- Dan's admiration for Jeff's work.
- How Jeff got into beer writing.
- Dan's unfair assessment of the Portland flavor profile.
- Oregon being the most mature beer city in America.
- The closures of the mature Oregon breweries over the past two years.
- Is what's happening in the Oregon market going to happen in other beer cities?
- Thoughts on the rise of Great Notion Brewing.
- Portland's price per beer conditioning.
- Modern Times PDX talk.
- Jeff's place on Beer Twitter.
And much more!
