After hanging out at Pies and Pints 2019 earlier this year and Jordan & Griswold stopping by for some happy hour libations the week before, we were finally able to get the Pigs together for a visit to Mashcraft Fishers....and it was well worth the visit.    We walked up to the counter, looked at the board and said...."We need one of each".  That's where the fun began.  We greedily took flights of every beer they had on the menu.  Everyone was especially astonished by the IIPA LUPU Imperial IPA boasting a 10.1% ABV but you would never guess it was a 10% brew and we had to double check we had the right beer.    We ran through the gamut of beers on tap and eventually David the general manager joined us after getting back from another event they had been supporting in the community.   Tune in to hear all about the many tasty, clean brews and then stop on in to wet your whistle and dine on some of the great food also available at Mashcraft.   Shout outs: Blakes Cider, The Bier Brewery, Pies and Pints, Briarscratch, Kopacetic Beer Factory, BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse, Untappd, New Holland Brewing Company, Anchorage Brewing Company, Lickinghole Creek Craft Brewery, Jonathon Mullens, Final Gravity, Great Fermentations, Taxman   After the show, start filling your own Tavour crate at https://about.tavour.com.    Cheers!   Be sure to check us out Sundays on Indy In-Tune. www.indyintune.com   Members of the Hopped Up Network.

After our venture out in to pub-lic, we've returned to the studio. The typical shenanigans you've come to expect ensued.This time around, we talked about a Black Kolsch called, "Sabbath" from Bier Brewery. Our mouths then experienced a taste of the North thanks to friend of the show, Jen P. She smuggled us back some Punxsutawney Philsner from Penn Brewery.Naturally this led us to a discussion about rodents and lawn mower racing. Also, John Deere - we are in the market for sponsors.

The boys spent a rousing afternoon in Geist at the Pearl Street Pizzeria and Pub with a quiet Vinny and owner, Dave Andrus, enjoying some fine local craft beer and bourbon and getting to know more about roots of Pearl Street and probably too much about Cowboy.  Dave was just glad he showed up in pants.  (We can’t promise he left in them. . . ) Tune in to hear Dougy Fresh and Dave bond over their Michigan heritage and love of Pabst Blue Ribbon, some bottle or can debate, Dave’s soon to be famous cheer, and Cowboy’s haunting dead babies story.  Whether you’re looking for a place for a great pizza, some of the best craft beer in the area, or to catch a game, no need to look further than Pearl Street.  Shout outs this week include:  1205 Distillery;  Bells Brewery;  Pure Eatery;  Scarlet Lane;  Workshop Brewing;  Scott Hardwick of Monon Beverage;  Burn ‘Em Brewing;  The Bier Brewery;  Union Brewing;  Mashcraft;  Jon Knight and Grand Junction Brewing Co.;  Moontown Brewing;  and Backstep Brewing   Be sure to check us out Sundays on Indy In-Tune. www.indyintune.com Members of the Hopped Up Network.

Don't let that super-sweet episode title fool you. There is actually, genuinely, truthfully good beer reviewing that took place in this episode. Sure, we then talked about getting pulled over and chugging a beer, Adam's death hugs, and expressing beaver butts. All of this because you need to get the hard-hitting news somewhere and we're just the team to bring it to you.Expert journalism aside, our local beer is Bier Brewery's Backpackin' Brown Porter. This medium bodied porter "for all seasons" caused some insightful beer discussion amongst the group. And yes, even Adam.Up next is Dogfish Head's Palo Santo Marron. This American Brown Ale really wow'ed the collective. Seek this one out, give it a shot and let us know your thoughts.Then come the hugs and beaver butts.

Brews Theatre Enjoy a look back with one from the vault.  Recorded shortly after Super Bowl 50, one of the most boring bowls of all time, an agitated Dougy Fresh, Jordan, and Cowboy talk beer and movies.  Or at least attempted to talk about beer and movies before it turned into a “What grinds my gears” episode and how much they truly hated Super Bowl 50 and just about everything that went along with it.  (They apologize to any Coldplay fans who may be offended in advance.) Tune in to a rousing show highlighted with some tasty brews from Great Lakes Brewing Co. and Shorts Brewing Co.    Shout outs this week include:  Jerry and The Bier Brewery;  Dos Ringos;  Otis Gibbs;  Audacity;  and Whitey Morgan   Special thanks for those fine fellows of The Dead Squirrels for the use of their tune, Calabash Joe, from their fifth album, SQ1RL5.   http://thedeadsquirrels.com/#

It was a cold night in April and the boys decided to seek shelter in a quaint little tap room down in the city.  As we walked in we noticed the wooden furniture gave this place a warm and cozy feeling.  We looked around to see chalk boards that were decorated so well they looked like they belonged in an art museum.  One entire wall was covered with awards from every possible beer competition out there.    Then from across the room a Distinguished Gentleman came walking towards us, in slow motion from the back of the tap room.  Could it be?  It was King Jerry of Bier Brewery. It had been way too long since we got to sit down and chat the night away with one of our favorites. We talk about all things Bier Brewery, sample some great beers and have some great laughs. It was good to see the talented Sarah Buschman and as always, our favorite bartender Cheryl McCarthy. King Jerry even shared a bottle of this year’s incredible Barrel-Aged Sanitarium with us.  Jordan, Paulie G, Tex-Mex, and Griswold were like kids in a candy store with all the amazing beer we enjoyed that evening. What’s on the horizon for Bier Brewery?  How did some of their Biers get their names?  Is there a Blind Pig Collaboration with Bier on the Way?  How many Stars did Griswold earn this episode?  Tune in to find out the answers to these questions and more on this episode of The Blind Pig Confessions Bier Brewery and the Amazing King Jerry!

In this episode the boys return to their roots and record a good old-fashioned home recorded show with lots of beer sampling and crude humor. Dougy Fresh, Paulie G and Jordan are joined by Security Griswold and the one and only Trey Deuce to discuss some good and not so good brews from Green Flash, Fat Heads, Volbier, Lagunitas, Bison Brewing, WarPigs and the infamous Evil Twin.   We learn some interesting facts about Paulie G’s Tongue, the effects of Blueberry on your throat, and even a touch of Jordan’s alter ego’s ancestry.   This is a fun, crude old school episode that should not be missed.   Tune in to reminisce about the old school days with the bad boys of blind pig confessions.   Shout Outs:  Green Flash, Fat Heads, BriarScratch, Taxman, Volbier, Lagunitas, George Dickel, 812 Farms, Bier Brewery, Bison Brewing, Alleys Alehouse, Evil Twin, Mob Craft, Chilly Water, and War Pigs

Let us take you on a journey.  A journey back in time, to the year 1994 when Brendan had flowing lochs and was headbanging to his favorite 70’s metal bands, Pat had brown hair and was wearing his signature shell necklace, and Jordan actually had hair.  Wait!  It’s not the 90s it is Savor Lebanon.   The boys head up north to attend this once a year beer, wine, and food festival.   The DJ this year made us feel nostalgic for our youth as he turned out all the best and worst of the 90’s.  Indiana On Tap again hosts a great festival with great breweries represented.   We get to sit down with Erin Edds the owner/co-founder of Garden Party (crafted cocktails anyone), Allison Zook or Cardinal Spirits joins us to discuss their impressive line of craft spirits and liqueurs.  We had some of their coffee liqueur in a milk stout and it created heaven on earth.  We got to speak to Tell City about their triple boner and the Pour house their impressive tap room down south.   Tune into this episode for some hilarious antics and good-hearted fun.   Should brewing beer be a boy scout merit badge?  What is that burning sensation in Pat’s pants? Why are the guys giggling so much about the Boner?  What happens when 2 drunk guys show up with peach candy necklaces?   All these and many more questions will be answered for you on this episode of Blind Pig Confessions. Explicit Episode Shout Outs:  Brewlink, Cardinal Spirits, Bier Brewery, Sun King, Cedar Creek, Metazoa, Tipsy Turvey, Rock Bottom, Tell City, Moontown, Arni’s

The Mattingly family welcomes us with open arms and plenty of beer. We FINALLY get to see and learn about this family brewing trio, and their vision for their very impressive Brew House. We talk all about what they have going on and the timeline of their construction of the new Brewhouse. Jordan had the pleasure of stopping in there just a couple days ago and they are ahead of their own predicted schedule. This is a very exciting thing for the Mattingly’s, Moon Town, and hell, the Blind Pigs too. We sat down and talked about some of their beers including: Dortmunder, Summer Sunshine, and the William. We reminisce on Jockey Box Hero, Cowboys famous striptease, and William Hung. When is Moontown set to open? Which Pig is one of the Mattingly’s particular fond of?

  The Crew:  Our gracious host for the day, Ryan Douglas; Brendan(Douglas Fresh) Douglas; Patrick(Pauly G.) Hall; Jeremy Nicely; Rick Greenless; and one slightly toasted, Warren Kluck Where to begin on this one?  This was Part Three of an afternoon in South Bend, Indiana on the weekend we introduced the newest Blind Pig, Mr. Warren Kluck.  By the end of hour three and a twenty minute rant on his hatred of Pink Floyd, we were wondering if we made a horrible mistake. Of course we’re kidding…we love our Warren.   The group was a bit drunk and ornery on hour three of the craft beer marathon… which of course we had to throw whiskey into the mix.    We talk Detroit Lions football, old ass QB’s, first tattoos, some rare but insightful words from Rick Greenless, and the re-release of Sgt. Pepper, Warren’s favorite Beatles album.   Lots of great craft beers went into the making of this episode including:  18th Street Devil’s Conclave; Prairie’s Sour Ale aged on Ginger; Bier Brewery’s award winning, Sanitarium; and we snuck in a little Jameson Black Barrel whiskey just for good measure and to be sure everyone got ripe.   Cheers!

We recently announced the newest Pig, Warren Kluck, and although he's been on a few shows, tonight is our first Blind Pig South Bend edition with Dougy Fresh, Pauly G, Cowboy, and Mr. Warren Kluck.  We were joined by good friends, the host for the evening, Ryan Douglas (Dougy's big bro), Jeremy Nicely, and Rick Greenless.  This turned into a three hour debauchery, so we split it up into three segments for your listening pleasure.   Part One starts out with some incredible beer, Taxman's Mexican Chocolate Cake a Belgian-style dubbel, aged in bourbon barrels with cocoa nibs, cinnamon sticks and Mexican peppers.  It quickly warmed our hearts and got us chatting about Untappd and how cool, or incredibly dorky it is; home brewing; Uber nightmares; deuchey beer bottle collections (for anyone over the age of 21); how much is too much for a beer; the best live music joint around, Vegetable Buddies; and The Stingy Pours, the all-star rock band that never was. . . The debates get heated at times, but love is felt throughout.  Ok, maybe it was all the high gravity beer, but we're sure you'll feel it too when you tune in.  Lots of great brews were reviewed in Part One including:  Perrin Brewery's Unfinished Business; 3 Floyd's Brewing Company's Gorch Fock; The Bier Brewery's Sanitarium; and a little hidden gem, Kasteel Barista Chocolate Quad Belgian Ale Cheers!

Our first encounter with those tasty brews from Grand Junction Brewery was at the 2016 Noblesville Brewfest, and boy were we pleased. Owner, Jon Knight, knew he didn’t want to mess with fancy, dancy, new fangled brews.  He wanted to get back to the basics and make good clean beers inspired by his rich European heritage the way they did in the past. So he joined forced with Head Brewer, Shawn Kessel, and went to work and have quickly made the young Grand Junction Brewing Co. one of the most sought after and successful breweries in the state. We had the pleasure of being invited to a special VIP night to sit with Jon, Sean, and assistant brewer, Mike Hofferman, have a few brews and learn more about this wondrous brewing company nestled in downtown Wesfield.    As usual, humor quickly ensues as we devour some fantastic GJ brews, the Orange Bird on a Boat Double IPA, Radio Moscow Imperial Stout, and the perfect Imperfect Backside Stout.  Tune in for the fun and learn more about Jon and Sean’s beginnings into the beer scene and how you can become a member to a special VIP Grand Junction club which has some marvelous benefits. Not only are they making solid brews, they are giving back to the community who is showing so much support for them.  You could feel and love and cheer in the room coming from the packed house of local VIP members.  We bellied up to the bar after the show and had a chance to meet some of the local patrons and hear some of their favorite Grand Junctions stories.  It was a difficult place to leave at the end of the night.  We weren’t able to thank them or their patrons enough for such a fun night and we can’t wait to get back there again.  Lots of shout outs this week including:  Jonathon Mullins and Broad Ripple Brewbub, Chris Knott and Flix Brewhouse, Andrew Castner of Mashcraft Brewing, Anita Johnson and Great Fermentations, The Ram, Chris Bly and Central State Brewing, Dan and Jerry of The Bier Brewery, Brian Graham and Four Day Ray, and of course, Mr. Dan Gohr of Redemption Alewerks   And a big thanks to Mr. Robert Rolfe Feddersen for letting us use his music to end the show.  The big man with the bigger heart, who, like the Pigs, loves this special Indiana craft beer scene.  Check out his page (http://www.robertrolfefeddersen.com/) and find out where you can see him live. http://www.grandjunctionbrewing.com/  

Unpretentious:  The one word that can summarize the dining philosophy as it relates to their cuisine, service staff, and ambiance of Madison’s which located in the heart of downtown Pendleton, IN. Through the little hall just past the garden patio and indoor family dining rests a charming little, prohibition era like, adult only bar which boasts one of the best stocked bars in the Midwest with an eclectic wine list, an amazing array of whiskeys, and a wide variety of domestic, craft beers.   The Pigs thought they died and went to heaven.  The Pigs were invited for their World Tour of Whiskey event and had the pleasure of chatting with owner and chef, Dan Stackpoole, before their delightful whiskey journey.  It was easy to figure out after hearing Dan talk about his passion for food and drinks just why Madison’s has such a fantastic selection of fine wines and whiskeys.  Only the best of the best make their way to this overflowing bar of goodies.  The warm, quant, brick atmosphere, along with the savory menu and mammoth drink selection, is enough to provide anyone with a congenial time while dining at Madison’s. But it’s the great staff and local regulars who treat everyone who walks in the door as part of the family that will keep you coming back time and time again. Tune in to this week’s episode to hear about Dan’s journey to Madison’s, it’s great food and drinks, and some of the great live, original music you may encounter while you are there.  Also hear from Mayor elect, Dwayne, who joined the boys after the whiskey tour as they discussed some of their favorites of the evening.

Nobelsville Brewfest was such an amazing event and the weather could not have been better. So many great beers and wines to choose from and the crowd was fantastic. It was the perfect way to kick off the Fall. We were surrounded in the beer tent with lots of old friends such as the reigning King of Next Hop Model, Dan Gohr of Redemption Alewerks, and we met many new brew friends as the day charged on fueled by some incredible craft beer. In this episode at the Brewfest we are joined in segments by owner and brewer of Heady Hollow, Keefe Pietri, Grand Jucntion Brewing Co.’s Jon Knight and Shawn Kessel, Four Day Ray’s Brian Graham, Fuzic Media’s Brent Oakley, and a very tipsy Riley Wunnerenberg from our very own Pig Pen. We would like to thank Riley for running us samples all day as we worked the mics. A big thanks to Greg and Julia of The Noblesville Brewfest for inviting us to cover this wonderful, annual event. We are already looking forward to being there again next year. Special mentions to Metazoa, Redemption Alewerks, Flix Brewhouse, Scarlet Lane, and the Bier Brewery (we’re not gonna lie… we kinda missed Jerry) Tune in and make sure you don’t miss out next fall. We’ll see you there! Cheers!!

Talented musicians? Hell yes. But just all around good guys and fun to chill with and have a few brews. Kyle Buck and Aaron Nicely of The Stampede String Band stopped by Alley’s Alehouse to have some beer with the boys and tell ‘em about what’s going on with the band, as well a some Stampede history. They discussed the soon to be released new live album while sipping on Alpine Pilsner from Bier Brewery, which went over well with the group. They switched over to O’Keeffe’s Irish Red from Evil Czech as they got a little Evil/Stampede anecdote. They talk a little Colts and a lot of Cubs and their hopeful appearance in the upcoming World Series(sorry Aaron) and they relive a couple scorpion burger challenges that did not go well. Tune in for the convo and then get out to see Stampede live. They will be at Indiana Red barn tomorrow evening (Oct 22nd), returning to Fiddler’s Hearth on 11/22, and the Vogue w/Reverand Peyton on November 23rd.

Due to the length of this episode, we decided to release this as a weekday special. So all you faithful listeners get two episodes this week. And a special episode it is. We had the pleasure to be selected to cover DigIn~A Taste of Indiana this year and we beat the heat and had an incredible time and made many new friends. Kolsch and pilsners were the main theme of the day, which were perfect for this hot summer afternoon. So many great breweries and chefs, and restaurants were showcased we got a bit dizzy trying to get them all on the air. Tonight’s segments were split between the following guests: DigIn’s very own, and past guest, Mr, Thom England, Bee Coffee Roasters, One World Catering, Robert Rolfe Feddersen, Justin Miller – owner of Black Acre, Emily Grounds of Deer Creek Brewery, Kelly from 18th Street Brewery, Sean Lewis and Brock, Head Keg Monkey, Hicorse of Flat 12, and Steven Hackney of S’more Mobile which is sooo much more than just your everyday s’mores….think big… think alcohol. We spent the entire day next to the fine folks from Madison’s being intoxicated by the scent of grilled duck, and just as the day was coming to an end and we finally got Dan Stackpole on the mic… wouldn’t you know it… they killed the power in the park. So we thought, screw the 15-minute segment, let’s get over to Madison’s for an entire show. So be sure to join us next Tuesday, Oct 25th at Madison’s in Pendleton for a night of brews and fine whiskey. This event should be a must for every beer enthusiast and foodie out there each summer. Big thanks to Bier Brewery for taking extra good care of us (as they always do) during the event. We love you! And thanks Roberto Cavazos Jr. for stepping out of the Pig Pen to help co-host this incredible event with us.

It's always a special night when honorary Pig, Jerry Connor, joins the boys for the evening.

And all event proceeds benefit the Forest Park Aquatic Center. Be sure to stop by the beer tent and say "hello" to the Pigs. Tune in to hear all the details of these two great events. Cheers!

Dougy Fresh takes the Pigs back to his home in Northern Michigan for the 1st in the Northern Michigan series as the boys take over the airwaves at Goodfellow's Grille on Mackinaw Island.  This episode also features Beard's Brewery from Petoskey, MI.  They had taken over the taps that evening just one day before their anniversary party at their own taproom the following day when they made the big announcement that they were expanding and moving to a bigger, well known spot in Petoskey.  This was our introduction to Beard's and we were not disappointed.  It was quickly and clearly recognized just why this young brewery was already growing.  J.C. Olmo of Goodfellow's joined the roundtable to tell us all about Goodfellow's and all it has to offer before mixing us some killer cocktails of his own which comes out in part two of this night to be released soon. We're not sure how Beard's Ben Slocum finds time to brew with everything he has going on, but we are sure glad he does.  He is just one of the team of fine brewers at Beard's putting out some delicious beer.  We struggled to find any fault with everything we sampled that evening.  We were so impressed at one point, we just sat in awe of the lacing still thick on a glass which had been sitting empty for more than 30 minutes. And as bourbon barrel aged lovers, we were ecstatic to be some of the first to be drinking their newest batch that was not being made available to the public til the following day.  And it was glorious.  It reminded us of another of our favorites out of Indy, Sanitarium, from The Bier Brewery.  Each unique in their own right, but both equally fantastic.  It was a thick, rich, chocolatey, bourbon delight in a glass.  We had such a good time we are already making plans to go back to the Island for the big Halloween bash hosted by Goodfellow's Grille in October.  Thank you again, Greg Klinger, for inviting us to this fine establishment where you'll find some of the best food and drinks in Mackinaw. Shout outs in this one to HopCat, a mutual favorite craft brew place of ours and our new friends Hail Danza! www.goodfelllowsrestaurant.com www.beardsbrewery.com

If you live in or around Indianapolis, you know the name Sahm, and you know it's synonymous with great food.  But young Eddie Sahm didn't want to stop at just providing great food, he dove into the craft beer scene, found a great brew master, and opened Big Lug Canteen in Nora next to another Sahm's great, Rockstone Pizzeria.  And along with some fantastic Big Lug brews and grub, for the whiskey lovers, they carry some of the finest of Journeyman Distillery.  You feel like your part of the family when you're at Big Lug's and the crowd had just as much fun on this evening as we did.   Things get weird as one of the most active local artists and our good friend, Chris Burch, who's tune, The Gate is Broken, can be heard at the end of this episode, just happened to be in the house, so he jumped in to co-host along with passed guest and co-host Roberto Cavazos Jr.  Lots of great laughs and conversation along with special mentions to brewing collaborators on Big Lug's Stranger in the Alps, Flix Brewhous and to all our friends at The Bier Brewery (why does Jerry come up everywhere we go?).  Hunter makes the ultimate alcohol faux pas in this one, but luckily Big Lug always has lots more fresh brew on hand for these moments.   Tune in and as always, Cheers! www.biglugcanteen.com www.rockstonepizzapub.com www.chrisburchmusic.com 

We always look forward to our talks with Jerry.  Bier Brewery's owner and house comedian, Jerry Connor, always brings good conversation. . . and delicious beer.  Sitting with the Pigs back home at Alley's Alehouse, Jerry does some well deserved gloating from Bier's recent Gold Medal award won at the World Beer Cup which is becoming a standard from this Indy brewery.   It's not always just fun and games on BPC, and this week we get into some serious discussions. . . about belly naval beer and Dougy's tasty stache.  Although Cowboy was unable to attend this week's round table, Jerry took his abuse out on poor Pat who had to be taught the hidden meaning behind Bier Brewery's Track Bier.  As usual, we express our love for American craft brews (our despise of Bud) while sipping on some Bier Brewery brews with a number of shout outs on this week's show including our partners over at Great Fermentations, Indianapolis Girl Pint Out, and our good friends down south at BriarScratch Brewing.  Cheers! 

WZPL's Nikki Reed of the Smiley Morning Show joins the Pigs for a hysterical craft beer fueled evening of adult conversation. Tune in to hear about some of the events she has coming up this summer including the 99.5 WZPL Birthday Bash and the after party at Revel Nightclub with a Meet & Greet with Charlie Puth, hosted by Nikki. We review a few beers, Widmer Brothers Hefe and Moldelo Pacifico, and Nikki suggest we brew some rabbit beer. Too much to mention here, so you'll just have to turn up the knob and hear about Jordan's boozy tomatoes, edible 6packs, Strip and Go Naked, and Emily Grounds of Nuvo Promotions crashes the show. Shout outs to The Bier Brewery, Great Fermentations, and Nuvo's upcoming Burger Week that will dive into in much more detail on next week's episode.

We have been asked for months by fans when the hell were we going to start brewing.  Well, the time is finally here.   Thanks to our new sponsors at Great Fermentations of Indiana, the Pigs are now, not just talking smack about other people's beer, but walking the walk and producing our own Blind Pig Confessions brews.  And we could not have done it without the expertise help from Great Fermentations, the largest supplier of craft beer and wine supplies in the state. They have everything one needs, whether they are the beginner looking to brew as a hobby in the garage, or the experienced novice brewing on a large scale.  Not only do they have everything needed to brew, but they also provide many classes on the finer points of brewing and wine making.    Join us the evening for a fun, yet quite informative journey with the owner of Great Fermentations, Anita Johnson. We had a great time talking shop while enjoying some beers made at Fermentations.  If you're not brewing your own beer now, you will be after this episode.  Check out Great Fermentations and tell 'em the Pigs sent you.  (A few shout outs in this episode to their neighbors, The Bier Brewery, Journeyman Distillery, and Evil Czech Brewery and Public House.)   

What an amazing event!  Very proud to have been part of the 1st Indiana's Next Hop Model hosted by Indiana On Tap and Nuvo and took place at the Foyt Wine Vault in Speedway, In.  Ed Wenck of Nuvo and James Hinchcliffe did a great job MCing as the local breweries hit the runway, along with our very own Cowboy who got to tear up the catwalk to end the show.  The crowd was fantastic and our thirst was quenched by some excelling local craft beer.  Tune in for some snip-its from old and new friends including Flat12 Brewery, Two Deep Brewing, Broad Ripple Brewpub, up and coming Moontown Brewing, Scarlet Lane Brewing Company, our good buddy Jerry of Bier Brewery, Nikki Reed of the Smiley Morning Show, and IndyCar driver, James Hinchcliffe.   And a big congrats to Redemption's, Dan Gohr, for taking home the crown.  (And be prepared for next week's show featuring Redemption Alewerks Cameron Fila and Dan Gohr.) Cheers!

It was such a delight to have Jerry and Beth of BIER Brewery visit us at home at Alley's Alehouse a few weeks ago, we decided to invade and ransack their home at the brewery on Euchre night.  Jerry joins the gang once again and pulls out some very special 2014 Barrel Aged Sanitarium.  The 2016 Sanitarium is being released TODAY!  I advise everyone to get themselves a bottle of this (before the Pigs get it all).We had a blast on this episode and gave some air time to a few of the many Bier customers surrounding us while reviewing some great biers.  Tune in to this weeks episode and then make your way to the Bier Brewery this afternoon and indulge in the Sanitarium.    

Jerry and Beth of BIER Brewery joined the Pigs at Alley's tonight for a few rounds of Confessions.  After reviewing about 20 beers on previous shows, we finally got them to join us at home.  We loved their beer, not we love their people.  We reviewed a couple tasty BIER brews and talked BIER 101.  Can't wait to take the show to their living room for more great BIERs.   Thanks to Chris Burch for the music to start and finish this fun episode.      

Check in to this rockin' episode as we explore Butt Rock with Dead Squirrels...  I swear that's not just a bad pun.  Our good friends, the boys of The Dead Squirrels, join us this week to rap about the origins of Glam Metal as we enjoy the Bogside Stout from Bier Brewery on stage at our home at Alley's Alehouse.  We dig into the early stages of Nerf Metal, Jim defends his love of Kip Winger, one of the Pigs prays for Alice Cooper, and Donny explains how Vince Neil is contractually too fat to go on with another Motley Crew tour.  Enjoy the show and come see the Pigs tomorrow night at Alley's Alehouse as The Dead Squirrels rock the stage.
