The Session: Family Business Beer Co.
Nate Seale, head brewer at Family Business Beer Co., joins The Session to chat about the Texas craft beer scene, how to make his own beers stand out in an over-saturate market, and how having an actor as the owner of the brewery presents it\'s own new set of challenges. Family Business Beer Co. is owned by Jenson Ackles, of \"Supernatural\" fame, and has become somewhat of a pilgrimage for many fans of the TV show, craft beer knowledge aside.

Vito Delucci took Silver in Australian Sparkling Ale, and Sean Monahan won Bronze in American Barleywine - both were in studio for this homebrew-centric show.

The Session: Be Easy Brewing
Craft Beer in Japan is on the rise, and today we talk to an expat who is helping that rise: Gareth Burns of Be Easy Brewing. Our old buddy Ry Beville, of the Japan Beer Times, brought Gareth and his brewer Masahiro - along with their \"everything\" gal Chika, all the way out from Northern Japan just for this show! Gareth was stationed in Japan and fell in love with not only his surroundings, but the craft beer scene there, and decided to make that his new career path. He brought along two beers for us to try - a Czech Pils and a Pale Ale - making JP and Tasty the first two folks in the US to try beer from Be Easy. Pretty cool! We also talked (and tasted) some regional Sake! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
