Sips, Suds, & Smokes

SUDS Episode – A brewery takeover with a flight from Blue Earl Brewing located in Smyrna, Delaware. Despite a tough start, there is some great beer in this flight.

SIPS – On this episode we discuss GlenAllachie, Mc Nairs, Torbhaig, BenRiach. Brent was running and skipping to record this episode, NOT. Hey, did you know there is a new distillery on Skye. That’s big news since the last one was built 190 years ago. Justin never fails and has added using a Tinder profile and Silly Putty as a Scotch tasting note. We ran out of words in our Thesaurus to say delicio...

CHATS – Our CHATS episode with Made Man Bob and Good ol Boy Harmeet as we continue to celebrate Season 10. We revisit the evolution of producing this show remotely and in a wide variety of situations. We have a real-life drug dealer and member of the mafia on this show. Who do you think almost finished their Ph. D. in Cardiology Pharmacology? Join us as we sip on some whisky and CHAT.

SUDS Episode – A brewery takeover with Other Half Brewing Company. Practically a cult following around NYC and even upstate. Dare we even speak the truth about these beers? Always. Cream of Oats? Is that like Cream of Wheat? Fascinating tales of first dates including one that lasted 4 days.

SMOKES Episode – One of the largest consumer cigar festivals is Big Smoke. This multi-city festival is a great place to meet some herf buddies, check out some new products, and press the flesh with industry icons. Which included us at this particular Big Smoke :-P Our lines were short but had plenty of quality fans. A broad range or was it girth, of cigars out of the grab bag.

SIPS – On this episode we discuss the 2021 Diageo Special Releases. Brent’s palate is in full arrest, call 911. Please refrain from enjoying olive oil with your Scotch. What’s your favorite sea creature? All the good stuff on one episode, again. There was no spotted dick involved in the production of this episode. Oh you’ll be smiling and dialin to find these before the episode is over.

SUDS Episode – We’re going to settle the debate, or did we not. Cans or bottles? We purchased bottles and cans of each a year ago. Some stayed at room temp and some were refrigerated for a year. We did the same thing a year later. The room temp bottles and cans were put in the refrigerator the night before the episode to chill them down. These were all tasted blind. If you are a brewer, distributo...

CHATS – We get to CHAT with Good ol Boy Kendall with a great conversation about life and beer. Kendall is nearly OG having joined us for 7 seasons. He is also a Nashville Hot Chicken Aficionado and you’ll get to hear a clip from that episode with Kendall. He fits so much of the content we all enjoy. Beyond beer he works in healthcare, helps to manage some of the best beer festivals in the US, beer...

SUDS  Episode – Oh cider, how do we love thee, let me count the ways with these 5 excellent choices. We embrace our own version of opera man. Really he’s available for birthday parties as well. Don’t let the fact that you can’t pronounce the name of these products to not choose them. We help Canada with a shortage of Maple Syrup and finding a national sport they can win. Curling for Canada!!! Grea...

SIPS – On this episode we discuss Irish whiskey from Waterford and Writers Tears from Walsh Whiskey. An interesting approach of a number of whiskeys all made from the same strain of Irina barley grown in different areas around Ireland. Brent lobbied for 7 weeks to read the SIPS ratings as the drunken leprechaun. The best 8 min discussion on the definition of “running.”
