That classification is given to anything above a pale ale and below a barley wine. Coopers is a huge brewery that is public, but still almost completely family owned. Johnny and Dave differ on the ratings, but agree it might age well.

Since 1990, this beer has won 14 Gold and 1 Silver medal from the Great American Beer Fest and World Beer Championships. Is it worth the gold it's been receiving?

(Sam Adams Boston Lager is the most widely known Vienna style lager in the US.) This particular lager is named after Eliot Ness, the famous leader of The Untouchables, and it is both ironic and fitting. While Ness spent much of his career enforcing prohibition, he was also well known to appreciate a libation or two. As if that weren't enough of a reason to put him on a bottle, the mother of the owners of Great Lakes was Eliot Ness's stenographer! What's that? How's the beer? It would make Eliot Ness proud, we think.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/brewing">brewing</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/cleveland">cleveland</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/company">company</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/eliot">eliot</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/erie">erie</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/great">great</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/lager">lager</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/lake">lake</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/lakes">lakes</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ness">ness</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ohio">ohio</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/style">style</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/twoguysonbeer">twoguysonbeer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/vienna">vienna</a></p> Mon, 16 Nov 2009 23:50:01 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/179/ ale beer bilotta brewing cleveland company dave eliot erie great johnny johnnynines lager lake lakes martorana ness ohio philadelphia style tgob twoguysonbeer vienna tgob Episode 118 - Great Lakes Eliot Ness http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/178/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/178/" title="Episode 117 - Great Lakes Commodore Perry" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_b04b2836_v1.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Episode 117 - Great Lakes Commodore Perry" border="0" /></a></p> 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.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/brewing">brewing</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/cleveland">cleveland</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/commodore">commodore</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/company">company</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/erie">erie</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/great">great</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ipa">ipa</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/lake">lake</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/lakes">lakes</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ohio">ohio</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/perry">perry</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/twoguysonbeer">twoguysonbeer</a></p> Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:53:02 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/178/ ale beer bilotta brewing cleveland commodore company dave erie great ipa johnny johnnynines lake lakes martorana ohio perry philadelphia tgob twoguysonbeer tgob Episode 117 - Great Lakes Commodore Perry http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/177/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/177/" title="Episode 116 - Great Lakes Burning River" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_50facc80_v1.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Episode 116 - Great Lakes Burning River" border="0" /></a></p> We're starting a series of four episodes dedicated to the wonderful liquid coming out of the Great Lakes Brewing Company, in Cleveland, Ohio.

A fantastic style, it celebrates the final harvest of the season. The Bateman's Combined Harvest Ale, from the George Bateman & Sons company and the Salem Bridge Brewery, really goes after the grain, including barley, oats, wheat, and rye! We often only get a single grain, let alone four! Despite that, it's only 4.7% ABV. Brewed in the Burton-Upon-Trent style, using hard water to enhance flavor, this impressed Dave and really impressed Johnny.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bateman">bateman</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/brewery">brewery</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bridge">bridge</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/burton-upon-trent">burton-upon-trent</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/combined">combined</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/david">david</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/george">george</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/guys">guys</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/harvest">harvest</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/multigrain">multigrain</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/on">on</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/salem">salem</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/sons">sons</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/two">two</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/uk">uk</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/wainfleet">wainfleet</a></p> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 21:06:02 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/174/ ale bateman beer bilotta brewery bridge burton-upon-trent combined dave david george guys harvest johnny johnnynines martorana multigrain on philadelphia salem sons tgob two uk wainfleet tgob Episode 113 - Bateman's Combined Harvest Ale http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/173/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/173/" title="Episode 112 - Slaghmuylder Witkap Pater Tripel" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_d3b84f8b_v1.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Episode 112 - Slaghmuylder Witkap Pater Tripel" border="0" /></a></p> Family owned since 1860, this beer was rated the #8 best beer in the world by the New York Times, and is often called a "gourmet beer." An abbey style triple, this beer has specific pouring instructions, where you are supposed to pour gently so as to NOT get any sediment in your glass. It's triple-fermented, although it only ends up at 7.5% ABV. Do we agree with the NY Times that this is one of the top ten beers in the world?

The Imperial White is a Whitbier (wheat beer), but this one boasts a 10.3% ABV, which is enormous for a wheat. Brewed with ale yeasts, the beer can be brewed at higher temperatures. While maintaining some of the hints of a traditional wheat - smooth, banana like flavors and hints of citrus, this one reminds us of a Belgian double or triple with its amber color and noticeable caramel notes and high-level heat. The resulting mixed-style of this beer is actually fantastic, and we are fans.

Rye beers have a very long history, and was an important ingredient in beer up until the 5th century AD.

For the past several hundred years, the Orval monastary made their money making and selling cheese and bread. The modern brewery, started in 1931 and employing all lay-people, still takes all procedes to pay their employees, upkeep of the monastary itself, or charitable causes. To be called a Trappist beer, a monastary cannot make a profit on the sale of their beer, and therefore charitable organizations benefit. Orval, using dry hopping and infusion brewing, is a lot of fun to drink.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/belgian">belgian</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/belgium">belgium</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/brewing">brewing</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/david">david</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dry">dry</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/guys">guys</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/hopping">hopping</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/infusion">infusion</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/italy">italy</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/monastary">monastary</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/monks">monks</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/on">on</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/orval">orval</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/pale">pale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/trappist">trappist</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/two">two</a></p> Thu, 27 Aug 2009 19:52:07 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/155/ ale beer belgian belgium bilotta brewing dave david dry guys hopping infusion italy johnny johnnynines martorana monastary monks on orval pale philadelphia tgob trappist two tgob Episode 099 - Orval Trappist Ale http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/154/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/154/" title="Episode 098 - Jever Original Friesland Pils" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_d3f42961.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Episode 098 - Jever Original Friesland Pils" border="0" /></a></p> Diedrich Konig founded the Jever brewery, or the "Friesisches Brauhaus zu Jever" over 160 years ago, in 1848.

Now Strathaven Ales and the Craighill Brewery are trying to recapture that uniqueness in their Kelpie Seaweed Ale. They add seaweed and organic barley to the mash tun, and create a Scottish gruit beer. It turns out the beer is very good and easy to drink, but any unique flavor from the seaweed is just a bit too subdued.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ales">ales</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bladderwrack">bladderwrack</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/brewery">brewery</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/craighill">craighill</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/david">david</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/gruit">gruit</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/guys">guys</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/kelpie">kelpie</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/on">on</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/scottish">scottish</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/seaweed">seaweed</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/strathaven">strathaven</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/two">two</a></p> Mon, 24 Aug 2009 18:09:02 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/152/ ale ales beer bilotta bladderwrack brewery craighill dave david gruit guys johnny johnnynines kelpie martorana on philadelphia scottish seaweed strathaven tgob two tgob Episode 096 - Kelpie Seaweed Ale http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/151/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/151/" title="Episode 095 - Stone Levitation Ale" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_477dccc4.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Episode 095 - Stone Levitation Ale" border="0" /></a></p> Stone, founded in 1996, is pretty well known for their hoppy beers. Their Levitation Ale - technically an American Red/Amber Ale - has some nice floral overtones, which are eventually subdued by the "big hoppy characteristic..." A good overall hopped American Amber, great for the summer, Stone has another winner on their hands.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/amber">amber</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/american">american</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/california">california</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/david">david</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/greg">greg</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/guys">guys</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/hops">hops</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/koch">koch</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/levitation">levitation</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/on">on</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/steve">steve</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/stone">stone</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/two">two</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/wagner">wagner</a></p> Sun, 23 Aug 2009 14:13:01 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/151/ ale amber american beer bilotta california dave david greg guys hops johnny johnnynines koch levitation martorana on philadelphia steve stone tgob two wagner tgob Episode 095 - Stone Levitation Ale http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/150/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/150/" title="Episode 094 - Anchor Summer Beer" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_dc8cd6e0.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Episode 094 - Anchor Summer Beer" border="0" /></a></p> Claiming to be the first American wheat beer ever produced, the Anchor Summer Beer is 50% wheat malt, yet oddly, completely filtered. We know that Anchor is one of the oldest craft breweries in the US, dating back to at least 1896. Unfortunately, that alone is not enough to make a beer awesome, and this one falls just a little short in our eyes. Anchor remains one of our favorite breweries, but this beer is not, in our opinions, their biggest win.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/anchor">anchor</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/david">david</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/guys">guys</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/on">on</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/seasonal">seasonal</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/summer">summer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/two">two</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/wheat">wheat</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/yeast">yeast</a></p> Thu, 20 Aug 2009 16:13:03 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/150/ ale anchor beer bilotta dave david guys johnny johnnynines martorana on philadelphia seasonal summer tgob two wheat yeast tgob Episode 094 - Anchor Summer Beer http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/149/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/149/" title="Episode 093 - Dogfish Head Raison D'Etre" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_cf14bbf4.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Episode 093 - Dogfish Head Raison D'Etre" border="0" /></a></p> The Raison D'Etre - or, "reason for being" - from Dogfish Head is a Belgian Strong Dark ale made with beet sugar, green raisins, and Belgian yeasts. While not either of our favorites from Dogfish Head, it impresses Johnny more. Either way, we love the experimentation that continues to come out of Dogfish Head.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/" >tgob</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/ale">ale</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beer">beer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/beet">beet</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/belgian">belgian</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/bilotta">bilotta</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/calagione">calagione</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dark">dark</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dave">dave</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/david">david</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/dogfish">dogfish</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/green">green</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/guys">guys</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/head">head</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnny">johnny</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/johnnynines">johnnynines</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/martorana">martorana</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/on">on</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/philadelphia">philadelphia</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/raisins">raisins</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/sam">sam</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/strong">strong</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/sugar">sugar</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/tgob">tgob</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/tags/two">two</a></p> Wed, 19 Aug 2009 22:07:01 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/tgob/videos/149/ ale beer beet belgian bilotta calagione dark dave david dogfish green guys head johnny johnnynines martorana on philadelphia raisins sam strong sugar tgob two tgob Episode 093 - Dogfish Head Raison D'Etre
