The Rochester Real Beer Expo has a new curator this year in Rob Richenberg. Richenberg aims to narrow the focus of the festival to New York breweries.
That move comes at a time when the craft brewing industry has seen some turbulence, with both major players in the local scene and small breweries struggling to keep doors open and taps flowing.
This hour, guest host Gino Fanelli explores it all with his guests:
- Rob Richenberg, curator of the Rochester Real Beer Expo and owner/operator of BrewBuddies
- Paul Leone, executive director of the New York State Brewers Association
- Zachary Allard, head brewer/co-owner at Iron Tug Brewing
