282

Local craft beer, Bobcats ranked last, and US Airways impact on CLT, on this week’s 282

Posted on 6 Feb 2012 by Justin Ruckman

This week we talk about:

• Local craft beer: In the last few years, Charlotte has seen growth in the craft beer world — in the places that sell it, the local breweries that make it and people who consume it. Does this mean that Charlotte is on its way to becoming a beer town?
• Bobcats ranked last: The Charlotte Bobcats — is being the worst team the best thing for them? Was the team intentionally gutted to position them for future greatness?
• US Airways impact on CLT: Would Delta’s proposed merger US Airways be good or bad for Charlotte? Will this help us get more direct flights from Charlotte … or less?

Carlton is joined this week by the following panel:

• Jack Brayboy: Charlotte Small Business Spotlight
• Todd Ford: NoDa Brewing Company
• Mary C. Curtis: Washington Post’s She The People
