On this episode, I visit Shakopee Brewhall in Shakopee, Minnesota, to chat with Ben Salyards (head brewer) and Maddie Sullwold (Event and Marketing Manager).  I had a great time chatting about how Maddie thoughtfully puts together dynamic programming to create a third space for the Shakopee locals.  Ben, being a veteran of the Minnesota craft beer industry, is always great to chat with because of his thoughtful and measured perspective on all things craft beer.  This episode is proudly sponsored by Arbeiter Brewing, a fantastic brewery serving great beer made and poured by wonderful people.  If you liked the show and want to support the A One Pint Stand, consider joining our Patreon.  There is some great bonus content that our Patreon supporters enjoy that give a fun peek behind the scenes.
