TAPS: C'est What Video Podcast

Just as the new TAPS magazine is slated to hit shelves throughout Canada, TAPS Media has released a new video podcast of the C'est What Blind Porter/Stout tasting that took place back in March.

Interviews were conducted with George Milbrandt (publican of C'est What), Cass Enright (Bar Towel founder), Mirella Amato (Taps contributor/Beerology), Bill George (LCBO/Certified beer judge) and some beer fans of all ages.

The response TAPS received after airing the Mill Street podcast was full of positive reviews and Mill Street is even incorporating it into their advertisements. This is something the media team plans to continue with the help and support of local breweries and publicans. A video podcast of March's Cameron's Cask night should be available soon as well.

To view the video, please visit www.tapsmedia.ca/podcast and become a subscriber. It's free!

On a side note, the new magazine features an extensive interview with Leanne Rhee of the LCBO. Ms. Rhee is the category manager of beer for the entire fleet of LCBO stores. The LCBO's summer release is also listed in the mag. Other articles include news from both the east and west coasts, dunkel and schwarzbier profiles, green breweries, ask the brewmaster, food and beer pairings, what's in a name (pub names) and more. Be sure to check out your local Chapters/Indigo in the next week.
Cheers!

Oh, and the outtakes at the end, I guess it was close to my tenth. That is not my day job.
