Episode 665 – FoBABlin’: 8 Woods To Hold You
In its 8th installment, FoBABlin’ is all about us going deeper on the Festival of Wood and Barrel-Aged Beers than anyone. And we’re gearing up for the fest on November 13th & 14th by drinking four beers from breweries that will be attending – with more than one of these being some of the best beer we’ve opened all year. Also, hear about which breweries are new to the fest this year or returning after an absence; who of the steady attendee brewers you’ll most want to visit; how to navigate the festival itself; and what breweries we choose for a mock Fantasy FoBAB draft. Plus, Ryan is assembling a team of experts (who would make a great fit for podcast guests, apparently); Craig gets tremendous joy out of one line in a Half Acre lineup; and we discover the ultimate boy dinner (when you’re 13).
