Show 49 - AleSmith Beer Show
We drink some smooth beers from AleSmith Brewing Company out of San Diego CA and listen to Luther Allison and Duwayne Burnside belt out some great blues. Our preshow sampling put us in great form for this show. Rick does a mild (some would say amateurish) rant. Dick relates his journey to the Annual Cooper-Young festival. Join us as the beer www.namikeystonepa.org/klonopin/ starts talking (yes, we make grandiose plans for the future!) and get some Christmas ideas of a musical nature.

We are getting Stoned on this show (cheap attempt at humor there) with some fantastic beer from Stone Breweries courtesy of the recent visit to their anniversary celebration by Rick. We have a lot of interviews from this celebration along with our podcast buddies from the Beer Report and Dude Night. Add in some music from longtime blues artist Robin Trower (yes, that same Robin Trower) and you have a great show.
Join us as we get our hops on. This show features a great selection of hoppy beers, both British and American style IPAs. We talk with our pal James Spencer of Basic Brewing Radio about hops and how they can really make, or break, a beer style. Semi-scary, but beer-related story about Hop Devils (listen with the lights out). Musical guest du jour is Little Milton, a fantastic blues and soul legend. Some more chili discussion ensues, and we have some spicy man-style show snacks to go with our hoppy beers.
Join us for some Polish Beer. We sample some great (but unpronounceable) beers brought to us by our FOS (Friend Of Show) Alan Young. Polish sausage is on the menu, beer reduced mustard and some great (non-Polish) blues.
We wind up the Friday night festivities and talk with some other teams. And we finish up our beer-soaked journey high atop a booth overlooking the Mississippi.
