Ep. 239 – Essential Items to Bring to a Craft Beer Bottle Share

Ep. 239 – Essential Items to Bring to a Craft Beer Bottle Share

Author: Joe & Caroline February 17, 2025 Duration: 1:06:25

Earlier this month, Joe attended a bottle share with the 513 Craft Brew Facebook group at Third Eye Brewing in Sharonville to celebrate the release of their collaboration beer, Meanwhile in Sharonville.

Bottle shares were once a key part of craft beer culture, but they're not as common today.  

In this episode of the Craft Parenting Podcast, we discuss:

  • What bottle shares are and why they matter
  • The essential items to bring to a bottle share
  • Our thoughts on Meanwhile in Sharonville, a barrel-aged blueberry raspberry maple syrup stout.

Plus, Joe shares a sneak peek of his guest appearance on Blake the Brewery Explorer's podcast and Caroline apparently has a sound clip on a show we've never heard of! 

What We Are Drinking

Meanwhile in Sharonville 
BA Blueberry Raspberry maple syrup Stout
Third Eye Brewing And 513 Craft Brew Facebook Group 
ABV: 12%

"Rise and shine, we're having pancakes for breakfast! In collaboration with the 513 Craft Brew, we're serving up a mouth-watering delight of berry pancakes in the form of a delicious barrel-aged stout. Aged for over a year and blended with blueberry raspberry, maple, vanilla, and marshmallow, this limited release is rich in dedicates yet bursts with a tart very sweetness that will transport you straight to your cozy breakfast nook. Now, where's the whipped cream? Contains lactose peanuts and wheat."

Ever feel like your identity gets a little lost between the school run and the bedtime routine? That’s the space where Craft Parenting Podcast lives. Hosted by Cincinnati couple Joe and Caroline Ludwig, this is a conversation between two parents who are also deeply passionate craft beer enthusiasts. They’re figuring it out in real time, with two kids keeping life interesting. In each episode, you’ll hear their unfiltered takes on the week’s small victories and chaos, whether it’s a toddler meltdown in the grocery store or the genuine joy of discovering a fantastic new local brewery. The stories are grounded in their midwestern life, blending tales of family adventures with genuine recommendations for a great pint, often enjoyed after the kids are finally asleep. It’s less about perfect advice and more about the shared experience of holding onto your hobbies and your sense of self while navigating parenthood. Tune in for a relatable, slightly hoppy take on modern family life that reminds you you’re not alone in the beautiful mess.
