Beercade Radio

Beercade Radio is BACK, again! We kick off our inaugural Summer IPA Special with Stone Ripper from Stone Brewing and Happy Place APA from Third Space Brewing. We briefly discuss the recently announced Call of Duty Black Ops 4, share some quick thoughts about Destiny 2, and talk about the internet meme that has become Fortnite. Rate us on iTunes, weigh in on the discussion on twitter @BeercadeRadio and as always, Game Responsibly!

We continue our tour of Karben 4 with Lady Luck, an Imperial Red Ale that Ethan enjoys more than Spencer. Ethan talks about how many people are drunk at any given moment. And you get to know us a little better as we talk about our history of video gaming and how we made the jump from console gaming to PC gaming. We end the show with a discussion of the Pros of both PC gaming and console gaming. We hope you guys enjoy! Remember to follow us on Twitter @BeercadeRadio and send us a friend request on Untappd. And as always, Game Responsibly.

We wrap up our first visit with Karben4 Brewing with their smoked porter, Night Call. There's another edition of Name That Game. Ryan Koga, the brew master and owner at Karben4 joins the pod in our first ever interview to talk about how he got into brewing beer, his history and passion for video games, and the philosophy he brings to his brewing process. And finally we have the most controversial discussion in the history of the Beercade to date: Does a 1v1 challenge in video games actually prove anything? Thanks for listening and remember, #GameResponsibly.

Better late than never! We continue the brewery tour of Karben4 by drinking Block Party, an Amber Ale that is sure to please. We introduce our first guest host of the pod, a long time friend and beer freak, Jon, the resident Asian of the pod. The podcast gets political for the first time (kind of...) and there is a special edition of 'Name That Game'. Enjoy and remember, Game Responsibly!

We continue our tour of Founders Brewing Co. with a review of Breakfast Stout. We introduce our new segment, Name That Game. Finally, we talk about the history of video games, focusing on the evolution of video game consoles and how the growth of the video game industry has lead to games being over hyped.

We kick off our first brewery tour with Backwoods Bastard from Founders Brewing Co. in Grand Rapids, MI. We discuss how beer is made. We also talk about the rise of streaming and how video game broadcasts have lead to the boom of competitive eSports. Remember: Game Responsibly

We start the month with our second brewery tour featuring Karben4. We review Fantasy Factory, an IPA that has a Deagle toting cat standing on the back of a fire breathing unicorn. Ethan struggles with this week's episode of Name That Game. And we end the show with a discussion about the video game industry's recent trend towards digital games and content as well as the increased presence of microtransactions.
