Transient Artisan Ales

Dovetail and Riggs: Crossfire

Carton Brewing

We travel back to the Garden State (thanks Mike Bobal!) to sample 6 Carton Brewing beers. We talk about founder Augie Carton, but lose ourselves due to the high ABV of most of the beers. So it drunken oaring, Chupa Chups, proper nachos, and Craig's monogamous cereal life. Get on the CanniBus with us!

Can't Stop the Hops

We again decide that hop-forward IPAs and DIPAs are life and indulge in 5 more of them. Beers Against Humanity is added to the mix to provide some non-tropical notes as we try to differentiate between these hoppy beers. Tell 'em Bruce Candles sent ya!

Hops For Downloads

Our listeners love hoppy beers, so we're doing 6 more of them purely for the downloads! In addition to hoppy beer shelf life, beer pricing, and the best Chicago brewery no one's talking about, we get into the stickiest deli meat, why Joey Pants is the best, and lethal Slip N' Slides. Download now!

Transient Artisan Ales

Join us as we travel to Bridgman, Michigan and talk to Chris Betts about Transient's expansion plans, hazy IPA shelf life, barleywines, and pricing. We also get into contract brewing, the odd charm of Norway's beer scene, local flora in his wild ales, Transient meads, and some distribution things. So many bungholes!

Dovetail and Riggs: Crossfire

Classic German styles go head-to-head in this episode as Dovetail from Chicago and Riggs Beer Co. from Urbana face each other (as well as other examples) in both the lager and hefeweizen categories. Prepare for the Lagergeddon! (Or the Hefeweight Championship!)

West Coast Bias: San Francisco – The Bistro DIPA fest

And sometimes the experience and the journey are just that. I awoke the next morning with a full day of beer related events to attend (so much so that it will cover two posts!).

West Coast Bias: San Francisco – Sante Adairius Rustic Ales

Sometimes the experience is the journey. With an estimated two and a half hour drive to Capitola, I head out during the late aftermoon into the rain yet again.

Episode 6 – West Coast Bias: San Francisco

Craig just came back from San Francisco, and he brought some beer back with him! Craig also spins yarns about his trip and we try to diversify our advertising portfolio with Nabisco and Tums.

West Coast Bias : San Francisco – Pliny the Younger

Sometimes you journey for the experience. And so I headed out to Santa Rosa, California to experience Pliny the Younger at Russian River Brewing.
