E325: Clowning Around with Bircus Brewing

It's good to be back.  Did you miss us?  Brian's feeling all better and it was great to get back in the studio.

We're joined this week but the crazy crew from Bircus Brewing in Ludlow, KY.  FYI, it's pronounced "beer-cus."  Brand Acrobat Jilliam Francois, Sales Manager (fancy title pending) Matt Cremeans, and Brewmaster JD fill us in on the origins and future of their brewery.

Bircus is what you get when a Ringling Bros. clown opens a theater/circus and realizes all the money is made on concessions.  That's the short story of why Paul Miller opened his brewery.

If you visit the taproom for a brew, like maybe a Juggaloats IPA, you may see jugglers, stilt walkers, fire breathers, some good old fashioned wrestling... and brick oven pizzas.  It's always 3 rings of fun at Bircus.
