This week, Beer Sessions Radio welcomes back Good Word Brewing’s Todd DiMatteo and the author of “The Craft Brewery Cookbook”, John Holl. The gang will talk beer and food in all the ways that you can, accompanied by all the trivia stories that Jimmy can come up with.

The episode starts with an introduction for John and his latest cookbook, which is an exciting collection of recipes from brew pubs all around the country. He will also tell us about the experimental nature of beer and food pairings, as well as his travel to Todd’s cozy tap room in Duluth. And that’s when Todd will chime in with his thoughts on John and the cookbook, before our writer goes back to raving over the acoustics at Good Word. The gang then moves on to talking about All About Beer, where John just took over as editor, and their intention to cover all things important to beer pros and drinkers alike. 

Last but not least, Todd will tell us more about his upcoming festival Les Bon and the beer dinners included in it, before Jimmy shares his exclusive veal brisket carpaccio story. Todd also talks a bit more about his next Little Beer fest on April 15, 2023, before we discuss John’s old book and approach to exploring the world of food and beer that definitely does not involve the tap. Grab your headphones and take over with better beer trivias than Jimmy’s right now!
