How's aBOT we lighten things up?
Now for something completely different, Amanda reads some "Bot" stories, where an AI program creates its own scripts for famous TV shows, news, and even regular situations like flying on a plane. We hope you enjoy this nonsense as much as we enjoyed bringing it to you!
P.S. All credit for the bot stories goes to Keaton Patti, the hilarious and talented comedian who came up with these stories.
Episode 10: A Few of our Favorite Things
As we continue to survive the COVID-19 Pandemic, we thought we'd lighten the mood a little and share a few of our favorite memories of New Main Brewing.
Our next episode will be a Q&A show, so send us any questions you want us to answer to entreprenope@gmail.com
Episode 9.5 - What Else We Would Have Done Differently
We had a few additional thoughts after recording episode 9 that we wanted to share, and we discuss the audio circus that we added to the end. RIP Riley, our sweet boy.
Episode 9: State of Craft Beer
Amanda and I set aside a few minutes of our regularly scheduled quarantine program to chime in about the State of Craft Beer, both before and during a pandemic. We also reflect on what we would have done differently, knowing what we know now. Stay tuned to the end of the episode for a special message from Nitro, Deacon, and Riley.
Episode 8: Social Distancing
In light of even more quarantine suggestions and restrictions on group sizes, we highlight the final days of business and what's next for New Main. Spoiler alert, we gotta move out.
Episode 7: Beware the Ides of March
The morning of our last day of business, Amanda and David break down their various marketing and advertising strategies.
Episode 4: Served & Serving
Wouldn't you know it, we encountered another road block. In this episode, we go over our "legal battle" with one of our contractors. Buckle up, this episode is a bumpy ride.
Episode 6: Final Straws
This episode is a doozy. We share the sordid story of our failed negotiations with our landlord, and bring the running narrative to present day. Don't worry, this isn't the end of the podcast! We'll continue to bring you more content, interviews, and summaries of what we've learned throughout the whole experience. Please continue to listen, like, and share!

In this episode we discuss the second year and the momentum we finally started to gain when we started to serve our own beer on the new brew house.
Episode 3: Finally Open
We finally opened New Main Taphouse... now what? We go over the many lessons we learned on the fly, like taxes, expectations, and washing hands in two languages.
Episode 2: Finding Funding
After we found our location, our next step was to secure funding and get our business off the ground. Except that it didn't happen that easily or quickly.
Episode 1: Getting Started
We detail the very beginning of New Main Brewing, meeting friends and colleagues, learning more about brewing, and the steps that led us up to the decision to open a brewery.
Episode 0: intro
