In Episode 395, host Chris Sands sits down with Garrett Chambers (Co-owner) and Sam Waller (GM of the Columbia location) at the Cushwa Rad Pies Taproom in Columbia, MD. They discuss Cushwa Brewing's upcoming 9th Anniversary celebration, set for February 6th and 7th.
The conversation highlights a massive lineup of releases, including a unique whiskey called "Transmuted" (a distilled barleywine collaboration with McClintock Distilling) and a controversial but delicious "Black West Coast Pils". They also chat about the "hidden gem" status of the Columbia location's whiskey program and share laughs over Garrett’s pet peeve: customers asking to fill 5-gallon "party balls".

We're back at Olde Mother Brewing with founder Keith Marcoux to celebrate their 10th anniversary, even if we are technically a couple of months late. Keith was our very first guest on this podcast, and he’s been on pretty much every year since, so it’s only right that we share some big news with him.
In this episode, we officially announce that Uncapped will end this year; We’ve decided to stop at the 10-year mark this coming October.
But don't worry, we didn't get too sappy. We spent plenty of time covering:
• The "Dummy Tax": The expensive lessons learned over a decade of entrepreneurship.
• New Ventures: Keith’s plans for Charlie Wells Distilling Company, a new distillery and restaurant coming to New Market (featuring sandwiches named after his kids).
• Throwback Stories: That time they hid the register cash in the microwave because they didn't have a safe.
• Truck Talk: A very long, unplanned tangent about my love for old trucks versus Chris’s new Bronco and the joys of going to the dump.
We also discuss the new look for core beers like Hank and Impressionist and reflect on how much the industry, and our lives, have changed since we started.
Cheers to 10 years, and let’s make this final year count!

For Episode 393 I caught up with Keith Kohr at Waredaca Brewing Company in Laytonsville, MD as they celebrate their incredible 10th Anniversary!
The farm is ready for winter with their awesome new, heated, all-weather, reservable pavilion (it holds up to 100!).
The main event is the Waredecade 10th Anniversary Party this Saturday, December 6th! Tickets ($65) include three beers, catered food, a custom glass, and a t-shirt.
They are dropping some massive beers:
• Waredecade (9% Triple IPA, their biggest hopped beer ever).
• Bonanza (14% Sagamore rye whiskey barrel-aged stout with cinnamon and ancho chilis).
• Geedie (9% Belgian Triple), which won gold for Maryland’s best Belgian beer.
A tattoo artist from Damascus Tattoo will be there offering flash tattoos, and the brewery is paying for Waredaca branded designs!.
If you can’t make the ticketed party, join them for Poor House Trivia Friday, December 5th, or come watch the Ravens vs. Steelers game with sound on the huge screen in the heated pavilion Sunday!
No reservations required for Thursday, Friday, or Sunday.
Huge shoutout to brewer Zach Lloyd, who’s been there almost 10 years (and is currently building a Christmas tree out of kegs!).
Come out and support 10 years of great local beer! Find ticket links on Waredaca’s social media. Cheers! 🍻

In this episode I interviewed Adam Frey, owner of Frey's Brewing Company, a farm brewery and winery and part of a larger 2500 acre farm. Adam discusses several significant changes and initiatives at the farm, including a 33-acre wetlands and stream restoration project designed to mitigate flood damage, reduce erosion, and promote wildlife diversity. He also highlights their unique beginner's off-road course, which utilizes portions of the farm for recreational driving experiences. Additionally, Frey touches upon the challenges of modern farming, the shift in their business model from solely brewing to including wine, and the broader regional issues concerning proposed transmission lines and their potential impact on local businesses and the environment.
