This episode is for ALL you Craft BEER lovers out there. And yes, I am even talking to you Craft Beer haters! Taylor Reynolds and Ann Wohlstadter are two amazing women that are passionate about their place in the Craft Beer Industry. Both Taylor and Ann work at Savannah River Brewing Company (SRBC) which is one of Augusta's major breweries. Taylor, who works the front of the house (and occasionally helps out in the back) found her way at SRBC via a rather untraditional route; Beer Yoga. Ann, stirred her way into the back of the house as a badass assistant brewer and a Level 2 Cicerone (there are roughly 4,200 Certified Cicerones in the world. ONLY 120 ARE WOMEN). A pretty impressive accomplishment to say the least. If you want a peak behind the curtain that is the Craft Beer Industry, or perhaps want to know what life is like working in a brewery, this episode is for you!Follow  SRBC's Socials Below!IG: https://www.instagram.com/savannahriverbrew/FB: https://www.facebook.com/SavannahRiverBrewTaylor's IG: https://www.instagram.com/yogawithtaylor/Ann's BLOG: https://www.facebook.com/Adventures-of-a-Modern-Alewife-109973557409672Are you loving ForTheNation Podcast?
