QUOTES:
"At Mims Distributing, we can't stop talking about beer," said Mims. "In 'Tales from the Cask,' Tony, Jen and I are sharing our chats from our favorite drinking establishment - our own bar. In the podcast, we review beer news, try some great brews, and since we are at a bar, we never know who might pop in and share a beer with us."
