147: Burger Inquiry

Beer brags are slightly different, as we open up with a cider brag from the cider labs. Jeremy has a true beer brag though, lauding a brown ale he had at a local microbrewery. Next up, it is a Week in Geek throwback. We talk AGDQ, speedrunning video games, and books. Jeremy is back at it again with the annual reading goal. Then Michael interviews Jeremy about hambugers. Finally, it is the FDR, where we have something dark to match the drab, icy season.

Beer in this episode: Southern Tier 2X Stout

146: Return of the Brewery Blowout

This is a very special episode. No, we aren't dealing with serious issues like drugs or alcoholism as they did in 80s sitcoms, rather it is our first live episode in over a year! With that comes the requisite audio issues, but in turn, we have former cohost of the show, Mike! That's a good trade, right? We also go for a BREWERY BLOWOUT for the first time in over... two years maybe? We are at Seven Hill Brewing Company in Dubuque, Iowa. Featuring beer brags, trivia, and ten, count 'em ten, sampled brews.

Beer in this episode: a variety of beers from Seven Hills Brewing Company

145: Ronin Boyz

Kicking it with some beer brags up top, like us(ual). Michael has a brandy barrel-aged quad from Potosi Brewing of all places. Jeremy boasts the vaunted Christmas Bomb. He also boasts an SNES Classic, which he also got for Christmas. The nerds reminisce and discuss games of yore. Next, a loyal listener gives us the scoop on a brew we were curious about. Then Michael presents APMPod Story Time, which is the perfect lead in for the FDR. Is it yuck or yum? Find out, right now. Just push play.

144: Geographic Tongue

Themed beer brags! Michael has the citra-loaded King Sue while Jeremy has a Citra Triad flight from Big Grove, including a single, double, and imperial citra IPA. It's cirtamazing! Next, it's the American Pale Male Mail Pail, where a good friend has a question about impaired beer tasting. Not the type of impaired that you would think either. After some talk on beer products, it's off to the FDR!

143: The Year in Beer 2017

It is our end of the year classic, where we look back at 2017 and pick out our favorites. First though, beer brags. Jeremy had something from Ballast Point and Michael had the apt Winter is Here Game of Thrones beer from Ommegang. Next, we look at Google's Year in Search. Jeremy tries to guess what was most searched this year in Movies, Music, and Television. The astrocreeps stop us from going beyond that. Jeremy then recaps what it was like to read 30 books this year, including stats and his fav. Michael mentions a few he read. Then some good 2017 films are discussed. Next, on to the beer. We have awards for various categories and we choose our vaunted Beer of the Year. Who will it be? Finally, we look at 2017's New Beers Resolutions and make some next ones for 2018.


Cheers!
