They talk Ballast Point circa 1997, Yellowtail, Sculpin becoming “the” IPA, and the wild ride over the years. Jeanne and Ryan explain the moving parts and nimble attitude necessary to get beer from a brewery into consumers’ fridges, and RG talks about his eventual decision to purchase and run his favorite dive bar, The High Dive. The team recommends beer pairings for The High Dive’s infamous burgers, and they talk about staying connected during this time.
