Episode #23: Link Up | Foam Brewers with Robert Grim + Jonathan Farmer
Bonus drop! The fourth Link Up series saw the brewery collaborations expand south of the border, and what a way to launch in the US with Burlington, VT's Foam Brewers! Co-Founders Bob and Jon joined Tiff and Cee for an incredibly insightful chat about the state of diversity in Vermont, how breweries can deepen their connection to the community around them, their work with Pink Boots, what they've learned from their conversations surrounding Link Up and how they're putting those ideas into action. They crushed Foam's incredible 7% IPA, which boasts Champlain Valley Hops' Cascade, Citra and Sabro hops - it's juicy and citrusy with elements of grass, pine and marzipan. And that's a wrap for Series 4! A heartfelt thank you goes out to all the breweries who participated, everyone who supported and to our newest program applicants. See y'all for Series 5 in Spring 2022!
About the Link Up season:
We're back with a brand new season of BAOS Podcast, and this one is something very special and very close to us. We'll be focusing this entire season on Link Up, a non-profit started by the good folks behind Microbrasserie 5e Baron in Aylmer, QC and Tiffany and Cee here at BAOS and High Season Co. Our aim with this program is to help BIPOC from underrepresented communities learn about and enter the craft beer industry in essentially any area they wish - from a brewing apprentice to taking the Cicerone course for front-of-house opportunities, from hop farming to the yeast lab, from beer media to design and photography, we're here to help diversify an industry that is in dire need of it.
