TBR Special Edition - Reggie's Wake


I will be the first to admit that this is a strange way to do a show... Groucho and CHUD come back to the studio after going to a visitation for a longtime friend of both. Reggie.

Reg was only 30 when he died in a motorcycle accident... But we decided to share some of the many stories we have with our bud. In hopes to show off what a spectacular life he led in such a short time.

Beers enjoyed during the recording of this show: Thunderhead IPA, Dark Horse Double Crooked Tree IPA. (Big shocker... More IPA's!!)

Episode 36 - Night of the living dead beers

Kinda early for Halloween! But, this zombie beer show certainly will scare any beer drinker!

Groucho and CHUD are joined by AB for a rapid fire taste test of some year old IPA's... Its not pretty, so I will warn you now. Also, apologies in advance to any brewery who had a beer on the show... This was not a fair shake!

In all fairness to Clarke... We let him have a shot at rebuttal on the show... Listen in as Clarke throws in his 2 cents during the show.

Beers on the show: Clarkehead Homebrew IPA, Sand Creak Brewing Company Wild Ride IPA, LaCroix sparkling water, Green Valley Brewing Organic Wildhop lager, 2 Brothers Heavy Handed IPA, Founders Dry-Hopped Pale Ale, Dogfishhead Aprihop, Clarkehead Cider

TBR Interview - Mike Earnheart from Dark Horse Brewing

Thanks to Marketplace Selections for bringing this to Peoria! The tasting was held at Old Chicago on the Peoria Riverfront.

Groucho had a great time drinking some fine Darkhorse beers on draft, and trying some of the "secret stash" that Mark brought along.

Listen as we talk about Aaron, the head brewer and some of the processes that take place at Dark Horse... Like picking labels, making beer, and creating contests based on Aaron's beard!

Also hear the "Clink and Drink" for Good Beer Show... Yeah, thats "ours"!
