In this Thanksgiving-themed episode of the Buffalo Brews Podcast, Jason and Bri settle in for a laid-back conversation filled with holiday nostalgia, brewing excitement, and upcoming events in the Western New York craft beer scene.
They kick off with Thanksgiving traditions—old, new, and evolving—as Bri talks about ditching the classic dinner for a full-on Thanksgiving breakfast featuring a waffle bar and tater-tot casserole. From there, the conversation flows into memories of family gatherings, football, and how holiday customs shift over time.
The pair crack open “I Got Your Six,” the American IPA Jason helped brew at First Line Brewing. They dive into the beer’s veteran-crafted hop blend, its light citrus profile, and the special can artwork featuring the names of the veteran brewers involved. They also recap the First Line Veterans BBQ with Buffalo Bills long snapper Reid Ferguson, plus some favorite finds from local vendors like Q42 BBQ and I Got Your Six Candle Company.
Next, Jason and Bri reveal their next big brewing collaboration for the 2025 Buffalo CollaBEERation Festival, for a video-game-themed beer.
As the beers keep flowing—including Big Ditch’s new Turkey Trotter Blonde Ale—the hosts wander into running stories: the Buffalo Turkey Trot, Disney races, trail-running surprises, and their own race plans for 2025 (including Tunnels to Towers and the Buffalo Marathon 5K).
They wrap up with early holiday spirit, Deck the Halls plans, Buffalo weather gripes, and plenty of laughter as the season ramps up.
A cozy, beer-filled, holiday-ready episode perfect for Thanksgiving week.
