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!

142: Enbeaked Onion Rings

We kick it off with some beer brags. Jeremy touts out a new brewery and wurstery that he went to. Michael has Jeremy guess the country of origin for his beer. Then we begrudgingly take on with the Christmas stuff. Michael and Jeremy try their hand at a quiz about Christmas songs. Somehow, Billy Crystal and Spike Jonze are involved. Then it is off to Toyland, as we discuss the top selling toys of yesteryear with some fond and some not so fond memories. Finally, it is time for a completely not festive FDR, which is refreshing on multiple levels.

141: Uncle Burt's Suds

We start off with beer brags. Jeremy had an Easy Eddie (sp?) while playing "trivia" - the fix was in. Michael brags about two heavy hitting brews - a quad and Black Butte XVIII. Then it's time for Jeremy on the Aisle! Jeremy gleefully reviews recent films he's "scene" in this jaunty segment. Michael discovers a movie he might actually want to watch. Then, Let's Feud. Google Feud. We try, but mostly fail at this game. Then the FDR. Will it be like The Giver and give us warm memories of summer while we try to escape from a fierce dystopian hellscape as we trudge through the snow? Did that kid die at the end of that book?  It was never clear to me.

140: Chase Taste

Beer brags like fingerprints are slowly raising. Michael has Sisyphus Blonde which reminds him of an old belove brew from yesteryear. Jeremy has good news though... this scion of said brew is still being brewed!  Jeremy then brags about a side-by-side he tried: Stone Xocoveza Charred vs. Stone Xocoveza. The results intrigue. Michael bring back the Podcast Pitch with "Raised by TV" and "Music of the Mat". Next, a hamfisted quiz about demons that we found online. Finally, the FDR.

139: Barley Winehouse

Beer Brags abound! With the Duchess and a nice, spicy, brown mustard ale. A letter then drifts out of the American Pale Male Mail Pail and we read it. The notion of the movie Junior passes and we answer the question contained within. Next, we Beer the Band! Or Artist in this case as we design a brew for the late, great Amy Winehouse. Then we realize this may be in poor taste. Speaking of taste, time for the FDR. Does this "freak beer" inspire?
