This week Joel dives into the beer scene in scenic Boise, Idaho with Matt Roth, host of the Hops Geek News podcast, and Rob Landerman, President of Woodland Empire Alecraft. Many topics are hit on during this episode, including Idaho’s strong hop and barley production, the sense of community within Boise’s breweries, and changes to the industry over the years.

Joel has visited over 700 breweries across 44 states plus Washington D.C. and has been able to make connections with many amazing individuals because of his travels. He is currently living on the road with his family, constantly “exploring more content and doing extensive research” (which just means visiting breweries and drinking beer)! The goal of Brewery Travels is to provide more information about craft beer scenes from around the country and shine a light on some of the excellent individual breweries that call these cities home.
From Portland, Maine to San Diego, California. Austin, Texas to Duluth, Minnesota. The bright lights of New York City to the farmland of rural Iowa. Brewery Travels plans to run the gauntlet of locations, providing in-depth information on as many places as possible. With episodes coming out weekly on Thursdays, Brewery Travels is where you can get your fix if you enjoy a craft beer or traveling. Cheers!
