The Weekly Pint

I titled the episode before we went live, so cut me some slack. I didn't actually talk about burgers as much as I thought I would. Instead, I talked about label approvals, and drank some of the most terrible "stuff' that I have had in a very long time.

Part family vacation, part excuse to figure out if you can ACTUALLY drink in Gatlinburg and enjoy the process (hint, you can) - I just got back from a few days in the mountains, and while I have some great content coming from that - first we have to have a drink together!

It's a hot one out there, and it's put me in the mood for a good Gin and Tonic. What local gin makes the BEST gin and tonic, though? I'll roll through a nice little selection of them to figure out what MY pick is!

We're coming off a great Father's Day weekend, and then we were hit with the news that BrewDog was closing their taproom here in Cincinnati - actually, that it had already closed, more accurately. There's a lot to talk about, and some weird stuff to drink while we do!

What a wild week here in Cincinnati! Urban Artifact hosted their annual Missing Linck festival (or didn't), Woodburn is finally for sale, and Big Ash is getting rid of their pizza for LaRosa's? We'll talk about all of it! This show is brought to you by listeners just like you. If you like what you hear, you can go to http://www. TheGnarlyGnome.com/Support to help it keep growing. It&#3...

It's a jam-packed episode of your favorite virtual happy hour, the show that is NOT a show. We have a bunch of great topics to cover this week. From Garage Beer buying an arena football team to Braxton taking over the HiWire taproom at Factory 52 in Norwood. We even explore some "hard ice cream" - or is it beer? I have no idea... but we talk about it. This show is brought to you by l...

We're back home after a weekend of camping, which means... yeah - the show is using its "ISH" on the start time. We drink a beer from Founders in Columbus, and then try to figure out if it's good, or not. Quick and to the point, a great episode! This show is brought to you by listeners just like you. If you like what you hear, you can go to http://www. TheGnarlyGnome.com/Support...

There have been some taprooms around town that have closed their doors, and on this week's episode, we'll talk about WHY, and what we can learn from it. If that's not enough excitement, we'll also take a peek into what's allegedly been happening with Diageo and Casamigos Tequila lately. This show is brought to you by listeners just like you. If you like what you hear, you can g...

I'm a beer drinker at heart... so let's drink some beer together! (I won't like... the bucket of mystery is very close by just in case we get bored).This show is brought to you by listeners just like you. If you like what you hear, you can go to http://www. TheGnarlyGnome.com/Support to help it keep growing. It's also brought to you by the incredible folks at Dicks Potato Chips. Th...

I didn't want to be too boring with my celebration of Cinco De Mayo, and instead, I might have made a terrible error. I picked some of what might be the worst margarita imposters that were available. This will be... interesting. Luckily, we can talk about Awards, and about upcoming new releases from Rhinegeist. A silver lining I suppose! This show is brought to you by listeners just like you!...

Cincinnati has a drinking culture that I just can't get enough of, every week - I use this "show that isn't a show" as an excuse to find my way through that culture - one glass at a time! This show is brought to you by listeners just like you. If you like what you hear, you can go to http://www. TheGnarlyGnome.com/Support to help it keep growing. It's also brought to you by t...

West Coast IPA - it used to get beer drinkers talking because they were shocked by it's bold personality. Today, it gets people talking because so few places are making them, and some of the ones that are making soft, hazy versions of the style that just AREN'T West Coast IPAs. I crack open a new one from MadTree to see if they've done it justice. I talked about breweries here in town...

Things are nuts. Big breweries are supposedly floundering, small breweries are opening their doors, places may never open, and some projects just kind of disappear? How are we supposed to make sense of it all? This show is brought to you by listeners just like you. If you like what you hear, you can go to http://www.

The river is UP. In fact, the water is so high that a few of our breweries are either underwater or unable to open due to flooded streets. It's a great opportunity to remind us to support the places that we love, especially when things get rough out there. We kick the show off with a taste of some 'Orahovac' which is just as tasty as I remember it being. A bottle of sparkling Sake and...

I'm home alone... well... I have the Gnome-dog, but things are surprisingly quiet over here. It's a great excuse (and I'm always looking for one) to open up a beer and have a few drinks! It's not a show... but if it were, it would be a fun one! We started with 'The Schnappening' and cracked open a bottle of Darna's Amaro, which ended up being absolutely delicious! That...

It's been a hectic week over here at The Gnarly Gnome Tavern... and the best way I can think of to improve things is to hang out with YOU and have a drink! On this week's episode, we dive into some bitter wormwood liquor, then move on to some high proof moonshine that may or may not needed a little watered down. I talk about some crazy social media drama, and then wrap things up with some...

I LOVE Paddy's Day, but this year has been a little "hectic" - that doesn't mean that we won't find a way to celebrate together (with the help of 'Producer dAvId' - who's gotten a little bit of an upgrade. What resulted was... well... interesting. This show is brought to you by listeners just like you. If you like what you hear, you can go to http://www. TheGnarly...

This week, The Weekly Pint focuses heavily on Bockfest and how you should best experience the three-day festival. With that said... we are NOT drinking bock on the show. Instead, I dove into some peppermint schnapps, cracked open a Dogfish Head beer, and mixed up a little cuvee with beer and a canned cocktail. It's a great example of why the 'Show That Isn't A Show' is so much fun!

On this episode, we dove into the world of unique spirits, featuring a standout called Nixta Licor de Elote, a corn-based liquor that surprised me with its approachable flavor profile reminiscent of moonshine. I shared my tasting experience, highlighting its sweet and earthy notes, and how it could be a fun addition to any home bar. The main event of the night was an experiment with AI as my virtu...

I don't know why I'm doing this to myself... but tonight's drink is something... special. I'm diving into a big old can of something called Too Turnt, Daddy... It's going to be interesting! We'll talk about some of the recent problems with distribution, about the dangers of coffee, and of course we'll hang out together!

I HATE when a place closes. I suppose that we had some advance warning that this was a possibility, but it still hurts the soul a little bit. Time for some drink related healing. On this week's episode, we drink some Becherovka... and I had no idea what to expect when I cracked the bottle (as it turns out, it's delicious) - I also drank a can of West Side Brewing's Italian Style Pilsner. We check...

This is a wild one... New Ales up in Middletown, Ohio, made a mustard lager - and thanks to some friends - that's what we're going to drink on tonight's episode (after some... sorta schnapps) - it's all good to kick off the show where we talk about some Superbowl commercials of the past! This show is brought to you (sort of) by the incredible Dicks Potato Chips. If you want to see...

On this week's episode, we'll roll through some new label approvals, while we drink a couple beers from Swine City Brewing in Fairfield, Ohio. The make some weird stuff, so there's no telling how this one will go!

Holy smokes... I've known about this spot for a long time, and even tried a few of their products - but have never actually bellied up to see what it's all about for myself. We'll talk about it, try some fun wine, and maybe even rant about some local beer stores that might not deserve my beer money anymore. If you're new to The Weekly Pint - this isn't just a podcast, it's...

After a couple of rough weeks with some faulty technology in my house... we're back at it full force with a strange bottle of booze and a whole bunch of new beer labels to check out. Make sure you tune into the show live, every Monday night around 9:30pm!
