The Beer Engine

Everyone's favorite time of the day / week / month / year! It's time for a new Beer Engine Pod! Today, Tony hunts for JFK Jr. in the outback, Griff drinks stout and eats candy, and the fellas finish their much loved "Ultimate Six-Pack to Send To Your Friend So They Have Something to Drink While They Watch Old Seasons of Love Island UK ™" segment." Also, a review of Griff's Tavour highlights and a...

This again. Blech, what are we doing? Oh yeah it’s a podcast! And it’s mostly about beer, I think? Well today’s episode is feeling a little special because it’s “Griff’s Day Out!” The man with the fake heart gets asked about his fake rod and narrowly avoids death by magnets. Then, the guys talk exploding gloop cans and single hop pale ales - wow am I reading these notes I took right? Those seem li...

Oh no! Another Beer Engine! And with Tony oh God the vengeance is at hand! Repent! Repent! Well I hope you're repented enough because it's time to move on to the show notes. Tony rejoins the fun after a couple weeks away doing a little "fascist-smooching" as they call it in some colloquial Australian dialects. Griff puts Tony through his paces though, with a fresh new game called "This, that or th...

Wow, it's another one of these? Does the pain never end? NO! Tony is away so Griff steps up to the plate to ensure that no one forgets about us. I'm sure it sounds great and normal! Griff reviews some beers he had this week and takes us into the Untappd netherworld to see what the rest of the world thinks. Then Griff revs up the "BRUX Capacitor" to take us to the Best Beers of 2010 and give us his...

Oh, well hello. Didn't expect to see you around these parts again, what with, you know, the "unpleasantness" (aka the previous 13 hours of talking). Here, have some more! Today, the guys briefly talk about failed NY politicians before rolling into the good stuff: beer! We introduce a new segment, tentatively (permanently) called "Ultimate 6-pack!" The guys guess ratings on each other's classics an...

Untappd was an application created by a guy named Greg about 10 years ago, and Griff has been on it for the entire time. Damn that's crazy! Today the boys (your favorite boys, the best and nicest boys) discuss their rating rubric! Yes, rubrics! I love those. Also, someone drinks some blue beer, someone goes full pastry on a cream ale, and 50 beers "fall off the back of a truck" and into someone's...

Welll, well, well. Look who's come crawling back? That's what I imagine you are saying when your feed updates and yet another hour of our crap shows up. Hey it's not crap! And be nice because we have a guest, you jerk! Now you are beating me up for that and I'm crying and screaming! Anyways we do have a guest as Kelly joins the show. She talks about her life growing up on the fringes of the beer w...

Who's that knocking at my door? Oh man, it's the disembodied voices of Griff and Tony, my favorite podcast hosts! This week, Griff can't get drunk anymore, Tony continues living a normal life, and the guys compare notes on one of the worst foods ever. Then, another new segment - it's "what's in Griff's Tavour box?!" Is it IPA? Is it koolaid? Only time will tell! ★ Support this podcast ★

Hi. Wow everything is going terribly! Good news, the fellas take a brief respite from the daily atrocities to talk to their friend and podcast legend, Brian Mollica. Brian breaks down life as a Knicks fan in the age of The Last Dance and Griff compares his favorite Bulls to his favorite sandwiches. Later, the guys take a trip into the underbelly of Untappd to understand the perspective of some bee...

Wow, has it been a week already? I guess each day really is a smaller % of your life. Kind of a wild thing to think about that I think I heard on a sitcom. This week, the show starts with a big announcement (hint: "Call Her Tony"). The guys do their first and probably last "Old News" segment about some thicc pizza, and then Griff talks about the world's first AI-generated brewery. Finally, the con...

How’s everyone doing out there? Well the boys are doing OK I guess. In this romp of an episode, the guys, clearly craving human contact more than anything else, grasp around for even the potential of interaction with a little mailbag segment that lacked both mail and any real questions or desire for a response. Oh well, sorry! They talk about surprising beers showing up on market shelves and beer...

Hey! Have you seen that show “Celebrity Watch Party?” Well this is not that, because these two guys are ugly, poor and smart! It is content though and  we made it all by ourselves. The fellas manage to get out from in front of the television to then go ahead and talk about things that they saw on the television, including Tiger King, the Final Table and other cooking contests. Now I’m not sure how...

Well, well, well. Look who decided to show their faces around here. Not these guys because it's audio only and it's another Beer Engine Podcast! This week there was some discussion about Griff re-entering the supply chain of cheap cheese byproduct and robot penis cheese like substances. The guys review the delivery service of one Charles Entertainment Cheese and one of the hosts says something cre...

Hey look, it’s another episode of the Beer Engine Pod! Griff and Tony have hoisted themselves out of the quarantine gutter, and they’ve dragged someone along with them! Rob aka Photoman joins in the relative “fun” to rebuke Griff’s claims of a higher understanding of martial artistry. Griff drinks a hazy IPA named for riding the subway, and the fellas embark on a meaningful discussion drawing batt...

What's up? Not much! OK cool - I haven't talked to anyone in a while so this is new to me also! Well gotta go write these show notes for something I did a few months ago. Thanks, nice meeting you! Sorry I said that I'm not used to ending conversations right now, or starting them. It was weird! On this episode Tony and Griff discuss some less prolific styles of beer like....hazy IPAs! If you like t...

Content! It's here! The boys are graced with the presence of one of the internet's most prolific content generators, Brian Mollica, to talk about, what else? The Coronavirus! From the safety of their homes, the boys get depressed together and virtually hug it out for a while. Then, they get excited for the glorious reopening of the US economy, and as I write this a month or so later, it's not so f...

Hey! It's the era of corona! But that doesn't mean Griff can't break out some of his old bits. On this one, the guys talk about getting produce brought to their car and beer brought to their house. Griff dusts off his famous "apricot" gag (timestamp not included) - which of course has stood the test of time. I hope these quarantine podcasts are all crystallized in amber, Jurassic Park-style or els...

So it’s our first official show, grab a stool and join us at the bar! We talk about some beer, we have a Griff beer review and Tony does some funny talking. Also, Griff jumps in on the show notes half way through! As stay-at-home orders grip the world, the fellas talk over what's going on in their lives, and reminisce about better times when they were allowed outside. Also, a one year late review...
