Episode 153: Evil Genius Beer (or Numbers of the Alphabet)

With Trevor Hayward & Garrett Williams at Evil Genius
Plus Brendan Sindell from House Beer

You knew it was only a matter of time before we came back to Evil Genius to get our podcast on. The impetus for our visit to the fine establishment in the Fishtown neighborhood of Philly this time was to discuss the brewery’s commitment to sustainability and use of 100% wind power through Inspire. Once we got that covered, and without Steph to keep us in line, we pretty much just had an awesome hang with Evil Genius owner and longtime friend of Beer Busters, Trevor Hayward. Joining us for a bit in the middle was brewery General Manager Garrett Williams. We drank a bit too much and bounced from random topic to goofy reference to dirty joke. Good times. Also in this episode, a phone interview with Brendan Sindell, CEO of House Beer in Venice Beach, CA. House Beer has “One Beer, Done Right,” a premium crafted lager. In Happy Fun Time, Wayne proctored a quiz on the environmental impact of beer – a relatively no-nonsense topic that still managed to turn into a cavalcade of shenanigans. Though Steph had to unfortunately sit out this episode (she’ll be back next time – we promise), the three of us dunces tried to stumble our way through a Know Your Beers segment all about hop lingo. Plus, beer. Obvs.
