Rock-N-Brews
A behind the scenes look at what happens at our brewery. Customer stories, fun facts and all types of shenanigans
Episodes
Beer isn’t just a drink. It’s shaped music, movies… and sometimes even crime. This is the story of how one beer turned rock stars into smugglers and became the star of a Hollywood chase.
Pint Sized History is a new series interspersed between full episodes of Rock-N-Brews. Fun little stories that have some pretty fun twists. They don't take much time, but they inspire curiosity and sometimes wonder over this liquid we like to dri...
We’re back after a looooooong time. Sorry folks.

- My Dad send me back Cherry Chouffe, and amazingly crisp cherry beer which is a whopping 8% Imported by Duvel ...
In part two Thomas and Jon talk about tipping etiquette vs (in)convenience fees. Georgia Beer Day happened and led to yet another “Jon’s gone and hell breaks loose” story. Jon realizes that he’s not a good trainer. Jon and Thomas are Social Media Influencers. And a conspiracy neither of us remembers putting into the show notes.
This is part 1 of 2 - the recording went almost 2 hours so we split it up.
This week Jon and Thomas catch up after a long break due to work schedules.

Back from a holiday break, Jon and Thomas try Jai Alai Double IPA and it's pretty damn good. We talk about New Years Eve and what happened at midnight if you were here, you know.
We actually got a couple comments from listeners to talk about - one of which was related to a past episode and one question was related to the hardest beer I've ever brewed.
Thomas gets stiffed on a tip after pretty much being someone's bitch all night,...
Christmas Episode! [*Extra Explicit and Crude*]
In this episode all 4 of us (Jon, Thomas, Keri and Bekah) sit down to drink, laugh and recall various stories and shenanigans from the past month.
We kick off the episode by tasting more moonshine that Curtis brought us - Dr. Dum Dum's Strawberry and Blackberry. We hit some Christmas Party news, Thomas talks to Santa, we talk about a game Jon wrote back in high school, Keri's obsess...

We talk about Thanksgiving adventures, the game bookshelf, Jon goes on a rant, some listener feedback about the kitchen, of course Distributor crap and Jimmy Buffet.
This week Jon and Thomas get some new podcasting equipment thanks to Jon's copious amount of Amazon points. A super drunk customer makes an appearance, Jon thinks Mickey Mouse is a classic rock singer from the 70's and Thomas thinks there's cannibals in our National Forests and Parks.
This week Jon and Thomas try out Kentucky Vanilla Barrel Cream brought to us by friends of the show Keith and Michael. We have some corrections from the last episode because we make stuff up and occasionally that stuff is wrong. Jon shares a near death experience, Thomas confides in us about this weekend's Draft Kings experience and we almost had to call the cops for the first time ever. But we didn't, because mama didn't raise n...
In this special episode, the ladies take over and talk about life at the brewery. Interestingly they take a different attack and look the the bright side of things :). They talk about the beginnings of their friendship, how Trax came about and the progression of the taproom construction. Keri tells a story about her grandpa that may bring a tear to your eye and Bekah talks about how we go to a lot of concerts and why that frustr...

Listen to the end to hear about upcoming events for November. It's packed!
The mics are still causing issues, SORRY!!!
Thomas and I got a late start on the Podcast this week.
In this episode we talk about how people treat my brewery and other people’s property. We hit on a fun fact about Russia, Jon has a high school flashback, the absolute hell week we had here and Thomas’ poor deep freezer (FYI - we didn’t drop it out of the back of the truck)
Jon and Thomas taste some new beer, address a new (to us) listener conspiracy, recap our time in Macon for the Beerfest and Jon STILL can't math. We wrap the show with a joke from Carter, my 7 year old grandson #squirrel
In this episode we talk about conspiracies, how awesome our customers are, we drop a sneak peak at a demo song for a local musician, dig up some old bands, go fishing and try to count.
We kick off this new podcast with some amazing customer stories. Thomas brings a beer and a story from the weekend. Jon gets the recognition he deserves for his amazing taste in music, we transport a grill and it doesn't turn out well.
