Today’s show is a Beer As Folk interview with Zak Davis from the Shmaltz Brewing Company. If that name has you scratching your head, you might recognize their flagship beer, He’Brew Genesis Ale. Even if you haven’t tried it, you’d no doubt recognize that cool Hebrew-inspired font on their labels. In any case, Zak and I chatted at a local Whole Foods prior to a tasting, and I found out there’s a lot more to Shmaltz than wildly imaginative beers combined with hilarious and unappologetic Semitism. For instance, they have surprising ties to sideshow freaks. Oh, and zombies, too.
