A Podcast & A Beer – Eaters Digest

The October podcast is Eaters Digest. A breezy food news and trends podcast from the Eater brand of websites that stretch across the country. The pod is hosted by Eater Editor-in-Chief Amanda Kludt and Producer Daniel Geneen and covers topics ranging from natural (orange) wine, to restaurant trends to babies in bars. Each show goes by quickly and though the hosts skew towards a younger generation, I find it refreshing to hear about items outside my little bubble even if they do not come down hard on hard seltzer.

I would suggest, since they do talk wine and cocktails a bit that you find say a Rosalie from Firestone Walker or a Nitro White Russian from Left Hand to pair with the podcast.

In the Tap Lines for October
