Episode 25 – Finding a Place and Embracing Technology

The introduction of a new calendar comes with a lot of promise. A blank slate to fill in with projects and goals. Maybe it means revamping a tap room or a recipe. Perhaps it’s finally signing the paperwork on new equipment, new space, or taking the first steps to open your own brewery.

Whatever the case, this episode is about making the right moves, finding a place in the brewing industry that suits your self and family, and learning a bit more about tools to help you get the work done – pandemic or not.

For our monthly nano brewery profile we’re talking with Raven and Travis Kocurek of https://houndsongbrewing.com/ in Texas.

Then we’ll do a technology check in with Clayton Kammerer, the Senior Sales Consultant at https://www.arryved.com/ .
