Rock-N-Brews

This week Jon and Thomas are joined by Bekah so you know it's going to be hysterical.
We kick off with a solid IPA brought to us by Scott (Buttercup) straight from Washington state and talk about how you can check a suitcase with as much beer as you want.
The we have a little intervention and discuss gambling problems with Bekah and how Carter's getting into it too.  
We try a new beer Bekah brought back from PA called Renegade, a beer linked to Styx (the band, not the river), talk about the song Watermelon Crawl and how illegal it is for that festival to happen in Georgia and finish out with conspiracies.
 

On this episode, Jon and Thomas take one for the team and try a few beers.
Joey broughts us a family size can of Steel Reserve (swill) , an 8.1% malt liquor from Steel Brewing Company
Nicole brought us Founder’s Mortal Bloom.  A hazy IPA clocking in at 6.2%. She also wrapped the cans in a very nice decorated paper bag.
My Dad send me back Cherry Chouffe, and amazingly crisp cherry beer which is a whopping 8% Imported by Duvel Moorgat
Topics of the show include -
customers that love our beer and wings, almost to the point they needed to get a room.  There was a brewery disaster that left the brewery closed for 2 1/2 days over THE most important drinking holiday - St. Patrick's Day.
The brewery garden club takes off under the green thumb of Keri. 
The band you like, but didn't know you liked.
How Jeff Bezos and Blue Origin are out to trick you into thinking they have the tech to go to space and back and the subliminal Satanic messaging behind it
A new segment called Fun Facts, will blow your mind, at least until you understand the math behind it. And also how much we now respect Russians.
 

In part two Thomas and Jon talk about tipping etiquette vs (in)convenience fees. Georgia Beer Day happened and led to yet another “Jon’s gone and hell breaks loose” story. Jon realizes that he’s not a good trainer. Jon and Thomas are Social Media Influencers. And a conspiracy neither of us remembers putting into the show notes.

This is part 1 of 2 - the recording went almost 2 hours so we split it up.
This week Jon and Thomas catch up after a long break due to work schedules.
We taste some amazing beers -
Interstellar Bonanza - Three Floyds - Hammond IN - Brought by Scott / Buttercup
Orbital Delusion - IPA from Drekker Brewing Co. - Fargo, ND - - Brought by Scott / Buttercup
Berry Berry Melomel type mead - Made by Fan of the Brewery Ben Grace
Mystery Crowler - We canned something a while back and never labeled it
We talk about Georgia Beer Day in conjunction with a band out back - The Magnolia Mile - who always draws a crazy crowd.
We have two AMAZING listeners that brought us some pretty freaking cool gifts that are on display behind the bar.  Plus we get an email from a listener with a joke.
We Love our listeners!
 

Back from a holiday break, Jon and Thomas try Jai Alai Double IPA and it's pretty damn good.  We talk about New Years Eve and what happened at midnight if you were here, you know. 
We actually got a couple comments from listeners to talk about - one of which was related to a past episode and one question was related to the hardest beer I've ever brewed.
Thomas gets stiffed on a tip after pretty much being someone's bitch all night, we hit a somewhat old conspiracy / movement that may have some footing and then we talk about a music story that proves Jon failed as a father.

Christmas Episode!  [*Extra Explicit and Crude*]
In this episode all 4 of us (Jon, Thomas, Keri and Bekah) sit down to drink, laugh and recall various stories and shenanigans from the past month.
We kick off the episode by tasting more moonshine that Curtis brought us - Dr. Dum Dum's Strawberry and Blackberry.  We hit some Christmas Party news, Thomas talks to Santa, we talk about a game Jon wrote back in high school, Keri's obsession with Snoop Dog and we round out the episode with a "Who spits water first" - Joke contest which gets very funny and VERY crude. All I have to say is Bekah understood the assignment.

This week on the podcast, Jon and Thomas taste Hayburner IPA from Big Ditch Brewing Company in Buffalo New York, Swing Juice from Weathered Ground Brewery in West Virginia and Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale from Lexington Brewing and Distilling.  
We talk about Thanksgiving adventures, the game bookshelf, Jon goes on a rant, some listener feedback about the kitchen, of course Distributor crap and Jimmy Buffet.

This week Jon and Thomas get some new podcasting equipment thanks to Jon's copious amount of Amazon points.  A super drunk customer makes an appearance, Jon thinks Mickey Mouse is a classic rock singer from the 70's and Thomas thinks there's cannibals in our National Forests and Parks.
