We are always happy to be given samples of new beverages to try. Recently, we had the opportunity to venture into uncharted territory as we were given a couple of bottles to try by some friends who had just finished making their first batch of home brewed beer. Whether or not they knew…
Spring is in the air on the podcast today as we try an anniversary beer from Spoetzl Brewery. That name may sound unfamiliar to you, but it will all become clear when I mention the brewery is located in Shiner, Texas. I can already feel that the light bulb just clicked on. …
I love a rainy night. I write that because it is such a treat to have a little rain and cold weather when I thought that was all behind us for at least a few months. It (the first sentence and the title) also gave me a chance to make a few song…
Unfamiliar territory can be an exciting thing, especially when it’s a style of beer that some people don’t know as much about, including your hosts. Today on the podcast we add another mic to the mixer and have a guest (Fitz) try this beer along with us. The beer is from Van Honsebrouck…

I (Andrew) have been storing two other bottles since then and we thought it would be interesting to try it one more time and see what changes may have occurred, before waiting until December 2012…
No stranger to the podcast are beers from Guinness. So of course we were excited to find out that a beer that has been enjoyed by people around the world for over 200 years is finally making its way to the US market. The Guinness Foreign Extra Stout is made with the highest…
