Land-grant University - Beers With The Brewers

We're gettin' FRESH on today's episode of Beers with the Brewers! Listen in as our head brewer, Dan, walks the team through this year's version of FRESH - an IPA brewed with wet, fresh-off-the-vine hops from our partners at the Michigan Hop Alliance.  FRESH incorporates Michigan Chinook & Bitter Gold hops that go from the vine to the mash tun in ~24 hours for an unmatched hop-bomb flavor. Look for FRESH in grocery stores and the Land-Grant Taproom while it lasts.

This weekend, we're celebrating Land-Grant's 8th Anniversary! One of the ways we're celebrating is with the return of six 'archived' Land-Grant recipes that will be very limited releases on draft at the anniversary party and in a variety six pack for carryout.  Listen as co-founders Adam and Walt sit down with Eric and our head brewer Dan to talk through: 1862 Ale Dry-Hopped Kölsch, Urban Sombrero Mexican Lager, Sour Hoppy Fun Time Dry-Hopped Sour Ale, Concentrate Hazy IPA, Son Of A Mudder American Brown Ale, and Batch 300 Double IPA and share some of their best memories around these beers.
