Beer Guys Radio in the Studio

Wow, we’ve been at this thing for five years now…

The world of 2016 was a different time. There were a lot fewer breweries than there are now, a lot more IBUs in our IPAs, and a total lack of global pandemics. Good times.

When we started Beer Guys Radio we intended to be a local show covering the Georgia beer scene. Folks seemed to enjoy our chatter and asked us to cover beer outside the state and we started getting more radio stations across the country. With that push we changed the format to cover beer all over the world.

We got the squad back together for this episode. Beer Guys Radio’s original co-host and co-founder Aaron Williams and Becky Smalls were in the studio to reminisce as well as look ahead. We talk about how BGR got its start, the trends we liked (and didn’t like) over the last five years, some of our travel adventures, and what we think the future holds.

Thanks for taking this ride with us! We hope to keep this bus going for a good, long time.

CHEERS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Beer Guys Radio 5th Anniversary Cheers

The Beer List

We tried to curate this list to be meaningful to our 5th anniversary so here’s a little extra info on why these beers made the cut for this show.

  • Creature Comforts Tropicalia
    Why: Trop was a benchmark beer for our local beer scene in Georgia.  It upped the bar for beers that came after it and we saw a lot of great new breweries and existing breweries really up their game.
  • 2013 Gouden Carolus Cuvée Van De Keizer
    Why: I was introduced to this beer in 2016 and immediately fell in love.  I’ve hoarded several and always look for a special time to open one.
  • Monday Night Garage Club Level 5
    Why: Level 5, 5 years.  Easy peasy.
  • 2016 Cigar City Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout
    Why: Because 2016.  Also, it’s delicious.
  • 2019 MAZURT RIS ASW Bourbon Barrel
    Why: MAZURT is technically a homebrewer but they have won medals at Hunahpu’s Day and were one of the top rated breweries in the US per Untappd.  We ran into our friend Hamp of MAZURT and he gifted us a bottle, so we had to drink it.
