Matt Van Wyk: More entertaining than Mancow

Right before we went to Denver, Matt recorded an episode on Waukegan radio for "The Joan Hammel and Friends" show.

Sept 28, 2007. We're Here for the Beer! Join Joan and her guests: Matt Van Wyk, Brewmaster at the Flossmoor Station Restaurant and Brewery, and on the phone from Denver Colorado, Julia Herz, Director of Craft Beer Marketing for the Brewers Association. They discuss the history of beer and the growth of the craft brewing industry and it's expanding future. Matt tells us of his journey from Teacher to award winning Brewmaster at the Flossmoor Station Restaurant and Brewery. Julia gives her take on the national scope of the craft brewing industry as well as those of home brewers. She also tells us about the upcoming Great American Beer Festival, to be held October 11-13 in Denver, Colorado. Check out the links to learn more about Matt and Flossmoor Station, the Great American Beer Festival, and the Illinois beer link for Chicagoland events.
