This week, we record at Novare Res with one of its owners: Shahin Khojastehzad. He preciously fell in love with better beer at and age at which many people haven't even been buzzed, and he and offers a uniquely honest take on the history of Novare, balancing local with global, maintaining standards, and the value of pub culture. We also dig into Novare's quest to get better while staying true, leading to a very open discussion of why they stopped carrying Bissell Brothers after they changed their house yeast and ultimately why they got back in the saddle together. Shahin overdelivered in a conversation we were already excited for, and beyond being extremely interesting, he's the best player the Three Bay Sink will likely ever see.
