Episode 149 of the Taproom Podcast with host Mike features Enrique Leveron and Miranda Gasca of Cerveceria del Pueblo and Tap Truck LA. The conversation traces their path from homebrewing to running a brewery and two vintage mobile tap trucks, covering brew days, equipment, recipe highlights (including a spicy guava–pineapple sour), and what it takes to turn a passion into a business.
They also discuss collaborations, the local brewing community, challenges of draft systems and kegging, event work (margaritas, kombucha mocktails, NA options), and their nonprofit outreach—like serving hot chocolate on Skid Row. Listeners will hear practical brewing and event tips, stories about memorable brew days, and personal reflections on perseverance, creativity, and supporting community through beer.
