Oh crap, we’re a week late posting this episode. To make it up to you though, we’re going three stouts deep in this episode. Also, we bring back sports questions for Adam. To kick things off we sample Franken gloop from Books &Brews . It’s a triple chocolate stout, aged in a rye wheat whiskey barrel. It’s part of their Monster Reserve Series. Keeping it local, we then move to Deer Creek Brewery 's Black Mystic Java Stout. Editor’s note: This was last year’s Black Mystic. The year’s release is more “robust.” And to wind things down a bit, we venture out of state to discuss, Prairie Artisan Ales : No Chill Coffee Milk Stout. Oh, and if anyone knows and Army recruiter, Adam is “on tape” indicating he wants to enlist. Send us an email! * Photo Credit: Alyssa B (abatula on untappd)

Happy Saturday everyone! On this day, of all days, we're featuring Stouts! Pete has selected beers from 18th Street and Prairie Artisan Ales. Two stouts with similar ingredients, but both with their own, bold flavors. From 18th Street we feature their Hunter Milk Stout and from Prairie Artisan Ales, their BOMB! Adam follows that up with a lively discussion about crabs. Crabs of the water, and crabs of the sea. If you're a swimmer this is information you can't afford to miss. Also, this is the last time we'll be able to make fun of (some of) Adam's adult deficiencies. Since this episode Adam has moved out of his girlfriend's parent's house and has purchased a new(er) vehicle. We're all proud... and we are taking bets on both when he will be evicted and when we think (if ever) Adam will change the oil in his new(er) vehicle.

Happy freakin' Saturday! Let us help you start your weekend off right by tuning in to learn about milk stouts!We present to you beer from Books and Brews and Left Hand Brewing. Charlie and the Chocolate Milk Stout... ours was broken. It was more like Charlie and the Sour Milk Stout. If you see Books and Brews bombers on the shelves know that they have perhaps been kept on the shelf by the vendor for too long. We'd recommend going to the brewery directly to acquire their fine fermented beverages to ensure awesomeness. Plus, it's usually a fun time with cool people and excellent grilled cheese sangwiches. And, with the recent franchising, there is sure to be one near you. We then talk Left Hand Brewing followed by shower beer and then things reach the usual level of random that you come to expect from our show. Enjoy!
