“What’s the most important piece of equipment that a brewery can have? …I’d say it’s the trademark because if something happens… people need to be able to recognize your beer on the tap.” [8:55]
“In the craft beer world, if a brewer has a problem with another, they call each other. And that’s what I recommend.” [28:45]
