Think you know Genesee Brewing? Think again.

September 19, 2017

Jimmy had a great gig recently at Geva Theatre in Rochester, NY, so it was a no-brainer to stop in to Genesee Brewing. New York State's oldest brewery has been in Rochester since 1878 and boasts some incredible history. These days a part of the North American Breweries group, and you may know them for powerhouse flagships such as Genny Ale, Genny Light, and Genny Cream Ale; but did you know that Genesee has a pilot brewery, making some astonishingly tasty small batch beers?
And they have a terrific Brewmaster: Dean "Never Trust a Skinny Brewmaster" Jones takes us on a little tour!

TB(Wednesday): Harvest time at Damiani.

October 5, 2016

Earlier this year, while going thru some 'classic' footage, Mark said to Jimmy, "Hey - whatever happened to that really great stuff we got in the finger lakes when we visited Damiani Wine Cellars?" A spelunking adventure ensued, and Jimmy recovered this event, which we must share. As we've said in the past, it's always good to be a The Happy Hour Guy, but some days IT'S EVEN BETTER. Enjoy this episode, right out of the tank and barrel. CHEERS!
