We finally get to wrap up this Premier League season and see just how bad our predictions were. Blake lost the bet with Ferris that Arsenal would finish on top of Man U, so he has to drink the 3-year-old SnapperHead IPA. It did not go well. We also look at the MLS is Back tournament and Arsenal's win over Chelsea in the FA Cup. - Love the beer, cherish the game. The Brewtiful Game Subscribe to us...

The Premier is finally back from its pandemic pause, and we already have a champion. In just a few short matches, Liverpool is on top, Chelsea, Man City, and Man United have come out strong. Arsenal is…..having problems. We talk all the Premier League news during this scrunched-up schedule so far, as well as look at Bayern Munich who has just become Bundesliga champions.

We are back, but not together, as we adhere to the current social distancing standard. Ron and Ferris call into the studio to chat a bit about soccer news. But let's be honest, there isn't much. So we go into some craft beer (good) news, and maybe get distracted by discussing Netflix's TIGER KING. We are doing our best to keep sane in this wild time of our history, and we hope you can forget about...

Well, we are here with a new episode in very weird times. We here at the Brewtiful Game hope you are able to shelter safely in place and stay healthy. And for those of you who can't because you are on the frontline of essential jobs, we very much thank you. We hope we can provide some distraction to your shelter in place days. So, what to talk about in these trying times? On the soccer front, we l...

In this episode, we talk about the opening week of MLS, plus Ron and Blake explain how wrong Ferris is to support the VAR decision that went against Everton in their match against Manchester United. Will they convince Ferris that VAR is continually being paid off by Man United? Tune in to find out. The beer reviewed in this episode is from Damm Brewery, the Estrella Inedit from Barcelona, Spain. T...

We are all three in the studio for this one as we look at the last week of Premier League matches. Blake and Ferris are feeling about their respective teams, Arsenal and Man United, so a Moo Thunder bet is made. The big topic of the week was VAR and it's lack of consistency. It's enough to drive a fan of the beautiful game to drink. Speaking of… Ron just got back from Canada, so he brings in the b...

We are all back in the same continent, if not the same studio, and take a look at how things are shaking down in the Premier League. Or is it just officially Liverpool's League now? We also take a look at the rest of the European leagues before looking ahead to the USWNT and the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics. Beer of the pod comes from local brewery Crooked Can. It's a tasty lager called Florida Suns...

It's our favorite soccer day of the year, Boxing Day! We take a look at all the storylines developing as we fly through these festive fixtures and check in on how Everton and Arsenal are looking with their new managers. Our holiday beers of the pod are an imperial eggnog cream ale called Nogged Out from Intercostal Brewing here in Florida, and Bush de Noël from Dubuisson. - Love the beer, cherish...

We are back to look at how the Premier League storylines are shaping up, or for Arsenal, how it's all falling apart. We also take a look at all the other top-flight leagues in Europe. For our beer reviews, Blake brought in a Tangerine Space Machine from New Holland Brewing, while Ron introduced us to Junky IPA from a Beijing craft brewery. - Love the beer, cherish the game. The Brewtiful Game   Su...

It's a special pod. What could bring Ron all the way back from Beijing to join us live in the studio for a special episode? Why none other than the Special One himself, José Mourinho returning to the Premier League. José takes up a good chunk of our Premier League talk before Blake and Ferris bemoan the state of their clubs Arsenal and Man United respectively. - Love the beer, cherish the game. Th...

After the Premier League international break, we are back to look at how the storylines are continuing. Tottenham squeaks by with a draw and Man United nets a much-needed point from Liverpool. The race at the top gets a bit tighter. Then it's time to talk MLS playoffs and the wild opening matches that occurred. The NWSL Final is set, and we take a quick look around the rest of the leagues in Europ...

After a break, the boys of the Brewtiful Game are back to talk to some soccer. We cover the crazy storylines of the Premier League seeing two mighty teams of Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspurs fall from grace, along with the rise of other clubs into the top 6. From there we predict the outcomes of the MLS and NWSL Playoffs. Ron calls in from China, and we have our first intercontinental beer...

Premier League is rolling along, and our weekend mornings are so much happier for it. In this episode, the boys look at these first few weeks of Premier League and see if trends are already emerging. We also add a segment that takes a quick look at the other leagues in Europe. We had two beers of the pod, one for us here, and one for Ron in Beijing. Here in the USA, Blake and Ferris had a listener...

The Premier League is back, and we couldn't be happier. We discuss a bit of the opening weekend and give our predictions of the season ahead in the season preview. Ron calls in from Beijing to give us some historical info on the newly promoted clubs, and we get some insight into his overseas adventures. Also, Ferris brings in signed goodies from his time at the MLS All-Star match in Orlando. Speak...

  We were finally able to sit down and discuss the final of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup. Spoiler alert: we have a lot of gushing things to say about the USWNT. I think we were still just as excited as we were when the final whistle blew. From the highs of victory, we go the other route and discuss the Gold Cup final. In this special episode, we send Ron off in style before work takes him to Be...

In this episode, we talk World Cup, Gold Cup, the Copa, and Frank Lampard becoming the new Chelsea FC manager. Beer reviewed in this episode was provided by Ferris, and he threw us some curve balls. First up was the American Red Lager from Budweiser (definitely the first time they have been on the show), and then a crazy porter from Florida craft brewery Due South. It was their Mexican Standoff; a...

The World Cup is on a roll and we are so excited to talk about it. A few surprises and questions about VAR in the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup give us a lot to cover. Plus we look at the U.S. Men's National Team in the Gold Cup and also go over what's happening in the Copa America. The beer review of the pod was brought in by Ron. It's the 1554 dark lager from New Belgium Brewing. Ron educates us o...

It's time for the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup. In this episode, recorded on June 7, 2019, we make our tournament predictions and take a look at all the national teams involved. The beer of the pod was a lager form Copperpoint Brewing located in Boyton Beach, FL. Ferris was responsible for the beer review this week and did his usual search for a Florida craft beer. - Love the beer, cherish the game...

We are back after a bit of a break to discuss the finals of Europe. Some (all?) of these finals were not the most exciting, but they do perhaps give us a glimpse of the Premier League moving forward. Especially when it comes to concerning the dominance of Liverpool and Manchester City. Our beer review this episode is a listener beer sent in by a lover of nerdom the speaks fluent Blake. The beer is...

The end of the 2018-2019 Premier League season is upon us. We celebrate not only a fun season but our three year anniversary of starting the podcast. After watching the trophy get lifted, we jumped into the studio to reflect on all that this wonderful season had given us. During the show, we also look at how bad or accurate some of our predictions were, and sum up our favorite moments of the seaso...
