Episode 308 - Smiggles Fest with Pontoon Brewing

This week we welcome back Tyler Weddle and Craig Snyder from Pontoon Brewing to dive into the wild world of Smiggles Fest 2026: The Real Slim Smiggles. We explore the history behind the festival, how the team developed this year’s five exclusive fruit-packed releases, and the brewing challenges that come with creating some of craft beer’s most over-the-top smoothie-style beers. We also get the inside scoop on festival activities, exclusive experiences for attendees, and what fans can expect from one of the most unique beer events of the year. And we do tastings of three new Pontoon beers in the Lofi series. Now grab a beer and enjoy the show!
