Beer Diaries Hops Out With Thirsty Planet Brewers

In the latest release of the new Beer Diaries series, host Greg Z. stops by the Thirsty Planet craft brewery out in southwest Austin to talk to brewers Brian Smittle and Jake Maddux. Learning is a thirsty business, so the guys hash out (hop out?) the Thirsty Planet story and philosophy over some signature brews, answering the big question: how can a craft brewery differentiate itself in a market as diverse as Austin's? (Partial answer: by brewing a collaboration with Franklin Barbecue—the Franklin Smoked Porter.)
