Today's episode starts with Mike speaking in French, for whatever reason. (Maybe a hint towards the location of today's brew?) Mike begins the show relating a Homebrew Beer Brag, while Michael mentions a find in his fridge of unknown origin. Next, Mike's Week in Geek involves computer operating systems and TV in bed, while Michael speaks on a British Broadcasting Corporation show. Then, our heroes take on the machine once again in Mikes Vs. Machine (spoiler: it doesn't go well). Finally, the FDR: a brew from the Southern US that may have something in common with a greyhound.

Nerdy conversation disguised as a beer tasting podcast, without pretension...or expertise. Intended for audiences 21 years of age and older (but still largely safe for work).

066: Beerosity
Today's episode begins with Mike almost immediately derailing the podcast with a thought experiment. Afterward, Michael starts out the Beer Brags with a "hot" drink, while Mike relates a Pre-eer Brag. Next, Michael regales his time during a sitcom-themed trivia night for the Week in Geek, while Mike speaks of his experience doing some cheap labor. Then, Michael shares some information during a recent Wikihole dive which has a tenuous tie to today's FDR/New Deal, a brew that definitely breaks the streak of recent reviews in the three and four star range.

065: It Wouldn't Be This Show If You Hadn't Mispronounced Something
Today's episode begins with a decently-sized tangent about Fourth of July fireworks before diving into Beer Brags. Michael starts the segment talking about a nitro porter, before Mike jumps in to reminisce about a brew featured on the show. Next, Watch The Thrones makes its return to the show as the boys discuss the recent finale and the season as a whole. Then, will it be a Rise of the Machines in Mikes Vs. Machine, or will humans reign supreme? Finally, the FDR: a classic American beer with the name of a patriot.

064: American Pale Males 64
The Nintendo 64 nostalgia is strong with this one. Michael kicks off the episode with a new New Glarus brew, while Mike highlights a sampler pack. Mike jumps directly into the Week in Geek with a trivia event while Michael provides an update on his superhero movie viewing. Next, Michael tests Mike's knowledge of the N64 with a short quiz, with lots of video game memory lane tangents along the way. Finally, the FDR- a widely available craft(?) brew with dubious corporate connections.

063: I Was Hoping It Would Be, Like, The Hookshot
Michael kicks off the show with a Beer Brag that turned out to be an unexpected delight, while Mike relates a few beers he had at the conclusion of a physical event, which doubled as his Beer Brag and Week in Geek. Next, Michael brings back the Podcast Pitch for his Week in Geek. Then, Michael introduces a new co-operative quiz segment called Mikaels Vs. Machine- can our heroes defeat the robot overlords? Finally, the FDR: the last entry in the Southeastern Beeries, a red-colored brew that splits the hosts.

062: You're The Malt, And I'll Be The Hops
Michael kicks off Episode 62 with a Beer Brag hailing from a recently opened brewery, while Mike relates a brag-worthy beer gift. Michael gives an update on a Week in Geek from an episode previous, and Mike takes the segment back to Jane Austen's England with a recent film. Michael also quickly throws E3 into the segment as well and the boys discuss some of the news coming out of California. Next, Michael bravely navigates through the Mail Door for the Pale Mailbag, where Mike takes some lumps from friend of the show Jeremy. Then: the FDR, featuring a well-known craft brewery that has somehow escaped APM's grasp until now!

061: I Didn't Like That Bucky Guy That Much
Michael kicks off the episode sans alliterative accolades before Mike jumps in with Beer Brags from a recent trip, while Michael brags about an "experimental" brew. Next, Mike gives an update about and shamelessly plugs his stage show again for his Week in Geek, and Michael discusses the second superhero movie he's ever seen. Then, the return of Brews News, featuring recent news regarding beer logos. Finally, the FDR: an 80s themed beer that might feel at home in a pastel t-shirt and white sports jacket!
