Craft Beer Pulls Up Anchor Brewing

Hi. Welp, we are assuming you know about the big news that Sapporo is closing craft beer icon, Anchor Brewing. We will spend a little time with this, for sure.

There is also some cleaning up after Radarpalooza 3 in Pittsburgh as some stats are released. Chapman Brewing gets a mention, we are missing someone, one of us sat alone in a bar and much more!

Tearing Beer a New Firkin

Hey look, man, I dunno why we are joking about Firkin style beer all episode like it’s 2016 or something, but we are. So have fun with it.

Also have fun with all the Radarpalooza #3 in Pittsburg content – Pittsburg is a better beer city than we thought, that is for sure.

Plus, authentic Untappd ratings, the lack of Craft Beer at Bowlero, coffee pours, Winos vs. Beeros and a bunch more.

Old Beer Drawer: Clam Jam $1

LOOK OUT! No new episode this week.

I got Covid this week and it knocked me down enough I could not record the show. So, we are forced to air an old episode this week. We will be back next week, but for now, enjoy the original Clam Jam:

Click: OldClamJam.mp3 

Original Show Notes:

There is a new wave of self-pour beer places happening. Sounds kinda awesome to be able to pour your own beer. Hasn’t that always been the dream? To be able to jump behind the bar and pour all the beer you want?

Well it’s a reality now and maybe it’s not such a great thing. We bring back Rad Stacey from New Belgium (plus the awesome Shana Shamalamadingdong of GoldStein’s) to help us break down that topic.

They also help us drink a lot of beer! Namely New Belg’s Fat Tire & Friends 12-pack. Plus they teach us what a “clam jam” is and we listen to a new song from Paul In Fairfax (that is pretty RAD), press Stacey for New Belgium buyout news, and lots of voicemail!

*Editor’s note: Sorry in advance for all the “talking over each other” you will have to endure this week. It’s the price you pay when you party and podcast. And yes, there will be crotch references.

Tailgating The Firestone Walker Invitational Beer Festival

Do you think they are REALLY going to let us in? Being from Fresno is both a bond and a threat. Can the Firestone Walker Invitational handle us? We will discuss.

Sour Beer is Dead and Weird Untappd DMs

Many layers to this episode. Dense in places, silly and wild in others. Glad to have you here, though.

Just a FEW of the highlights:

  • Are Dry Ice IPAs a real thing?
  • Should we all go in on a brewery?
  • Is Sour Beer dead?
  • The beer geek world found out that @DontDrinkBeer has Colon Cancer. We stop to gush about Alex and what he means to the beer scene. You can help him with his medical expenses by going here.
  • Are Crayon IPAs real?
  • A Michelada vs. a Bloody Mary.
  • Weird DMs in Untappd.

And much more! Thank you for listening!
