Kinger, Mark, Nally and Walshy are, The Crafty Crew. Four Irish craft beer fans. Join them every Friday, as they explore the background of different styles of beer, and taste test and rate a few samples.
We went all out this year, and got you, not one, but TWO Christmas specials... Find out who said what in the Quotes quiz, and more importantly.. Miracles do happen... Isn't that right Walshy?
ITS CHRISTMAAAAAAAAAAASSSSS!!!!!! And the crafty crew couldn't let it go by without a few Crafty Christmas Brews, a little game of Bingo and a few more digs at Walshy... Sure it wouldn't be Christmas otherwise
We somehow, someway, keep coming up with crafty crew banter, every single Friday... Kinger is off on his holidays and has lost the power of the edit...so why not join the lads in this wild west of an episode, as they head to the wilder west of Leitrim, for Bru Brewing's Double Panda Nero, and to the not so west but no less wild county Tyrone for Left Hand Brewings Wheels Gose Round. The season finale is packed full of interesting beers, juicy sourness and we may even find out about Walshy's favorite body part...
Walshy learns a new word this week, as we try The Cure Amber IPA from Inish Mac Saint, and Loop Head Pilsner from Western Herd... And that may be the most positive thing in the episode...
Its Donegal and Derry this week, on the Crafty Crews trip around the 32 counties of Ireland.. We have Merrytiller from Kinnegar and Double Pale Ale from Heaney, with some very mixed results... Also, any idea where Legland is??
We're staying in the North this week, as we try Existential Angst from Boundry Brewing in Co Antrim, and a Session IPA from Co Downs Beer Hut Brewing Company... We've definitely had worse weeks
Lets be honest, all that really matters this week is, can Kinger claim 3 quiz wins in a row?? Well, the beers are pretty important too.. We're trying out a cider from MacIvors (Armagh), and a NEIPA from Brehon Brewhouse (Monaghan).. With some surprising results
Mark takes over on accent duties for Cavan this week, finding more people/family members to throw shade at, Kinger(Big Juicy) is is still confused as to whether he likes one of the beers or not, Nally still hasn't won a quiz this season... And Walshy is flat out refusing to accept that ciders are a thing
Another week, another two counties ticked off the list.. Kinger manages to win himself a prize he DOES NOT WANT, and the Dunphy struggle continues for Walshy
We're staying in the West this week, as we try a Mescan from Mayo, and a White Hag from Sligo.. We got all Olympic for this weeks quiz, and what would you call your boat?
The journey to a brewery in each of Ireland's 32 counties continues, as we hit for Kerry and Galway this week... Strange things are afoot this season, is Walshy coming around to DIPA's?
Walshys dreaming of cider, Kingers actually coming around to stouts, and Nally, well he's just Nally
A day late, we know.. But its worth it, we promise.. Well.. The beers were anyway... We need to get a petition going to stop Kingers accents
The Crafty Crew bring their journey to the Midlands this week... Mark takes up the accent challenge for Westmeath, which entertains Nally and Walshy to no end
The lads trip around the countries craft breweries continues.. This week its Lineman from Dublin and Bru Brewery from Meath... Kinger took the two stouts strangely positively... While Mark and Walshy had a bit of a moment
Season 2 gets up and running again after a few false starts... With a stout from Carlow and a DIPA from Kildare.. The lads opinions might just surprise you...
Another week on The Crafty Crew Podcast, another two counties beers being judged, and unfortunately, another two accents being BUTCHERED by Kinger
The lads start their 32 county trip, for season 2 in Cork and Waterford.. Walshys fact is a bone of contention, but Kingers accents are, well, just plain bad
Explosive Cans, language lessons from Dr Walsh and relationship status reminders.... All make for the perfect season finale
Its the first of our lost episodes.. Just with different beers.. Mark becomes the Taskmaster, and a harsh one at that..
Did you know that lip gloss, Play-Doh and almost everything else in this world contains gluten... Turns out, so does beer funny enough... Well not these ones... Enjoy a few gluten free beers with the lads
Its Amber Ales this week... A disappointing episode for Mark, Walshy thinks he's drinking a sour, Nally regains his throne, and Kinger, well Kinger is just along for the ride really...
The lads are getting more and more competitive, and things take a 'Dark' turn for Nally... See what I did there?
It's the pinnacle of beers.. This is the word according to Nally... And to be fair, he's not too far wrong
Its THREE beers in one special episode, including a minty surprise.. Make of that what you will.. Happy St Patricks day to everyone..
Back at it after our break, with some Ciders.. Lets just say, our picks didn't change any minds... Then Kinger goes rogue trying to ban a certain style
Lets just say, it's been a strange week.. Technical gremlins won this round, but we'll be back stronger next week... With Ciders
'Double strength beer, for a double strength man'... Also, did you know know Double IPA meant Imperial I P A, and not actually double the strength... Well, apparently anyway... Mind blown
Time to go clean for a week, with some surprising ratings
Two Red Ales, From Two Different Bays, at opposite ends of the country.. Whats not to love about that?
We're feeling fruity this week, join us for some Tropical IPA's.. We mull over naming our pubs, and some of us brag about our Hawaiian shirt collections
This week, the lads are on stouts... Who doesn't love a good stout?
The lads try some sours... They taste better than they smell, honest
