Drive-by Fruiting

Listener Rod made a porch beer drop delivered all the way from Fresno. The entire ILB Team reunites to enjoy Tioga Sequoia's Half Dome fruit beers. In preparation for Oktoberfest, Doc and Talent head over to Blue Fire Brewing to brew a Bamburg specialty beer. The Doctor's in the house, so that means Beer or Not a Beer!? and Craic! 

Holy Macro!

After six years of podcasting, the team returns to its roots. From the backyard Pub Shed, they reminisce about macro beers of yesteryear and sample craft clones of the American Light Lager style from Booze Bros, South O and Paperback Brewing. Doc's back with Craic and the team is left pondering, what exactly is "man-size pleasure?" and "how bad is scurvy?"
