The Session | Shutdown Special Edition | Nico Freccia Apr 10, 2020

Show notes

In this special, and weird episode of The Session, we change formats to meet the demands of the current global pandemic crisis. Host Justin Crossley is back in the studio, but this time all by himself to try and make a little sense of what's happening, and how The Brewing Network intends to proceed as we all attempt to get through this. As part of the process, J interviews Nico Freccia, Co-Founder of 21st Amendment Brewery, to discuss lender forgiveness for breweries during the crisis.

Show notes

In light of the current shelter-in-place situation we find ourselves in here in the Bay Area, we decided to postpone this weeks Session with True Symmetry Brewing, and instead have cut together a few clips from past shows. We even have a current interview from Justin and our pals down at Hop Revolution in New Zealand! It's a great mix of old BN and current topics, and we hope you enjoy it. Sully and Teresa joined JP as he introduces these clips, recorded in his tiki room (hence the photo).
