Diamondback Brewing founded by longtime friends Tom, Francis, and Colin entered the brewing scene as contract brewers, making large batches at other breweries facilities and selling those batches in cans and draft to the local Baltimore community. After a year of contract brewing, they set their sights on finding their own space and now have a bustling tap room in Locust Point in South Baltimore. Next to the smokestack that sits centerstage in the tasting room, I sat down with Tom to see what life is like in the brewery through his eyes. This is Tom Foster of Diamondback Brewing. Listen In.

Today, we are going to talk about the apple. Adams County, Pennsylvania is the fifth largest county for apple production in the United States. It is home to apple growers, processors, and cider makers of all sizes. Nobody's hand is more on the pulse of this community than Ben Wenk of Three Springs Fruit Farm. His family has been farming the land in Adams County since 1901 and has seen the apple industry grow from its nascent beginnings into a burgeoning industry.
