On this episode of Slurred Words we sit down with Jeff Lampley of Wandering Friar Beer and nerd out over beer and nerd culture. Jeff recently started Wandering Friar as a Gypsy brewer looking to sharpen is recipes and brewing skills while collaborating with some of the best MI brewers in the game. Before starting Wandering Friar, Jeff has been a home brewer for about five years before working at Jolly Pumpkin and Brew Detroit.

I met up with Jeff for a couple beers at a local favorite of mine, Woodward Avenue Brewery (The WAB). When I first arrived we ran into Chris Coburn, The WAB's head brewer who you can listen to on Episode 58. Jeff and I talked about what it means to be a Gypsy brewer and his goals for the future of Wandering Friar. I had an excellent time talk with Jeff about Beer and star wars too. Keep your eye out for Jeff and Wandering Friar as he continues to collaborate with breweries around the state.
