Netflix has given the green light to a new comedy series from Greg and Jeff Schaffer. 

Brews Brothers follows estranged brothers, Wilhelm and Adam Rodman, who find themselves running a brewery together. Each one is a beer genius—a braumeister—but they couldn’t be more different in their beer-making techniques and personalities.

As the streaming giant puts it: “a lot of times in a show you see two people who complete each other. These two don’t even make a full person.”

Staring as the brothers are Alan Aisenberg (Orange Is the New Black) and Mike Castle (House Guest, Clipped). Carmen Flood and Marques Ray round out the cast.

Penning the eight-episode series is Greg Schaffer. He will also serve as showrunner and will executive produce with Jeff Schaffer, Jonathan Stern and Keith Quinn.
