E106: Remaining Relevant with Mike Frohlich of Laughing Sun Brewing Company
In this episode, we hang out with Mike Frohlich of Laughing Sun Brewing Company to swap stories about his wild ride through the craft beer world. From his early days at Rattlesnake Creek Brewery & Grill in 1996 to turning Laughing Sun into a Bismarck hotspot, Mike’s seen a LOT in craft beer evolution.
Highlights include:
* How Laughing Sun grew from a scrappy 3.5-barrel setup in a 162 sq. ft. space to a booming 20-barrel brewhouse with 5,000 sq. ft.
* The major revenue drivers breweries should be focused on in 2025
* Creative new products and offerings to explore as craft beer drinker preferences keep evolving
With over two decades of brewing, Mike brings a ton of wisdom (and some great stories) to the table. This episode is part history lesson, part how-to guide, and all-around good fun!
