It's finally happened! We located an Indiana brewery that we haven't previously offended and was not aware of the inherent risks associated with the mere presence of Adam in the building. Cedar Creek Brewing Company opened the brewery doors and collaborated with us on our first ever commercial beer release, Revival! This pre-prohibition lager is an…

That's right, a Halloween episode in May. It just so happens that we sampled Adam Has Two Moms from Sun King brewing back in October and that particular American Amber comes out seasonally in the summer. So this all makes sense... Just really going to need for you to go with it. Two American Amber Ales, a Rye IPA, and a whiskey. Enjoy!…

Hey Boos, check out our newest Shorty featuring INterspace.

Every now and again we're gifted some beverages from brewers or friends of the show. Usually these are limited type releases and not everyone can get their hands on 'em. While we don't always encourage scouring the secondary market for beer, we do have to say... the beers same on this episode were mighty fine. If you're fortunate enough to have som…

If you think that title sounds off-putting, just wait until you listen to this episode! We make a very deliberate and concerted effort in our first episode of 2021 to stay on task and on topic.

Just pretend we're the drunk uncle at the t…

Flat 12 Bierwerks, Upland Brewing Company, Black Flag…

We feel the need to apologize to Bad Dad Brewing Company. They submitted samples to us for our review. In typical, thespeakpodcast fashion; Adam was Adam, Pete managed to misspeak in near record time, and Rob was there to try and coral this clown-show we call a podcast. We reviewed 6 different Bad Dad Brews. The lineup there is Fairmount is tremend…

We've never really participated in, "Sober October" before. However, we thought now might be a good time to try some Alcohol Free beers and report our findings. We sourced an "AF" expert and located another Fultz who is something of a fledging authority on alcohol free beer. Yes, you read correctly. We used both "Fultz" and "expert" in the same sen…

We consume three IPA's - so we titled the episode three IPA descriptors. Really can't tell you if they're appropriate or not; after the first few minutes of Adam talking about Star Wars my brain just went numb. First out of the gates is Triton's The Hempire Strykes Back. It's an approachable Hemp IPA that lead to so much Star Wars discussion. Our s…

If we're being honest, "Comprehensive" is a bit of a stretch. We can promise we have delivered on a solidly mediocre, but approachable "Joe Six Pack" kind of review.
