Burnt Hickory Brewery's founder and brewmaster Scott Hedeen has been a "friend of the show" since before the show was even a show.  In the early days of Burnt Hickory (when Georgia breweries could only do tastings) we visited for the monthly gathering to enjoy their core beers and sneak a small pour of their rarities like Kolb's Farm stout and Charred Walls of the Damned Quad.  The tastings started with small groups of 30ish people but over time grew to welcome 1,000 or more at their events.

Hedeen has never shied away from doing crazy things with beer.  You'll find basic IPAs, Pilsners, and Stouts available but you also might find a beer loaded with coffee and stroboscopes, or blended with Butterfinger bars.  Most of his creations are excellent, although he admits the candy corn IPA was a bad call.

With opinions on every subject it's easy to get Hedeen on a roll.  When asked, "How was your week?", we get a 10 minute dissertation on the impact of Covid on breweries.  We also discuss brewing trends, his life before beer, punk rock, Georgia's new beer delivery bill, and what's next for Burnt Hickory.

Aja White is a wedding photographer who lives in Hickory, North Carolina and services the region but will also travel - next year she is going to Cancun!

Three Take-Aways

1. Self care is important for vendors and couples alike - preparing before helps Aja perform her best, while also not overbooking herself.
2. I love her motto: "Your weird is welcome here".
3. Aja jumped into wedding photography after having such a good experience with the wedding photographer at her wedding. You never know how you're going to get started!

The 2010 Murder Of 10 Year Old Cancer Survivor Zahra Baker By Her Step-Mother Elisa Fairchild

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

We are taking a break from California Crime and traveling clear across the US to Hickory, North Carolina to discuss the disturbing and tragic murder of 10-year-old Zahra Clare Baker, a two time cancer survivor from Giru, Australia.  Zahra moved to the US with her dad in 2008 after he met and married a so called Gothic Fairy named Elisa Fairchild.  Little did he know this woman had a checkered past, a spotty criminal history, and a half dozen marriages prior to him.    Voicemail bumper courtesy of Deborah in Southern California and promo from The Brew Crime Podcast

Burnt Hickory Brewery's Scott Hedeen is part idea man, part madman

I first met Scott Hedeen when Burnt Hickory Brewery was just a few months old.  Over the years he has become one of my very favorite people in the whole world.  He's also very high on the list of people that drive me crazy.  It's a weird relationship, but it works.

Hedeen is an idea man.  He's constantly thinking (and talking) about what's next.  For him, for others, for everything.  The wheels are constantly spinning.  This makes for some great conversations, amazingly creative ideas, and a 5-minute phone call about hops turning into a 50-minute phone call about IPA, playing the theremin, 80s punk, and standup comedy.

Hedeen founded his brewery in 2011 and produced his first commercial batch in April 2012.  Back then, his Wonka World of craft beer only opened to the public one Saturday each month.  Initially, 20-30 dedicated fans showed up for the tastings but it wasn't long before they numbered in the hundreds.  BHB's fans weren't just normal beer lovers, they felt connected to the brewery and the beer, they were passionate about it.  Those who didn't "get" what Burnt Hickory was about went as far as calling their fans a cult.  That's not far from the truth.

This week, Hedeen and Burnt Hickory taproom manager Heddy Proctor join us to talk about their adventure.  We talk a little bit about their brewery and growth, a lot about music, why it's important for breweries to support homebrewers, and several other topics that I was not able to keep up with.  Scott has something to say about everything, and we tried to catch as much of it as we could.

This is Burnt Hickory Brewery's third appearance on Beer Guys Radio.  They also joined us on Ep. 13 in March 2016 and Ep. 56 in Jan. 2017.

In this week's news we talk about comedian Jim Gaffigan's jab at craft beer, I oldest brewery in the world is found, and Atlanta taking the #1 spot in a list of growing craft beer destinations.
