S3E133: Brewers Connection and the State of Homebrewing

Arizona Beer Frontier

In this episode of Arizona Beer Frontier, Rob and Andrew sit down with Drew Tapolcai, owner of the recently closed Brewers Connection, an influential homebrew shop in the Arizona brewing community. Drew shares his experience working at Four Peaks Brewing Company and discusses the challenges of running a homebrew shop in today's economy. The Beer Frontierians talk about the history of Brewers Connection, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the homebrew industry, and the importance of supporting local homebrew shops.
