Colin Harvin is one of Casey’s better friends in the beer industry, and Casey and Colin’s time in Tacoma have nearly run parallel. Colin started out as a bartender at a bar just outside of Tacoma, and eventually worked for two local breweries before becoming a sales rep for 21st Amendment. Colin recently accepted another position within 21st Amendment which will cause him to move back to Georgia, where he’s from. He talks about his progression through the beer industry, beer culture in America’s southeastern region, the hardship and incidental benefit of having his wife deployed to the Middle East, and more. http://traffic.libsyn.com/nasorb/Colin_Harvin_Returns.mp3…

Casey’s wife returns to talk about her continued evolution as a beer drinker, beers she has liked recently, and to give one word and audible expression reactions to the mention of beer styles, and much of what Casey has to say. http://traffic.libsyn.com/nasorb/Caseys_Wife_Returns.mp3…

Aaron Kirby (of Offspeed Podcast) and Casey recorded from an undisclosed location in Seattle, a day after the Fangraphs meetup event. Aaron didn’t do much talking because Casey forgot his mic, but all four of these guys spent part of the evening at an independent professional wrestling event for which Aaron did the Ring announcing. They talk about beer, both its history in their lives and about the specific beers consumed during and prior to this podcast recording. Eno talked about his upbringing and how he became the man he is today. http://traffic.libsyn.com/nasorb/62_Offspeed_Beergraphs_Mashup.mp3 OMG OFFSPEED PODCAST HAS A SUBREDDIT, GO BE PART OF IT!
