Episode description

In 2011, Chicago's Goose Island Brewing Co. sold to Anheuser-Busch InBev, kicking off a decade-long acquisition spree by the macro brewer... AND a snarling debate over the ethics of individual firms "selling out" the craft brewing "movement." John Laffler would go on to co-found Off Color Brewing just a couple of years later, but when news of the sale broke, he was heading up Goose Island's vaunted barrel-aging program, and he joins Taplines today to put us in the room for the moment craft beer's corporate cooption hit a whole new gear.
