#31 Chris LeBeau, Mixologist & Podcaster, St. Louis, Missouri

Chris LeBeau is a St. Louis-based mixologist whose workshops are primarily aimed at cocktail-curious home bartenders and corporate events.
He also runs the immaculately slick "Decoding Cocktails" podcast, and just launched a second one,  "So this one shift" which he describes as "Storycorps meets the beverage industry".
He's had me on his podcast before, and we didn't really get to hang at Tales of the Cocktail, so it was time to switch on the mikes and kick back with an adult beverage.
We cover the amazingness that is the Michter's Fort Nelson distillery, visitor center and bar in Louisville; the media's relationship to cocktails; what spirits can learn from craft beer; living in an old money town like St. Louis; why vermouth deserves more love; the current state of celebrity bartenders and a whole bunch more.

(PR friends: we’re only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things besides their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is.
They need to be able to hang.
Oh, plus we don't edit, and we won’t supply prepared or sample questions, or listener or “reach” stats, either, and no, you can't sit in on the interview or Zoom.)
