Hop Nation USA - A Craft Beer Podcast
Arts:Food
This week Adam and Steve are joined by returning friend of the show Jon Dispenza. Jon shares his experiences working at the recently closed Tru Colors brewery. The brewery hired active and former gang members as a way to give them alternative options not available to them. We talk about the good that came from the brewery and some of the struggles leading to its downfall. Then we have a bit fun playing a game of Totally Not Pardon The Interruption's Word and learn about Pittsburgh Potty lore.
