What’s up, Brewsers? This week on Brewsing Banter Podcast, we’re chopping it up with Terry Rostic from Black Calder Brewing, Michigan’s first Black-owned beer brewery.

Terry takes us through his journey—starting with a homebrew kit disaster, linking up with co-founder Jamaal Ewing, and navigating the legal landmines of naming a brewery (spoiler: it cost them 15K just to change it!).

We get into everything: Grand Rapids’ unexpected beer empire, fluoride in water, why sweet potato pie belongs in a stout, dropping iconic hip-hop-inspired beer labels, and the real talk about cultural representation in the beer industry, Black Calder is more than a brewery—it’s a movement.

Crack one open and ride with us ...
