Happy Monday, Thieves! We're back at it again today with a whip-smart upstart brewer from Pennsylvania named Joe Percoco. Perhaps you've  heard of his nomadic brewery, Søle Artisan Ales? Maybe you've even tried some of their cans? We sat down with Joe for a show recently and man is he one knowledgeable young brewer. Killing it. He'll be opening a new brick-and-mortar brewery soon.

Happy Monday, Thieves! One half of the STB crew is fresh off the plane from a quick weekend in Tampa, having celebrated Hunahpu's Day with Cigar City and about a million other breweries. It's gonna be a long week of recovery and we'll have those episodes up for you in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, we're celebrating a little milestone:  our 100th episdode! Hard to believe we've been doing this that long. For this episode we didn't invite any special guests or do anything too crazy, just decided to each bring one beer to blind on the other three. (Justin's beer was infected and exploded upon opening—an apt metaphor for something.) Tune in and let us know what you think!
