Round 102 - Curtain Up

<p>This week, it’s a love letter to Broadway as Stephen &amp; Gabe take a deep dive into the Curtain Up beer initiative! The “Happy Hour Guys,” Mark Aldrich and James Ludwig, started their Broadway Brews project as a way to bridge the gap between two great loves, musical theatre and beer. In March 2020, when the pandemic forced a shutdown of the theatre industry, the guys started Curtain Up as a way to support the arts, increasing awareness and raising money for the Actors’ Fund. To date, the project has enlisted 75 breweries across 14 states, and variations of the Curtain Up IPA are hitting shelves at a rapid pace.</p> <p>Featured beers: Curtain Up IPA offerings from Gun Hill Brewing and Torch &amp; Crown.
