to Nashville to Boulder to Austin, Coate takes us on a trip through time to some of his favorite bars from his past and current homes…
