This episode is a YouTube replay of the launch of a Beer Media Group collaboration: the Midwest Beer Show, featuring me and Dave Zalatoris of Beer In Front.

As proud members of the Beer Media Group, Dave and I teamed up to deliver a round‑up of the latest Midwest beer news: regional brewery openings, seasonal releases, and stylistic shifts that are defining craft beer right now.

We also pop open a few choice beers and riff on aroma, flavor profiles, mouthfeel, and what makes each one stand out.

Expect a laid‑back, conversational rhythm—just two beer lovers riffing off each other. Dave’s Chicago‑centric awareness and my feel of what is coming out of Ohio, and more specifically, the Cincinnati region, complement each other, creating a dynamic dialogue. But if you are in other states of the Midwest, we have you covered too, and if in other parts, we touch on some National news as well.

If you missed the original YouTube broadcast, now’s your chance to keep up with all the action here as well. But catching it live allows you to also be part of the conversation.

And if you did catch it, consider this your on‑demand souvenir: real‑time banter, insider tipoffs, and beer media camaraderie—all in one lively replay. Grab your favorite pint and let’s dive in. Cheers to good brews and better conversation!
