Josh Noel of The Chicago Tribune Talks 3 Floyds And Furloughs

<p>On this episode of the Beer Edge podcast, <a href="https://www.beeredge.com/our-team/">Andy Crouch</a> speaks with <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/chinews-josh-noel-20130507-staff.html">Josh Noel of the Chicago Tribune</a>. Crouch grew up in and around Chicago and spent much of his youth reading the Trib. These days, things are tough for the hometown paper. It’s a subject Josh will discuss and you should certainly follow his Twitter account, at <a href="https://twitter.com/hopnotes">hopnotes</a>, for more info. Josh is the author of the acclaimed <a href="https://www.joshnoel.net/barrel-aged-stout-and-selling-out">Barrel Aged Stout and Selling Out</a>, about the rise of Goose Island and eventual sale to Anhueser-Busch, and is one of the country’s best regarded beer writers. As happens when you interview a journalist, Josh tries to turn the tables and interview the host on a few occasions. It's an occupational hazard. In this interview, Crouch and Noel talk about how COVID-19 is impacting the mainstream media, how when 3 Floyds speaks people listen, and they break down the state of beer journalism and writing today. </p><p>For more information on the <a href="http://www.beeredge.com/podcasts/">Beer Edge Podcast</a>, or to check out <a href="http://www.beeredge.com/">Beer Edge: The Newsletter for Beer Professionals</a>, follow us on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/thebeeredge">@thebeeredge</a> and subscribe to our <a href="http://www.beeredge.com/newsletter/">beer industry focused newsletter</a>.
