What’s going on here? New for 2010. I’ve split the beer reviews and music reviews into 2 separate videos. Treat it as one show with 2 segments. Hopefully this provides more clarity and a better overall experience. New site design changes in the coming weeks will make things easier to find too. Enjoy. –@schneidermike

People. This show starts off a little slow, but stick with it. These are two very unique beverages.

In this episode, I sit in front of the fabulous Christmas that my son picked to enjoy two fine winter offerings. The first is from a brewery that represents one of the two exciting things about Cleveland, Ohio (the other is leaving). Great Lakes Brewing Company Christmas Ale is a gem of an ale. The second comes from western New York’s Southern Tier Brewing Company and is delicious in its own right.

Great Lakes Christmas Ale is an A-
Southern Tier Old Man Winter is a B
