Buy this hero a beer!

After paying €7.80 for a pint, Matt Cortland had a suspicion he was being overcharged for his beer. So he created an AI agent with a Northern Irish accent that autonomously called more than 3,000 pubs across Ireland to ask what the price of a pint of Guinness was.

He then used the data to create a website called “Guinndex,” a live, crowdsourced index of Guinness prices across Ireland. One pub owner reportedly lowered prices after seeing their listing on the Guinndex. Cortland says that he wants to apply the same tech and methodology to every other consumer product to keep prices in check.

Two of our Festival Committee members, Matt and Meg B., have been road trippin'.

They drove through the cornfields, albeit empty right now, to get to Jefferson Beer Supply in Jefferson City, South Dakota. They passed through 3 states in 2 days.

Here at Scorched Earth Brewing Company and enjoying their classic Bleuprint, and also trying their new Legion of Boom Blueberry Lime Gose Ale (the lighter color). Also gonna take home some amazing Afterburn Dry Irish Stout.

Owner Greg Doyen used to live in California and said that the red poppy you see on the Afterburn can graphic is a nod to the first flowers that would grow from the ashes of California wildfires.

The poppy is a dear symbol to veterans. The poppy is the symbol of Remembrance Day (Veterans Day) because it was the first flower to grow in the devastated, lime-enriched soil of WWI battlefields in Flanders, Belgium.

We always appreciate the great quality brews Scorched Earth offers, and their continued place at our Legions of Craft Beer Fest .
