This week we're in San Diego for the Craft Brewer's Conference, so we took some time to sit with Greg Koch from Stone Brewing Company, and Brandon Sieminski from Iron Fist Brewing Company to talk about what they will take from the CBC back to their brewhouse's. We enjoy this discussion of the CBC from the larger brewery vs smaller brewery perspective while enjoy a traditional favorite from San Diego, Stone's Pale Ale. This year , the CBC also hosted the World Beer Cup, so we also take a few minutes to talk with Luke Nicholas, the "god of Epic", to get an idea of the judging process in the World Cup and how all that works. Stephen is clearly hung over, Matt can't nail down his grammar, Brandon refuses to woo, and Greg's in a kilt! __ Support our Sponsors Beachwood BBQ - http://www.beachwoodbbq.com The Full Pint - http://www.thefullpint.com __ Follow us online New Brew Thursday – Twitter – twitter.com/newbrewthursday New Brew Thursday – Facebook – facebook.com/newbrewthursday Master Pairings – Twitter – twitter.com/masterpairings Master Pairings – Facebook – facebook.com/masterpairings Stephen – twitter.com/darthweef John – twitter.com/johnholzer Matt – twitter.com/SmallBatchBrew
