    Episode 165: Flights Across America Author Joel Geier
    Dec 13 2024

    Flights Across America author Joel Geier joins the Beers and Beards Podcast this week to discuss the upcoming release of his book which you can pre-order now.


    Of course we have to drink as well, and Joel drinks a dark lager from Good City Brewing called Afterglow. David drinks a beer from his advent calendar box in Other Half - Seeing Things. And Gary breaks out a new bourbon in Knob Creek Single Barrel.


    Craft beer tourism has gone mainstream. Whether planning entire vacations around beer or simply visiting breweries whenever they're in a new location (or even in their own city), people now frequently explore a place through its brewing scene. Joel has visited nearly 1,400 breweries across all fifty states, and this book is a compilation of his experiences. But it's more than just a travel guide. From planning a "beercation" to knowing the right questions to ask the staff upon arrival, Joel covers a variety of topics for those eager to dive into beer travel. Along the way, he shares insights into the beer scenes in cities and towns across the country. Nuggets of information on breweries and beers are woven together to paint a vivid picture of what it's like to visit each city for its breweries and overall beer culture. Flights Across America is an ode to Joel's love of breweries. Whether you're actively traveling the country to indulge in local beer or simply want to experience it from the comfort of your own home, this book is your ticket to the nation's vibrant craft beer scene.
