Tools of the Trade

 

KXT is celebrating artisans and the tools that help them do what they do. Today we’re looking at the incredible local beer community and the unique objects brewers use every day.

You can get a look at some of these objects in person when you contribute to KXT and select the Craft Brew Pass – a tour of three local breweries complete with samples and pint glasses.
