164: Meet the French Press

Infusion-Ha! Emergency Show! Crazy neighbor of the show Steve joins Michael for a special episode where they try infusing with some brews in a French press. But before that, we start with beer brags as not to change things up too much. Michael had a spicy pastry stout, whereas Steve reminisces sipping on his last Hopslam. Next, it is the return of the Oreo review! Does the Mega Stuf offer enough creme units on the Oreo linear regression curve? Finally, we get into an extended FDR session where we infuse Sierra Nevada Pale ale with various ingredients. Will it revitalize a standard brew or is this Morth Borsted™?

Beer in this episode: Sierra Nevada Pale Ale plus infusions

163: Has Science Gone Too Far?

Back once again! Michael opens up with some beer brags from a tap takeover of a local bar/gastropub/ale house, featuring Hop Haus, specifically a saison and a barrel aged stout. Jeremy counters with his own brag of a dubbel and a tripel from Great River. Next we open the American Pale Male Mail Pail, reading some thoughts from former co-host of the show Mike. Would cereal make a good beer infusion? Next, it's Brews News, breaking down George Washington's beer recipe and a corresponding marketing ploy. Finally, it's time for the FDR, where Jeremy gets to swear on the show with impunity.
