Join host Shannon McMenamin on a long, strange trip through McMenamins' destiny-altering love of beer, art, music, history, and community. Opening the Barley Mill in 1983, helping pass legislation that forever changed Oregon's pub and dining culture, hiring Thursday Jane (who's still with the company 40 years later), and unearthing the Red Shed itself from a tangle of wild blackberry bushes –– it's all in episode one of The Red Shed Tapes.
