Catching up with Bad Shepherd Beer

It’s been 18 months since we checked in with Ross Williams at Bad Shepherd Beer Company and things there keep getting better and better. Like all good craftspeople, this Charleston brewer keeps experimenting and keeps making little improvements to his product.

Ross tells the West Virgina Beer Roads team a few of his secrets and his challenges. We taste and discuss three of his beers: Boho Pils, Electric Petting Zoo IPA, and Wolf Cuddles Baltic Porter. Get up to date with what’s happening at this popular downtown Charleston brewery.
