These many collaboration beers have been at the very least interesting and sometimes quite delicious. Today on the show we have the latest of these ventures featuring Bear Republic, Fat Head’s, and of course Stone Brewing. Their creation is a very unique TBA (Texas Brown Ale) with the addition of some brown sugar,…
Just a little reminder of what will be going on at AboutBeverages.com for the week of June 11th – June 17th 2012. Due to half of our staff being on vacation, there is only the two of us, we have but one video again this week. It does happen to be a collaboration…
Laughing Dog Brewery is making its second appearance on the podcast. The first time was with their Rocket Dog Rye IPA. Today we have the Sneaky Pete Imperial IPA. This five hop blend of Simcoe, Glacier, Centennial, Vanguard and Hallertuaer clock in at an even 10% ABV. Besides the obvious that…

Available year round, the Sierra Nevada Kellerweis is a hefeweizen in the most classic of ways. It’s one of the only American Hefeweizens to use open style fermentation, a very labor-intensive process. Like the Rogue Hefeweizen earlier in the week, it also falls into the sessionable category at 4.8%. Not to continue…
Rogue Brewing kicks of our week long salute to the hefeweizen with a beer simply called Mom Hefeweizen.

Like most beers in…
