    Hello and Welcome to the Boozie Banter Podcast. We thought that we didn't have enough Brian's involved, so we reached out to the Territory Sales Manager for Sierra Nevada Brewing, Brian Debold. Here at Boozie Banter, we spend most of our time off the trail, deep in the woods and lost in our own thoughts. And drinking. It seems a good match. #Sierranevada #Paleale #hazylittlething #tripinthewoods Sierra Nevada Pale Ale - 2:40 Hazy Little Thing - 5:30 Brux - 20:00 Trip in the Woods: Grain, Grape & Wood - 36:00

    Mead is the focus of this episode as Matt and Bryan are joined by beer afficionado Jonathan. They pair this ancient style of booze with their modern proclivity for booziness as they taste mead from some of the most renowned producers in the US. #edenciders #boilerbrewing #moonlightmeadery #schrammsmeadery #eviltwinbrewing Bee Flustered - 3:40 Eden Ciders: Bee Flustered (2014 Harvest) Limited Edition Heirloom Blend ice cider aged in Superstition Meadery cherry mead rye whiskey barrels METHOD: Naturally cold-concentrated before fermentation in our Vermont winter weather. Arrested fermentation leaves residual sweetness. Ice cider made from heirloom apple varieties and aged 6 months in 2 barrels from Superstition Meadery - originally rye whiskey barrels that they used to aged their cherry mead. APPLE VARIETIES: Esopus Spitzenberg, Calville Blanc, Hudson's Golden Gem, Roxbury Russet, Blue Pearmain, Baldwin, Mcintosh, Empire, Ashmead's Kernel, Black Oxford, Reine de Reinette, Orleans TASTING NOTES: Tart cherry, baking spice, oloroso Meadow Foam - 11:10 Boiler Brewing: Meadow Foam Meadowfoam is a wildflower native to the Pacific Northwest whose flowers resemble foam in the ocean. But more importantly, the bees that feed from it create a rare honey that tastes like Marshmallow and Vanilla. So, we present to you Meadowfoam Mead! Three ingredients: Meadowfoam Honey, yeast, and water. The result is mead that is sweet and decadent with a Vanilla and Marshmallow character; perfect for your inner Marshmallow character! Cherry Decadent - 18:30 Moonlight Meadery: Cherry Decadent Cherry melomel that rested on a bed of roasted cacao. Over a lb of roasted cacao per gallon. Marionberry - 30:00 Schramm’s: Marionberry Marionberry is a melomel made purely from Willamette Valley Marion Blackberries. Like our ‘Blackberry’, Marionberry has a full, natural fruit acidity that is balanced by premium Orange Blossom honey sweetness to create an extremely flavorful mead. Very dark in color, the Marionberries provide a jammy, juicy fruit-forward character. This mead has great aging potential for many years, though it’s pure fresh fruit character may make it difficult to leave alone for long. Marionberry: blackberry developed by the USDA ARS breeding program in cooperation with Oregon State University. A cross between the 'Chehalem' and 'Olallie' varieties. It is the most common form of blackberry cultivated and accounts for over half of all blackberries produced in Oregon. Red, Black and Blue Bomb - 36:40 Boiler Brewing: Red, Black & Blue Bomb Red Raspberry, Black Raspberry, and Blueberry. Pre-game = Evil Twin, Raspberry Jelly Donut Even More Jesus.
