Yes folks, it’s true, The Beer Diaries is about to be revealed! We have partnered with the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema to show three episodes of The Beer Diaries @7pm on January 30th. Click here for the Alamo Drafthouse show page, and here to go right to the ticket purchase page.
Don’t worry if your favorite breweries aren’t there; this is the first in a series of special presentations of The Beer Diaries at the Alamo Drafthouse where we’ll running episodes on ALL of the breweries/brewpubs in Austin.
The brewers featured in the episodes (Thirsty Planet and Twisted X) will be there, and they are bringing some interesting beers for you to taste.
Here are some shots from the episodes:
Our very first shoot was at Thirsty Planet Brewing Company. Jake and Brian were incredibly accommodating as we went about learning to ropes and tried our first behind the scenes interview!
Greg talking to Jake Maddux of Thirsty Planet.
Greg talking to Aaron Franklin of Franklin Barbecue.
From this scene at Franklin Barbecue you might wonder how fine, Texas barbecue relates to beer and during this interview with Aaron Franklin you’ll discover that secret. Perhaps it has something to do with Franklin Smoked Porter? (That’s not Aaron in the picture, but instead Dan, one of our camera operators.)
Our final episode takes place at Twisted X Brewing Company. We hang out with Jim and Shane and discuss tequila (and beer)! They’re building a new, larger brewery so this interview will be a nice installment in, “where they started,” and we’ll visit them in their new brewery at some point in the future for a follow-up.
That’s the summary of this first event. Come join, share a few beers, and enjoy watching The Beer Diaries!
