#146 Go Small Or Go Home with Jean-François Legentil & Jean-Pierre Gauthier (Echo Session Ales)

 

If you've been following our recent episodes, you may have noticed a bit of a trend towards low ABV beers happening in QC. This session trend has gotten so real that the newest brewery in Quebec exclusively makes session beers. Echo Session Ales, ran by TV guys JF and JP, are making some serious noise in La Belle Province with their first two canned offerings, a Witbier with whole oranges and a hazy session IPA. We got hold of the guys down at Boswell in Montreal to crush some of their beers (including their awesome Boswell collab) and find out why session beers are making so much noise. Note: The bar got extremely crowded and noisy towards the end of the podcast, it's still very clear and audible, it just gets a little distorted as the mic levels weren't adjusted as the ambient noise increased.

Beers Reviewed: Echo Session Ales Witbier; Boswell x Echo Session Ales Echo-Labo; Echo Session Ales Hazy Session IPA.
