Wild Things Welcome was brewed by Jefferson Beer Supply with the Loess Hills Wild Ones

As the summer’s flowers go to seed, Jefferson Beer Supply and the Loess Hills Wild Ones have found a way to preserve and enjoy some of the color. They’ve made a beer with them! But the enjoyment goes beyond taste. With the brewing comes a chance to gather, to learn, and to grow… more flowers. Wild One Dawn Snyder and Jefferson Beer Supply’s Nicki Werner joined Siouxland Public Media for a conversation about the new beer and the events that will buzz around it.

Mark Munger first began listening to public radio as a child in the back of his Mom's VW Vanagon, falling in love with the stories on Morning Edition and Prairie Home Companion and the laughter of Click and Clack on Car Talk. Through KWIT, he was introduced to the great orchestras and jazz artists, the sounds of folk and blues, and the eclectic expressions of humanity. This American Life and Radiolab arrived in his formative college years and made him want nothing more than to be a part of the public radio world.
