This week on the show: we’re going to talk about beer and food pairing. Our guest is the legendary Garrett Oliver who is the Brewmaster of the Brooklyn Brewery, but more importantly wrote probably the most popular book about beer and food pairing, the Brewmaster’s Table.

He has been brewing craft beer since 1989 and is a veteran of over 1000 beer dinners and tastings in 16 countries. An original board member of Slow Food USA, he later went on to become a Councilor of Slow Food International.
