Episode 601 – Miskatonic Brewing (with Cory Davidson and Mik Dempsey)
Miskatonic has been a western suburban outpost for great beer with an extremely loyal following for a decade now – and it’s due time they get the recognition they deserve. We sit down in Darien with head brewer Cory Davidson and production brewer Mik Dempsey to talk all things Miskatonic, including how they approach brewing such a wide variety of styles with laser-like focus, how branding updates help reflect the beers themselves, what obscure styles they’d like to brew one day, and how they find collaboration partners in both the brewing and music worlds. Also, we talk about contract brewing through their full production brewery, making seltzers for the first time, and both Cory and Mik’s picks for their essential Chicagoland six packs.
