I Like Beer the Podcast Ilikebeerthepodcast

The Jeffs are preparing for their most epic beer run yet, across the pond to the UK! To get ready, they sit down with Thomas Vosper, author of Historic Pub Crawls through London. Vosper shares his pub crawl history which has taken him to over 350 pubs throughout London. He also tells the Jeffs about some must-visit pubs not on the average tourist's list. From Big Ben to Sherlock Holmes, pub crawls in London offer a unique and rewarding way to view the city and learn its history.

All good things must come to an end. The ILB Team wraps up the Austin trip with more great beer stories. Altstadt Brewing's general manager, Manny Ramirez, tours through the most impressive brewery we've ever visited. What can a brewery be if one spares no expense? Altstadt Brewing, that's what. The trip finale was the solar eclipse, and by amazing good fortune ILB found itself at Lago Vista Brewing where they captured not only a fantastic eclipse experience, but one more great story from co-owners, Mark and Dylan. 

Four years in the making, Talent finally takes Influencer Jeff to the promised land: Jester King Brewery in Dripping Springs, Texas. Jennifer Harlan puts on one of her many hats to play host and beertender for the ILB Team. Harlan shares the Jester King story and an eleven beer line up! Jester King's commitment to taking risks and making the very best sours has extended to other styles. Did the visit live up to all the hype: yes. Yes it did. 

The ILB team finds themselves in a new beer mecca: Austin, Texas. The impressive Austin beer scene can be daunting at first, but thanks to the Austin Ale Trail guide they find their way around like pros. The passport not only lists out breweries and taprooms, it includes a number of deals and freebies for those willing to take on the adventure. The founder and creator of the Austin Ale Trail, Jordan Golembeski, gives the guys a primer on all things Austin-beer. 

After meeting at Burgeon's 7th anniversary party, the ILB team Austin road trip leads to Pinthouse Brewing. A commitment to family, fun and great beer makes this brewery an amazing must-stop in Texas. After touring the facility, we hear the Pinthouse story and a little about the heart and soul of this standout brewery. 

The I Like Wine team sits down with their favorite vintner, Steve Michaliszyn of Propaganda Wine. After enjoying a tasting, Steve plays an April Fools joke on the Jeffreys by pouring a BEER he brewed and aged in his wine barrels. After a little complaining, they trade their ascots for trucker hats and give it a try. The Doctor shares a fine selection of Wine or not a Wine.
