Description

It's our 150th episode and we wanted to bring you something
special. So this episode, we're previewing a beer, still unnamed
and unreleased, that will make some serious waves in the beer
world. The boys over at Mystic Brewery (the Ph.D. having,
MIT-graduating, high-gravity-brewing, fermentation-geek "boys"), an
upstart brewery in the Boston, MA area have started brewing some
big, BIG beers. We were able to convince Dr. Bryan Greenhagen,
founder and brewer, to send us some of what they're working on.
They sent us a bottle of their to-be-renamed "Entropy" (there was a
naming conflict with another beer), a four-times fermented 18%
whopper of a beer that without any real competition or precedent,
has no real formal style. Bryan was kind enough to categorize it
for us - a "Boston Cognac," jokingly concocted, but it's now in a
TGOB video, so it's real! :) ;Here's the thing - this eventual
seasonal release (once each fall) is so beautifully crafted, it's
hard to find fault with it. What an incredibly awesome surprise
this beer is, and if you like what we have to say about it and want
to get some this fall - get in line, we'll see you there.

A final, big thank you to everyone who watches Two Guys On Beer.
Reaching 150 episodes is a big milestone for us, and we hope you
stick around for 150 more!
