Green Bench Brewing Co. In St. Pete, Florida

Craft beer. What is it?

According to the Brewer's Association, a craft brewer is "small, independent, and traditional." Sounds kinda vague, right? Well to get more into it, SMALL means "annual production of 6 million barrels of beer or less "; INDEPENDENT means "less than 25% of the craft brewery is owned or controlled (or equivalent economic interest) by an alcoholic beverage industry member that is not itself a craft brewer"; and TRADITIONAL means "a majority of its total beverage alcohol volume in beers whose flavor derives from traditional or innovative brewing ingredients and their fermentation".

Alright, so how does that translate to what's in your glass?

I'm A World of Beer #DrinkItIntern

Everything you've heard is true.

Out of 7,000 applicants for what was touted all over the news and social media as "the greatest internship ever," I was chosen as one of three (four, really) winners to spend the summer traveling, drinking beer, and getting paid for it! Last week I went to Tampa, Florida to meet the wonderful folks at WOB, as well as my fellow interns, who are all super talented and incredibly cool, nice people. It's crazy how fast things are moving, and after weeks of desperately wanting to come out on top of this thing, it's really happening!
