Eric's doing things a little different for the show today. On this edition of What's Eric Eating Eric is joined by Brock Wagner of Saint Arnold Brewing Company and Asa Hanrahan of the Flying Saucer & Rodeo Goat for an extensive conversation about the current state of craft beer. The trio discuss, the early days of the craft beer explosion, whether there was a shift in interest for local craft brews to national brands, the rise of taprooms, the issues smaller breweries face nowadays, how they reach customers, why you can't rest on your laurels, what people are buying at Saint Arnold currently, the current pilsner competition happening in the market, the age of barrel aged beers going away, preparing for the World Cup, and much more!
