Episode 27: Peter Bissell Part Deux

High Roller Lobster Company

On this continuing episode of the Beer Edge podcast, Andy Crouch talks again with Peter Bissell of Bissell Brothers Brewing. In this episode, we dig a little deeper and wax a bit more philosophical about business, beer, and life. Bissell discusses his influences, both in the beer industry and business in general, the importance of having one thousand true fans, and why it’s important that some people hate you.

Pete is an avid consumer of books on business and philosophy and he’s prioritized a rare combination of introspection and regularly taking in the view from 30,000 feet. The beer business moves quickly, even before COVID. Pivoting, responding, keeping your head down and grinding is the everyday reality for nearly every brewery owner. Too few take much time to consider their circumstances and consider how and whether to change them.
