We kick off May with our third Under the Influence Roundtable Series and our focus is craft beer. Panel includes: Neil Witte, Master Cicerone, and Owner/Founder of TapStar and Craft Quality Solutions; and Doug Veliky, chief strategy office for Revolution Brewing and founder of BeerCrunchers.com. Plus some email ramblings from Bryan Roth, editor and writer at GoodBeerHunting and director of the North American Guild of Beer Writers.

• Panel introduction 
• ONE TOUGH QUESTION: What’s the best way to enjoy ice cream? Cone, waffle cone, cup or milkshake?

• Small and independent beer production declined in 2020, is this a sign?
• Concept bars for craft beer (i.e. dog parks, Top Golf, etc.)
• Importance of packaging from the boxes to the cans (plus augmented reality coming??)
