Joel catches up with Chad Forsberg, the barefoot brewer behind Cashton’s Footjoy Farm & Brewing, for a conversation that covers everything from ancient grains to gubernatorial visits. Tune in to hear:

  • The "Sole" of the Business: The hilarious (and literal) reason behind the name "Footjoy"

  • From Field to Glass: How Chad’s family homestead in North Dakota, farmed for over 160 years, supplies 100% of the grain for every single beer on tap.

  • Pizza Genius: The method behind his menu’s madness, including why "crazy" toppings like venison, squash, and brie are born out of garden necessity rather than just culinary dreams.

  • A Visit from the Gov: The inside scoop on Governor Tony Evers’ recent trip to the taproom, where he helped make a pizza (and received a very unusual foot-themed gift).
