Crispy Bois and Salty Snacks - Barrel to Bottle Blind Tastes Macro Lagers and Craft Macro Lagers

Pat, our resident Crispy Boi, has spent the last half decade extolling the virtues of Hamm’s. When he’s not drinking Hamm’s, he’s still drinking crispy lagers both macro and micro. Now he’s getting the chance to redeem himself after his Hamm’s-related failure in our Macro Lager Blind Tasting.
This week on Barrel to Bottle we’re blind tasting thirteen crispy bois, from big brewery lager classics to the new wave of craft crispies. And what better to pair with these crisp, refreshing beers than salty snacks, straight from your local Binny’s snack section.
