Episode 20 is here and we are pleased to announce our very first guest! On this episode, we have our good friend Elliott Johnson of DC's homegrown Soul Mega Brewing Company. We're known for cooking up beverages in the bando and Elliott is cooking up beverages "Worldwide" so this was a perfect fit for our podcast. Our drink is mixed with Soul Mega's Worldwide, an American Pale Ale and it will be sure to help our listeners Gravitate to the power of beer. Join us as we "tap in" and discuss what it takes to develop your own product from the ground up and the challenges of starting small with big plans.
