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

Monk’s Blood was a B
Old Habit was a C

Episode 30: Southern Tier and Great Lakes Winter Offerings

schneidermike — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 16:54:51 +0000

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

On Location: Harpoon Brewery

schneidermike — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 19:43:31 +0000

Our company went to the Harpoon Brewery to take in the 5:30 club experience. Appearing are Graham “Thirsty Chicken” Nelson, Amy Moriarty and Allen & Gerritsen’s CEO (and martini man) Andrew Graff.

The treat was talking to Jules the bartender. He is highly knowledgeable about the products and process.

The best part is how I talk about not talking about the finish, right after I talk about the finish. What I meant is that I do not refer to a finish as “lingering, crisp, sweet or dry”. I use language that you and I care about, not beerspeak that no one understands.
