#148 Against The Grain with Kevin O'Connor (O'Connor Brewing)

 

For our second Virginia podcast in partnership with Visit Virginia, we headed down south to Norfolk to hang with one of the OGs of the region, Kevin O'Connor from O'Connor Brewing. As the second largest brewery in the state, O'Connor have set the tone for Virginia's beer scene over the last decade, and Kevin is one of the most respected brewers around. We hung out at their roomy taproom at their 24th St location to kick it with Kev and get real about the VA scene, some of the brewers he's groomed and crush some of his fine beer.

Beers Reviewed: O'Connor Proper Lager; O'Connor Good Vibes Gose; O'Connor Everybody Loves Parfait; O'Connor Spritzoli.
