Sherwin and Kirk became friends way back in high school when huge baggy pants were still cool, and quickly discovered a shared love for cars and disobeying their parents. Sherwin was known as the “go to guy” when it came to fixing their friend’s cars, and Kirk was always there to help with stubborn, rusty bolts and stuck axles. But Sherwin’s love for beer and passion for brewing is what initially inspired Kirk and many of their friends to become beer fanatics in their own right. As Sherwin became more and more sophisticated with home brewing, he began to enter home brewing competitions and accrued a large collection of medals. It was only a matter of time before an ill-advised drunken promise locked both Sherwin and Kirk down a path to opening a brewery together. It started out as a joke really, then a dream, then a realistic dream. As the pieces of the puzzle started to come together, they decided to quit their careers and go all-in on building their own brewery, and on December 5, 2015 they opened the doors to Glendale’s very first microbrewery. Cat’s Pajamas - 4th Anniversary is a Bourbon barrel aged Belgian quad with slight dark fruit aromas (such as raisins) and flavors complemented by light hop bitterness but no lingering hop flavors. This week on FDB - the dangers of boba tea, KFC turns away a horse and buggy, a Pepsi is stolen at gunpoint, and more! Now please kick back, and enjoy another sit down with Friends Drink Beer.

Hey everyone! This week, Ryan and Alex continue their Los Angeles Brewery Adventure and pay a visit to Brewyard Beer Company. Brewyard’s simple mission is to “redefine and rediscover a style of beer that was invented in California during the 1800s for Californians - The ‘Common’ style Lager.” The Common Lager are beautiful hybrids that offer strong flavor like an ale but still retain a lighter crisper finish of a lager. They expanded this category of lagers to encompass over a dozen flavors from hoppy, roasty, smoky, malty, coffee-y, honey sweet, and pale. They like to call them California Lagers. During the podcast, we’ll be drinking Lazy Hager, which has tastes of tropical fruit, with a balancing hop profile. It’s cloudy, refreshing, and has a nice crisp finish. This week on FDB - we learn what not to do with public microwaves, discover you can’t always blame it on the cat, fantasize about the coolest Big Foot of all time, and more! Now please kick back, and enjoy another sit down with Friends Drink Beer.
