We take another ride on the ginger train today (I was always more of a Mary Ann guy myself but that’s another story) thanks to Fentimans Ginger Beer. They have been making numerous botanically brewed beverages since 1905. The process they use does take more time, seven days in fact, to ferment the…
Bundaberg Lemon Lime and Bitters will be hitting our taste buds today on the podcast. They are a family owned company located in Australia that has been brewing since 1960. Known first and foremost for their ginger beer, (which we should try in the future) Bundaberg grows many of their ingredients on site…
Two different beverages from Taylor’s Tonics is what we have in store for you on the podcast. First up will be a Chai Cola featuring a blend of black tea, ginger root, cinnamon bark, yerba mate, and other ingredients. Second will be a Mate Mojito made with Yerba Mate, Spearmint, Nettle Leaf, Lime,…
Great Divide Brewing is always at the top of our list when we think about oak aged beers. Their Yeti series of oak aged beers has always been unique and sometimes amazing. It is with that excitement that we try on the podcast today a seasonal beer simply called Rumble. It’s…

Back by popular demand it’s another four pack of pumpkin beers. In the same spirit of what we did last year for this podcast we are bringing three new pumpkin beers to the tasting table along with the returning champion. The challengers this year include the following: Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale,…
Oktoberfest may be almost over, but I think we have just enough time to slip in a seasonal from Ayinger Brewery. It’s their Oktober Fest-Märzen, one of the many beers they produce in Aying, Bavaria about 15 miles outside of Munich. As we talked about on a previous Oktoberfest podcast this style of…
If we say Newcastle, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind? Nut Brown, right? Well not this time. Today on the show when we are talking about Newcastle we mean their fall seasonal, Werewolf. Not only is this beer new to us it’s also their first brew made for…
Odell IPA vs Odell Myrcenary Double IPA is what’s on tap for the podcast today. Two beers enter, which one will be left empty. It could be both. No one knows for sure. We initially were only going to talk about the regular IPA, but having recently done a podcast about…
