A Few Imperial Stouts Jan 30, 2021

Show notes

Every now and again we're gifted some beverages from brewers or friends of the show. Usually these are limited type releases and not everyone can get their hands on 'em. While we don't always encourage scouring the secondary market for beer, we do have to say... the beers same on this episode were mighty fine.

If you're fortunate enough to have some Scheming Demons from Deviate Brewing or a bomber of Feu De Camp from Black Flag Brewing Company sitting around, feel free to play the home game with us. Or, if you've had them before, let us know what you thought of them!

Either way, here's another 45 minutes of mindless entertainment

XOXO

**Double IPA's and a Toilet Symposium** Jan 14, 2021
Show notes

If you think that title sounds off-putting, just wait until you listen to this episode!
We make a very deliberate and concerted effort in our first episode of 2021 to stay on task and on topic. Things start off well while we discuss 18th Street Brewing's Deal with the Devil. It was a boozy little number that we all enjoyed.
There is then an artful transition into Cigar City Brewing's Florida Man. A little juicy, a little resin, and a nice little beer.
Then things start to take a little turn. Some Double IPA discussion leads to water quality discussion. In an effort to make our discussion sound more intelligent than it actually was, Pete delves into a toilet symposium. Yes, we talk toilets. Not just that, but the most effective way to brew utilizing said toilet.
And because Pete seems to think tying reputable companies to his asinine ideas will have favorable outcomes, he's requested brewing companies send us equipment for a head-to-head "brewoff." Their equipment vs a toilet.... Because apparently when state of the art, modern brewing equipment can brew a better product than a porcelain waste disposal device that has to improve their sales, right?
Listen in! Share with friends! Leave us a rating!

**A Very 2020 Christmas** Dec 25, 2020
Show notes
Christmas, a time of joy and child-like anticipation of what Santa has left under the tree for all the good little boys and girls... Consider this episode the big-ass lump of coal in your stocking, kids.
We celebrate Christmas exactly how you'd expect. Six beers, Adam singing, and a Nazi reference or two. Just pretend we're the drunk uncle at the table that you can't get to shut up. Listen and endure!
For our dedicated fans who play the home game, here is your beer shopping list:
Sun King Electric Reindeer
Spoetzl Brewery Shiner Holiday Cheer Ale
Breckenridge Brewery Christmas Ale
Fat Heads Brewery Holly Jolly Christmas Ale
Lexington Brewing Company Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Peppermint Porter
Bell's Brewing Christmas Ale

**DZ and THBC** Dec 11, 2020
Show notes
We've never claimed to be the most organized podcast on the internet; we mostly just claim to be the best podcast on the internet.
Having said that, please enjoy a podcast that was recorded over a year ago after superfan, "DZ" brought us a bounty of beverages from Terre Haute Brewing Company out of Terre Haute, Indiana. We sampled and reviewed the CitraGenesis Wheat Beer, Madame Brown English Brown Ale, Powerline Imperial Double East Coast IPA, and the Sticky Green Double IPA.
We'll have to follow-up with THBC after they listen to this episode and see if they'll allow us in the brewery. These beers are good enough to justify a trip to Terre Haute. We know, we know, it smells - but trust us, it's worth it.

A Fruity Antiquity, A Chill Sesh, and Donuts for Desert! Nov 08, 2020

Show notes

We "Indiana Jones'ed" in Rob's beer fridge (nearly losing Adam to a booby trap) and emerged with a unique variety of tasty beverages. The title of this episode is all of the additional information we are willing to provide. Thanks to the following breweries for giving us something to talk about!

Flat 12 Bierwerks, Upland Brewing Company, Black Flag Brewing Company, DuClaw Brewing Company
