New York City has a strong homebrewing scene! This week on Beer Sessions Radio, Jimmy Carbone is chatting with John Kleinchester of Beertography, as well as Jason Sahler and Kyler Serfass of the new Kings County Brewer's Collective. Tune in to hear the crew talk about Homebrew Alley VII, and find out who took awards home from the homebrewing competition. Why did Jason and Kyler decide to go the professional brewing route, and how much more room is there in New York City for new breweries? Later, Rick Lyke, founder of Pints 4 Prostates calls in to talk about connecting about prostate cancer over beer. Later, Jimmy revisits the devastation of Hurricane Sandy on the beer community with surprise caller Gene Muller of Flying Fish. Learn why Gene keeps Flying Fish's beers local, and hear about their benefit beer, "Forever Unloved Sandy". Thanks to Beer Session Radio's sponsor, GreatBrewers.com.
"There's tons of people in New York City, and more and more of them are wanting to drink craft beer." [6:15] -- Kyler Serfass on Beer Sessions Radio
"Beer's heavy, and it costs a lot of money to ship it. It puts out a lot of CO2... we want to keep it as local as we can." [42:30] -- Gene Muller on Beer Sessions Radio

Learn how to make mead on this week's episode of Beer Sessions Radio! Jimmy Carbone is joined in the studio by 2nd place Beer Drinker of the Year, Jen Schwertman! Also in the studio are Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergsø of Evil Twin Brewing, and Roger Repohl, beekeeper and mead homebrewer. Is mead wine? Or is it beer? Listen in to hear how Roger got involved in beekeeping, and how legal beekeeping has changed New York City. Michael Fairbrother of Moonlight Meadery calls in and talks about sweetness and dryness in mead, and why he has to source honey from all over the country to make mead in New Hampshire. How does season affect the flavor of honey? Hear about Michael's experience judging Homebrew Alley VII, Jeppe shares some strong Evil Twin brews, talks about the popularity of mead in Denmark, and talks about complex draft systems. Learn about the legality of homebrewing in Mississippi! This episode has been sponsored by GreatBrewers.com.
"I do small-batch harvesting of honey. During the honey season, I'll harvest it as it's ready. It's sort of like 'boutique' honey." [41:00] -- Roger Repohl on Beer Sessions Radio
