Game of Beers

The boys hang out at Coper's Junior and pound Irish beer and liquor while watching basketball and talking about March Madness.

The boys show up to Breakside Dekum to chug beers out of bowls. Insanely stupid, or is it???

The bad boys of beer are back!!! After the end of year hiatus the boys are fresh and no one is safe from ridicule. After going over their new beers resolutions they endure rapid fire question and answer session, aka The Hop Corner™.

The boys are hanging on by a thread but still filling you in on the action

The boys meet up with Slick to go over the first night of action at the great american beer festival

A quick segment, the boys talk about their trip from PDX to Denver, review a couple beers they picked up at Mr. B's in Denver, and preview the night they're about to ruin for the mile high city

The boys are joined by Denver Expert Miguel to discuss all the GABF spots to hit up, breweries, taprooms, burrito joints, and pizza places. Later Brown Padres goes on a long rant about fresh hop beers, don’t miss it.

The boys are all back together again to deliver all original segments, skits, and characters. We are flattered by the imitators who steal our ideas, but we are the innovators. This week the boys pound tons of beer and wings while talking about beer and wings, it’s glorious.

The boys are joined by Jonah back at the Amsterdam House after dark, where they lament on IPA’s of the past and the insanely stupid “National IPA” day. Later they review some beer cocktails and are surprised to find that they enjoy most of them.

The boys are back from the Amsterdam house to applaud the owner of Jester King, who posted a blog article about a brewery he collaborated with selling out to lame-ass skunk king Heineken. Later on they go over Paste Magazine’s big ass IPA list and talk just the right amount of schitt.

The boys are back in ‘Lil Reno to talk about band and celebrity beer collaborations. Later in the afternoon they start bitching about what grinds their gears in both beer and life. If you like gluten free beer and barrel aged stouts in the summer don’t listen, or at least proceed with caution. Gene does have an epic rant about hot weather in PDX though, so maybe it’s worth it.

The boys are back from the Amsterdam house, this time with special guest @CraftBeerAtlas of the infamous band Cedars and Crows. They celebrate the release of 3 Way, and then talk a bunch of schitt about beer festivals.

The boys (and the microphone unfortunately) battle the wind while tasting a lineup of Tree House beers brought back from the ne by Perry. The chug segment features the special release of zima, and later in the show the boys bitch about waiting in line for beer.

The boys discuss beer clichés heard in tap rooms around the world and chug a beer every time they say one. Later they give a quick recap of season one of Game of Beers and look forward to season two.

The boys are joined by dafloreslava, aka tattoo Dave, in #LilReno to answer the question “has craft beer jumped the shark”. This came up after a local craft brewery released a bud light lime rip off, just awful.

The boys are back in Portland and give a critique of Salem after their night on the town. After rambling about through both the chug and beer of the week (BOW) they go over the close of the Oregon Ag Fest, which somehow was better than day one.

The boys are in Salem, OR to give their review of the first day of the Oregon Ag Festival as well as setting up their night on the town.

The boys are back from N. Portland and they spend time slamming the CBD ales released on 420, then they dig right into pairing beer with fine food. Later the boys taste some Trillium cans brought back from Boston and those frowns get turned upside down. Stick around until then end when the boys make a couple big announcements about Salem and Denver.

The boys are back live from the new Breakside brewpub in the Slabtown neighborhood. They are joined by the legendary Patrick Harris of The Hot Corner on 1080 the fan. The boys map out a one day beer trip for a first timer in PDX. Then they talk about the marketing scam that is “American Craft Mexican” lagers.

The boys are back with special guest Slick, aka @rkingret, recording from the newly minted Amsterdam house. The boys discuss hazies being officially added to the Brewers Association style guide, then without inside info they ponder the hard fall of Green Flash. One thing is for sure, with Eugene Mike back the trash talk goes up a notch or two.

The boys are back with Hippy Dave on a cold Portland night, they discuss some pit falls to avoid when building a beer cellar. Our usual host @eugenebeermike totally bricked so @istalkdeath filled in and one things for certain, without Eugene there was a lot less schitt talking.

After the 3rd episode was lost the boys are back and better than ever with Episode 4. This time they post up live outside of Bridgetown Beerhouse, by the time the cast was over they had to fight off the crowds, everyone wants a piece of these guys.

UPDATE: The podcast took place but unfortunately the recording was severely corrupted, to the point where it is unlistenable.  It's a shame too because the topics were great. But, that's the way she goes.

Episode 2 is finally here! Baller "IIPA" Chris bricked, said he doesn't drink beers anymore, and got super sick, so @BrownPadres and @EugeneBeerMike went it alone, together.

Welcome to the first episode of gameOfBeers.  This was a trial run to get started and not meant to be posted, but phukit, I posted it anyway.  We'll be back next week with upgraded recording equipment and more super sweet content.
