Description

Learn about Eagle Park Brewing Company’s explosive growth, how brewing is like making music, and what’s up with THC seltzers.


01:45 Beer Myth: Is it bad to have a beer after a workout? Learn the truth behind the idea that beer hampers your fitness efforts so you know what you should (or shouldn’t) reach for in your fridge after you get home from the gym.


03:45 Eagle Park Brewing Interview: Jake Schinker, the brewery’s brand director and co-founder, discusses the intersection of brewing and music, revealing the origins of Eagle Park Brewing, the parallels between the creative processes in music and brewing, and how passion has transformed their venture into a successful enterprise. He discusses the absurd amount of time brewers spend cleaning and sanitizing their equipment, the importance of a strong foundation in experimenting with creating new flavors, and some of the massive equipment being used to brew massive batches of craft beer. Plus: exciting expansion plans, a behind-the-scenes look at their lager program, and the balance of respecting heritage while embracing the future.


The conversation touches on various beer styles, including IPAs, sours, and traditional European lagers. Listeners can look forward to learning about the intricate process of brewing beers with unique ingredients like cream of coconut and get an inside look at one of their newer offerings: THC seltzers.


40:34 Beer Behavior: Jake delves into the rapidly growing trend of THC-infused seltzers within the beer industry and the unique challenges that come with brewing beverages that blend THC with seltzer. He discusses the nuances of working with hemp-derived THC, how it’s legally distinct from marijuana-derived THC, and the strategic decision-making that led Eagle Park to innovate with their THC Alto Series despite varying state cannabis laws. He also explains why he doesn’t serve THC seltzers at his bar, since it could lead some consumers to have a bad time.
