Episode 117 - Great Lakes Commodore Perry

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:53:02 GMT

One of our "Great Lakes Brewing" series, we examine the Commodore Perry IPA. The beer celebrates an epic battle fought by Commodore Perry and his men on Lake Erie during the war of 1812. This IPA actually presents a nice malt nose, which doesn't necessarily accompany all IPAs, and that helps this beer along its journey to becoming an incredible beer. Wonderfully complex and balanced, yet still ending with a traditional IPA bitter, this beer scores quite high with both of us.

Episode 101 - Bear Republic Hop Rod Rye

Wed, 16 Sep 2009 15:02:04 GMT

We're back after our big 100th party, and we're bringing you a big beer. The Hop Rod Rye, a rye-infused beer from Bear Republic from Healdsburg, CA - the home of other big hitter beers - is made with 20% rye grain and is very hoppy. Rye beers have a very long history, and was an important ingredient in beer up until the 5th century AD. Also called a Roggenbier, Rye Ales are still new to the American public, but something worth some serious consideration.

Episode 090 - Browerij De Ranke XX Bitter

Wed, 12 Aug 2009 16:54:01 GMT

The self-proclaimed "hoppiest beer in Belgium" is in fact a Belgium IPA - a new variety of beer that's making some waves. With the potential for a magnificent mix of Belgian malts and American hops, Belgian IPAs are still a work in progress. The XX Bitter from Browerij De Ranke impresses Dave more than Johnny - what do you think?

Sun, 15 Mar 2009 18:15:02 GMT

We are lucky enough to try out two tremendous beers - starting with a surprisingly good IPA from Two Brothers Brewing, and then moving on to an old friend, Brouwerij de Regenboog, to try their wheat Vuuve, which is yet another big win from them.

Episode 041 - Otter Creek Winter Ale, Regenboog t'Smisje IPA Plus

Tue, 20 Jan 2009 22:41:17 GMT

We start off with Otter Creek's Winter Ale, which is infused with raspberries. We've had inconsistent luck with fruit-infused beer - could this one be different? Then we try out a small-batch brew from the minute Regenboog brewery in Belgium, their t'Smisje IPA+, which may really be a Strong Belgian Pale Ale.

Episode 005 - IPAs!!

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 17:09:55 GMT

It's IPA time, and we're talking about some beauties. We range from the perfect introductory IPA (Philadelphia Brewing Co.'s new Newbold IPA) to a serious Spring IPA (Magic Hat's seasonal "hI.P.A") to one of the most complex beers we've tried so far, Founders Brewery Centenial IPA.
