Customer Reviews
Lots of good information
Okay, to those that might have left "1-star" reviews, if you've got 40 years of experience and you're all knowledgable I guess you don't need to listen to this show (why would you be listening to a show if you're that informed already? Dunno). But, if you're the casual beer enthusiast that wants to learn more about beers or about specific beers then subscribe.
I've had Mike on our show (everydaydrinkers) and he always brings great knowledge, incite and, most of all, opinions that are helpful to those trying to select their next brew. My only suggestion: Bring more passion and enthusism, get excited and yell a bit :) I may go over the top in that area, but I think the only void in the show is the power and potency of the spoken word. Bring the energy! BAM!
Good effort, but...
These guys like beer, and I respect that. But their knowledge of craft beer doesn't go much farther then knowing what they think tastes good. If you are looking for in depth beer knowledge, this is not the podcast for you.
Makes me want to drink beer!
I literally stopped at a liquor store on my way home from work while listening to the podcast so I could try the beer being reviewed in the Oktoberfest episode.
