Episode 35.5 - Jacobite's and Frenchmen

Yeah, we did show 35 again... Can you blame us? We were pretty loaded after ep 34... How could we remember recording it the first time?

Groucho and CHUD take a European tour of beers on this episode. Starting in Scotland, and ending in the land of our nemesis... France! Sounds like a recipe for disaster right? You might be shocked at the results!

TBR Extra - Stumping and Shilling

At the time of this post, Spoon and Sickpuppy at www.shouldidrinkthat.com were up for a podcast award at podcastawards.com, but since then, they have lost to a coffee podcast!!! At least it wasn't wine!

So, hear Groucho beg a little for that.

Then, hear Groucho, CHUD and Margaret shill and beg for a few bucks for Margaret's ride to Santa Fe NM in September... All proceeds for her entry fee go to the Imus ranch (And you know we LOVE that cause)...

Thanks in advance for listening and for even thinking about contributing! Go to www.thebeerreport.com for a direct link via paypal.
