Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Exploring the Beer Garden State with Brie Devlin
Q: Has there been a real shift in engagement from brewery owners and brewers since the reunification of the guild?
There is growing engagement and a sense of renaissance in New Jersey beer, with more breweries opening and a gradual rebuilding of trust between guild leadership and members, though not everyone is fully aligned yet as the industry continues to evolve.
Exploring the Beer Garden State with Brie Devlin
Q: What were the main issues the breweries were fighting for in New Jersey?
Beyond obvious licensing and operational hurdles, the guild sought clearer guidance on what breweries could and could not do, including tour requirements, reduced restrictions on events, extended off‑premise activities, and even basic amenities like TVs, which collectively would level the playing field with neighboring states.
When Veteran Brewers Collaborate Good Beer Happens
Q: What's the call to action to your fellow brewers when it comes to collaborations, whether or not they're for festivals that revolve around collaborations?
Collaborations don't have to be crazy; they can be about learning from friends, sharing tips, and showing customers that brewers are friends who work together to make better beer, emphasizing community and willingness to help others.
When Veteran Brewers Collaborate Good Beer Happens
Q: So tell me about one, how you two came together to make a beer this year, and then what the beer is.
They describe reconnecting at Second Dawn, deciding to collaborate for Collaboration Fest, and ideating a Mai Tai-inspired hazy IPA with pineapple, orange, and coconut, later refining it to evoke the Painkiller cocktail while maintaining beer balance.
A Conversation with The Guinness Brand Ambassador
Q: Outside of the company-owned locations, where would you encourage someone to have a meaningful pint of Guinness?
Choose places that maintain quality pours, proper two-part serving, and a strong Guinness culture, rather than chasing a single recommended venue; the emphasis is on staff training, proper glassware, and consistent service.
