Vic's Basement Brewcast: Manfirkin Brewing Singer/Songwriter Showcase!

1/14/2024
Happy New Year and welcome to our first show of 2024. We have something a little different on tap for the new year. Manafirkin hosted a Singer/Songwriter showcase last month and Vic had the opportunity to interview several of the musicians before the show as well Todd Hunt, co owner of the brewery. So instead of hearing about yeast and mash tuns, you’ll hear about Fenders and Martins and sound systems. Thanks for listening hope you enjoy it!

Manafirkin Brewing - Vic's Basement Brewcast

8/21/2023
Vic and Richard are back in the basement, joined by Alexis as they host Donn, Lisa and Brandon from Manafirkin Brewing Company. It's always a wild 'firkin ride when this crew comes on the show, as we talk about the brewery expansion, canning, distribution and, of course, try some delicious Manfirkin beers. Manafirkin is a featured brewery at the Made in Jersey festival on September 30, so this show features a new edition of the world famous (well at least in our world) "So You Think You Can Jersey?" quiz show. We also get a little out of orbit and talk about UFO congressional hearings and for possibly the first time ever on a beer-centric podcast you will hear the words, "quantum entanglement"! The truth is out there.! Cheers and enjoy!
