Here we go, this is the first Questions of Note for 2013. The victem for this installment is Marc Buttera from O'so Brewing Company from Plover, Wisconsin. They did something I find great when getting to know a new brewery; they made some virtual tours of the brewery so we can see the magic.
And now for the questions...
1.
What was the beer moment, when you knew
you wanted to become involved with the craft beer renaissance?
The day I
brewed my first batch of Home brew back in 1995.
2. If you could have any beer in your hand
right now, what would it be?
Hopdinger, it is a great all around beer, a go to beer.
3. Can you describe your beer life in a
song lyric/title? If so what would you
choose?
It would be a Greatful Dead song... Roll away the dew...
4. Do you have a steady beer, or do you
like to "play the field?"
I play the field, Variety is the spice of life (Don't tell my
wife!)
5. Crowded smoky bar or back porch
watching the clouds float across the sky?
Porch for sure, hate smoky bars!
And
the lame one…
Who
put the bomp in the bomp-sha bomp-sha bomp?
You must of.
You must of.
I LOVE the virtual tour. It really gives you a sense of who they are and their passion for their product. The interview questions are a hoot and the answers are so fun to read. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is simple things like this tour that really helps the outside world get to know a company.
DeleteI only watched the first video, but it was pretty cool! Marc seems like quite a character, and your questions in the interview really helped to bring that out. I am going to have to ask my husband if he knows about the hopdinger. I will have to check out his site. Is beer able to be shipped???
ReplyDeleteFrom what I understand it is possible to ship alcohol through UPS or Fed Ex but it is illegal to ship through the postal service.
DeleteAh yes, variety is the spice of life :)
ReplyDeleteThumbs up on including the video!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun way to discover a company! I love the virtual tour videos. Yikes, I didn't realize how much goes into making a scrumptious beer! And this is a small brewery, woohooo! A friend of mine makes wine in his garage. It's a lot let complicated... Love the questions. Great look into the person behind the product. Thanks for a fun and educational post :-)
