Robin Meiksins and her Beers and Flutes Series

Virtuosic flutist Robin Meiksins has a unique series called Beers and Flutes that she has curated over the past couple years. Austin and Robin chat about the series and how it came about. Both individuals are involved in the craft beer community in Chicago and love to showcase the craft and care that a lot of these brewers place in their products.

Robin showcases this appreciation by offering her talents and a flute performer and improviser creating brief but memorable improvisations about the beverage. Robin speaks about how it is not just the physical experience of the beverage but the memories and context in which they exist in our heads.
