The Beerists 183 - Mixed Up Sep 02, 2015

Show notes

It's a mix episode! 5 beers with no theme, and 3 Beerists to try them. We talk pumpkin beers, whether the word "craft" is useful anymore, and various failure.

The Beerists 182 - Minnesota Treats Aug 24, 2015

Show notes

Listener Chase Smiley loaded us up with Minnesota beers, and Rubio, Grant and Mike drank all of them on this episode. 152 oz of beer, split between 3 people, which easily results in one of our drunkest episodes ever.

The Beerists 181- Against the Grain Aug 19, 2015

Show notes

Listener Kevin Hicks brought us 5 beers from Louisville's Against the Grain Brewery. Rubio and Anastacia are joined Habeab and Harvey, affectionate lies are told, and things got a bit hairy at Rubio's birthday party.

The Beerists 180 - Gose Aug 12, 2015

Show notes

It's hard to believe that Gose might not exist today if it wasm't ressurected from extinction in the 80s. We try 5 of them on this episode, along with our buddy Habeab.

The Beerists 179 - Barreled Everything Aug 03, 2015

Show notes

Barreled beers are everywhere these days. These 5 seem pretty promising, if we don't black out first that is. Grant is almost a dad again, Anastacia is sweaty, Rubio is 40, and Mike's bathroom is gross.

The Beerists 178 - 2nd Shift Jul 27, 2015

Show notes

Listener Andy Richter sent us a box of beer from Missouri's own 2nd Shift Brewing. Mike commits to a good cause, Grant is a marketing genius, Rubio does a voice, and Anastacia may have found her maiden.

The Beerists 177 - Louisiana Jul 22, 2015

Show notes

When listener Charles Hall visited Austin recently, he came with a box full of Louisiana beers for us. Grant is a jerk, Mike is defective, Anastacia is angry, and Rubio loves you individually.

The Beerists 176 - Five Cans Jul 13, 2015

Show notes

3 Beerists, 5 cans of beer. Mike has a crisis, Rubio is still Mexican, and Grant may or may not have a problem with that. Thanks to Sean Grogan and Chris Butler for providing beer for the show.

The Beerists 175 - Maine Beer Co Jul 07, 2015

Show notes

Maine Beer Co has been on our radar for a while, but isn't available in Austin. Lucky for us, we grabbed 5 bottles from The Beer Temple while we were in Chicago.
