Glenn Cole from Geneseo Brewing Company came in today to catch us up on the goings-on in the Quad Cities Craft Beer World! You can find the full clip above.

He brought in the Beer of the Day: "Desperado" IPA. A blend of hops, lemondrop cascade and waiti (sp?) west coast style IPA

Actually Brandon Mavis from Craft Quad Cities brought it in. Here's a tip. Find people to come on your radio show that will give you free beer. You're welcome. Also, find people who will write your blogs for you. Thanks Brandon!
