This Week in Georgia Beer

On this week’s show…

Drinkin’ beer for your Big Game party.  The Big Game is coming up soon and statistics show Y’all are going to drink a lot of beer.  In preparation for your watch party, we pit some “drinkin’ beers” against each other and choose our champion party beverage.  Brian shares some stats on what people eat and drink on Super Bowl Sunday and the crazy things people bet on during the game.  Unfortunately, our scheduled guest had a delayed flight and couldn’t join us, so you get all the Tim and Brian you can handle on this episode.

Next week: Our annual show from the Atlanta Cask Ale Tasting where we talk with a few of Georgia’s upcoming breweries.  Join us as we chat with The Bold Monk, Schoolhouse Beer, and Halfway Crooks.  Plus we discuss cask ale, festivals, and traveling the world for beer with ACAT founder Owen Ogletree, and an extra segment with UK bee writer Rob Macardle, Editor for CAMRA’s Leicester Drinker.

beer for super bowl party
We sample 8 beers this week and pick the one we’d most like to see a cooler stocked with at our Big Game party.  The competition was close, but there were no bad calls here.
