At Market Brewing Company in Newmarket, the past meets the pint in the latest episode of The T&T Podcast with Chris and Chuck. Joined by co-owner Piers Simpkin, the hosts dive into the brewery's origins, community spirit, and its unexpected role as a modern-day gathering place rooted in historical mischief. From bootleggers with tinted shot glasses to a legendary speakeasy on Piggies Lane run by the savvy Lisa, this episode uncorks some of Newmarket's juiciest prohibition-era secrets. With laughs, local lore, and a lineup of crowd-pleasing drinks—from crisp seltzers to small-batch wines—it's a spirited celebration of how far we've come and how cleverly we got here.
