Host Ben Rice travels to Santa Rosa, CA, to record with US craft beer legends Moonlight Brewing, with Moonlight's Chaos Management Specialist and Adult In Charge Erin Latham-Ponnack. Joining us for the conversation is comedian Jon Lehre, who is also the booker at Santa Rosa's premier comedy club Barrel Proof Lounge. Together, we'll discuss Moonlight's magnificent flagship beers, their efforts to keep to their goal of clean, beautiful beers that still break the rules in an increasingly bolder craft model; replacing hops with redwoods; and do side by sides of Bombay By Boat IPA on draft and on cask and Reality Czech versus its supercharged cousin 14 P Special. Plus! FeBREWary, which takes place every Saturday in February, which involves a free shuttle between Sonoma County mainstays Moonlight, Shady Oak, Cooperage, Iron Ox, Cuvee, and Russian River (Windsor); doing comedy on a dare; and some of Ben's worst ideas ever.

Fogbelt Brewing founders Paul Hawley and Remy Martin are back on Brew Ha Ha with Steve Jaxon and Herlinda Heras. Paul and Remy have been on Brew Ha Ha several times, including this episode last September and this other episode the previous August. This is a busy time for beer fans with the FeBrewary promotion and Beer City all taking place. For Beer Week, Fogbelt Brewing is making Bacon and Beer pairings. It's as classic as pizza and beer. They serve what they call “Billionaire's Bacon” and also Salmon belly, served with a flight of beers. Their annual Godwood Triple IPA has just been released. It is made with Simcoe, Mosaic, Aurora and Eldorado hops, all of them. They do three separate dry hops and a touch of caramel malt. Visit Homerun Pizza, home of the Knuckleball! Fresh pizza dough made from scratch daily, la pizza è deliziosa! Ten Years of Fogbelt and Brew Ha Ha Paul and Remy just celebrated their tenth anniversary and so did the Brew Ha Ha. They went to school together and studied moviemaking, then moved to New Zealand and ended up working for a winery and making their own beer on the side. Continuing to Australia they “became passionate” about beer. Remy studied beer and Paul studied finance and the new team was ready. See our sponsor Victory House at Poppy Bank Epicenter online, for their latest viewing and menu options. The Fogbelt location in Healdsburg is a beer garden which is also in an old train, just like Wine Country Radio. Fogbelt Brewing Co. is located at 1305 Cleveland Ave. in Santa Rosa. The Beer City Festival in Santa Rosa Courthouse Square is on February 24. There are three races, half marathon, 10 K and 5 K, which are optional. Next week the organizers will be in the studio on Brew Ha Ha. Herlinda went to the SF Beer Week gala. It was advertised as a “space” theme, including Star Wars, Star Trek, etc. Herlinda was the only person in the gala in costume. Russian River Brewing Co. is open in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Visit their website for up-to-date hours, menus, beers and more. Fogbelt is proud to be making a lot of different beers, something for everybody. Their Redwood Lager won a Gold Medal at the Sacramento State Fair. Fogbelt also organized a Beer Camp, an adult summer camp with lots of beer. They hosted it at Wildhaven in Healdsburg, which is a glamping resort. They had a few classes in search and rescue, cooking demos, a falconry demo, and most of it was all about beer. Paul's dad is a falconer and taught a class about it.

On this episode of the Dance Cry Dance Break, we open with “Wrong World,” a new original story by New York Times bestselling author of the Warm Bodies series Isaac Marion followed by refuge, the debut album available only on the Dance Cry Dance Break from Seattle duo Quand il Pleut.Wrong World by Isaac MarionBeth sits alone in a cafe she's never seen before, sipping pale yellow coffee that tastes like cherry juice, watching impossibly fat rain hammer the pink pavement, diligently straining to learn about this world she's fallen into. Her laptop sits in front of her, but the internet is still too overwhelming. It was overwhelming even where she came from, but here, without any context to shape its flood of information, it might as well be pure noise. She prefers to learn slowly by looking and listening, a few revelations at a time.“Did you hear about Maxico?”“Yeah but I don't get it. Why would Maxico attack Colomdia? Weren't they allies in the Pedro Bank war?”“All about that lithium, baby.”Beth finds eavesdropping to be the most manageable method. A drip feed of information slow enough to seep in without drowning her. The best way to learn a language is immersion. She struggled with Spanish for years until she spent a few months in Mexico—which is apparently now “Maxico,” which has apparently always been “Maxico” and she somehow had it wrong her whole life. So she immerses herself in what used to be her own language, her own country and culture, now altered in so many ways she might as well start from scratch here in the Unified States of Anerica.“Sorry, do you have cow's milk by any chance? I'm allergic to dandelion.”“He says he's more of a cat person, doesn't really like raccoons, is that a red flag?”“Should we do Greenland for winter break? Soak up some darkness?”She scribbles lists in her journal of things she doesn't understand, things to research further when she's a little less overwhelmed. But some questions resist research. The social norms and unwritten laws.“Of course they're closing the beach, Beth, four people drowned this year.”“What do you mean ‘why are we freaking out'? Malaysia put trade sanctions on Brunei, it's called ‘global conflict,' Beth.”“You're going on a walk without a sunscreen rubdown? That's ten minutes closer to cancer.”Sometimes the facts are familiar and it's only the context that's shifted, the mutual understanding of normality which has suddenly ceased to be mutual. Other times it's the facts themselves, a sudden onslaught of unbelievable statistics and rattling confrontations.“You kissed someone without a mouth screen? That's a one in four chance of syphilis, Beth.”“Beth, you should never stop for gas alone, the average gas station has a hundred kidnappings per year.”“You really don't have asteroid insurance? We get two hundred house strikes a month in this state.”That can't be right, she finds herself saying again and again. She's never heard of that. She could have sworn.But she's never completely sure. Did everything really change, or was she always wrong? Had she been misspelling “Anerica” all her life? Undervaluing all the dangers around her? Was she simply that uninformed?“Did you see what Mackie tweeted about AOP?”“Oh my God, so messed up, right? That one's going straight to the Pound.”Beth doesn't recognize most of the names she overhears. Politicians? Pop stars? Both? A quick google would slot them into the puzzle, but it's a puzzle with no edges, ever-expanding—fill in one section and another one spills off the table.“Is the Pound even still a thing?”“It is as long as Tertia's on the Desiccant train.”“Ha! Fair enough.”Sometimes the references are so thick, Beth can't follow a single word. Is it just her age? Did she fall into a foreign universe the moment she turned forty? She sneaks a glance at the two women chattering incomprehensibly at the nearby table. Their eyes are shrewd, their conversation sharp, their rejoinders instantaneous, everything about them snaps—and they're in their mid-fifties.No, this is not just aging. This is not the natural withering of her cultural umbilicus as she drifts out from the heartbeat of humanity. Something happened. This is not the same world. She looks out the window for her daily confirmation: those surreal clouds branching across the sky in complex fractal patterns, dumping hurricane torrents of rain that no one but her finds notable.“Seems pretty typical for Febrewary,” the barista replies when she remarks on it—that unexpected voicing of the silent “r,” and the usual confused squint. “The street pumps are keeping up with it, but I hope you brought your body bubble!”Beth did not bring a body bubble. But she spots dozens of people who did–calm and dry inside clear plastic umbrellas that extend all the way to their feet– as she sprints across the parking lot, screaming through her teeth while the rain blasts into her like buckshot. She gets in her car—right hand drive in the USA—and drives home, her heart pounding as she hurtles down the “wrong” side of the road while the rain covers the windshield like gel and blurs the world into abstraction.“Beth, this copy for the luggage…what is ‘that's how we roll'? Did you mean ‘that's the way the wheel spins'? What is ‘vive revolution'? Is that even Anglo?”Her eyes glisten in the lunar glow of her laptop as she skims confused emails from co-workers and friends. It won't be long before she loses her job. Even something as sterile as copywriting requires basic cultural literacy, and her editor is almost done with her. Everyone else might be too.“Beth, how do you not know this?”“Beth, that's really not okay.”“Beth, what are you even talking about?”For a while—three months? Six? How long has she been here now?—her friends tried to bridge the gap. They tried to be patient and understand what was happening to her, but she had no explanation to offer them. And after enough awkward moments, accidental offenses, and baffling displays of ignorance, they have begun to pull back from her. Or she's pulled back from them. Or the space between them has simply grown with the expansion of the universe, everything further away without ever moving at all.She shuts her laptop and sits in the dark. She doesn't turn the lights on in her apartment anymore because she doesn't like to look at the wrongness. The hardwood floors are now vinyl, the walls a cold green she knows she would never have chosen, her bookshelf full of books she's never read and can't imagine buying, her family photos replaced with generic landscapes. Her home feels fake, like a set built by her captors in an attempt to keep her calm. But of course she has nothing so comforting as captors. No one to beg or scream at. Her prison is unlocked and unguarded, and that's why she can't escape.How? When? Why?She has spent many sleepless nights scraping at these questions, searching every crevice for a single grain of explanation for her presence on this offset Earth. But the event left no clues. There was no flash of light, no stepping through a portal onto bubblegum streets under fractal skies. Nothing disappeared or rearranged before her eyes. The sidewalks were normal, and then there were some pink ones, repaved in her absence, and then a few more, and the internet insisted this had been standard since 2015, a cost-effective polymer that will replace everything by 2030, and then a storm brought the strange clouds, and everyone said oh look, fractalnimbus clouds, a rare phenomenon, but known.She couldn't pin it down. She couldn't point and scream, “There! You all saw that!” Everything happened behind her, or just outside her periphery, or while she slept or blinked. Her arrival was a gradual noticing, a mental list of wrongness that accumulated week after week until she had no choice but to acknowledge it. And by then it was too late to trace.She is beginning to accept that this will never make sense. She is an electron around an atom in a molecule of a dust speck on a gear in the engine of the cosmos, and she has no reason to expect explanations as she spins through its infinite machinery. Things will simply happen.There is only one question she might answer. She asks it again as she falls into bed without ever turning on the lights: What will she do?Will she settle here? Will she attempt to make a home in this damp, dark country? Will she keep listening and learning and smiling and nodding until she can pass herself off as a native? Laugh at jokes she doesn't understand, accept assumptions she doesn't find self-evident, find some non-cultural job on the fringes—pouring pink pavement, perhaps—make just enough money to survive the new horrors, and quietly disappear into a world that isn't hers?At 5:00 AM, as the horizon is just starting to glow, she climbs out of bed and starts packing. A change of clothes. A little food. A sleeping bag and a tent. She packs as if for a weekend campout, but when she shuts the door behind her with wet and burning eyes, she understands that she won't be coming back.She spends her first night curled in her car. Her second in her tent in a forest of blue-barked trees. Her third in a motel on the coast of the “Nevada Sea.” Her fourth on a desert plateau buffeted by icy winds under a moon that's much smaller than she remembers.She has decided she will not be an immigrant. She will be an explorer. She won't spend her life straining to belong, begging for a corner of comfort on this hostile foreign continent. She will roam it with the wonder and horror it deserves. She will discover it. And when her supplies run out, when she's sold her car and computer and peeled herself down to the skin, she will continue on foot and naked until she finally starves or freezes, and that will be an answer to her questions.She will accept that answer. Not gladly—she had lovelier plans for her life in the sweet, simple world she came from, and she allows herself fair bitterness for her unfathomable cosmic kidnapping—but she will accept it. She will cling to the cold thrill of discovery for as long as she possibly can. And if this world proves uninhabitable, she will discover that too. She will note it all down in her journals, and she will leave it for the explorers who find her. Maybe they will understand.   The album on today's show was written, produced, and performed by Natalie Bayne and Matt Badger, mixed by Natalie Bayne, mastered by Rachel Field at Resonant Mastering.

It's February aka FeBREWary aka Febberary. The weather is cold, but the podcast is a hot one when it's time to debate the best films made for under $400K. Get ready to pinch those pennies for: Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986) vs The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) vs One Cut of the Dead (2017) Can Steve annihilate the opposition, or are his dreams circling the drain like used Old Style? Will Meg retain her championship with one of the most well known horror films in history, or is her budget bigger than her bluster? Can Brian take home the belt in one shot, or will his attempt be an error of comedy?   Tune in as three mutant horror nerds rip each other's guts out on the way to deciding who's film reigns supreme!

It's the last day of FeBREWary ya'll! Eric and Shane talk about getting old, and buying houses, and maintaining them. Do you think love can bloom on a battlefield? Eric isn't sure, but he continues to diligently search for answers in MGSV: Phantom Pain. In other galactic news: No Man's Sky is perhaps one of gaming's best examples of turning a ship around after a failed launch. Speaking of galactic events, you ever see that one about the Alien's little mouth? Shane heads back to Earth and checks back into Cyberpunk after the 1.5 patch, finding a lot to love during his course of exploration. Getting further into the woods, Inscryption pique's Shane's love of card games and escape room experiences in a very SPOOKY way. Speaking of spooky, Shane parkours his way back into the Dying Light franchise - volatile zombies be damned. We also talk briefly about BeamNG:Drive as we speed home to catch the news, simulating the ending of The Simpsons' opening sequence. Oh yeah, Windjammers 2 seems like more of that game - if you like Ultimate Frisbee Tennis Streetfighter as a concept. Sorry, Dave Lang.

February 21st, 2022 -- Amber and Tanner had a JAM-packed weekend. Listen to this episode to find out everything you need to know.

Tyler Lafferty from Third Street Aleworks and Steve Doty from Shady Oak Barrel House are our two guests on Brew Ha Ha today with Herlinda Heras and Harry Duke sitting in for Steve Jaxon. The FeBREWary celebration is going on in Santa Rosa, sponsored by Visit Santa Rosa. Go to the website for information about how to participate in the 2022 Beer Passport. (SF Beer Week is also going on.) There are 14 craft brewers in the program this year. You pick up your passport at Wilibee's and if you get 11 stamps, including three free ones, you can win a colorful medallion. There are not just Santa Rosa breweries in the Beer Passport program. Bear Republic and Old Caz in Rhonert Park and also Seismic in the Barlow in Sebastopol are also among the participating breweries. Brew Ha Ha is sponsored by the Santa Rosa branch of Yoga Six located in Coddingtown Center.    Third Street Aleworks Tyler has been at Third Street Aleworks for 13 years, while other businesses in the neighborhood have come and gone. They opened 26 years ago this March. They got new owners a couple of years ago in the Spring 2019. He is the fourth brewmaster they have had. The last two years have been a challenge. They used to sell 90% of their beer over their own bar, now 80% goes out in cans and the rest in kegs to different places. It was hard to get food delivered so they partnered with some of their neighbors to deliver local produce. They did it until they were able to open indoor dining again. They have a new beer called PBR People's Beer of Rosa. Blanca Molina, a local artist, designed its label. Third St. Ale Works supplied food to the vaccination clinic that Herlinda set up with her friends, every Thursday. Tyler is proud that the owners care about supporting the community in these ways. Their menu is not as extensive as it once was, since they have had to become more agile, as a lot of other business have. They have done some remodelling. They also have “Tightwad Tuesday” with specially priced beers and bratwursts and a resident food truck, Tacos Tijuana, as well as others which are rotating on different days. Brew Ha Ha is sponsored by Russian River Brewing Co. Shady Oak Barrel House Harry Duke has known Steve Doty since before the pub was opened. 420 1st St. in Santa Rosa. Shady Oak Barrel House was a home brew project that grew into a business. He started just making sours in barrels and needed to expand to start an actual tap room. They also have Cosmo the brewery cat. They adopted him after one of the fires. Cats are good around a brewery to protected the grain from rats and mice. Cosmo was catnapped but later was returned. Shady Oak Barrel House started with a focus on barrel aging and spontaneous and wild fermentation. Since they opened the taproom they also make other kinds, like a triple IPA that he brought. The Shady Oak Barrel House also has an arcade with pinball and old 80s-era video arcade games. They are also a dog friendly location. They have a spacious location that used to be an automobile dealership. The King Street Giants, formerly known as Dixie Giants, for Mardi Gras. They will also have the food vendor Bayou on the Bay whose chef comes from Louisiana and makes all authentic recipes from down there. They also have trivia night every Thursday. Finally, these two breweries have produced a collaboration brew. Back in 2018, they brewed a Baltic Porter with a large amount of rye in it. They decided to age it in rye whiskey barrels. Due to the pandemic it has been in barrels for two years. It was a 7.5% multi-dark lager but now it is up to 10% alcohol. It has many layers of flavors. They are releasing it tomorrow.

Harry Duke, Matt Carpenter and Herlinda Heras have two guests today on Brew Ha Ha, Natalie Cilurzo from Russian River Brewing Co. and Martin Voigt, the leading beer blogger from Austria are both here today. First, we welcome a new sponsor to Brew Ha Ha. Visit Santa Rosa is sponsoring Brew Ha Ha this month with the Santa Rosa Beer Passport initiative. There is a list of participating breweries at their website Visit Santa Rosa dot com. The Santa Rosa Beer Passport is your guide to explore the world-class craft beer scene in Santa Rosa. Natalie Cilurzo from Russian River Brewing Co. joins us in the studio today because normally, today they would be gearing up for their 18th annual Pliny the Younger release. However they have decided to postpone that this year, because of the surge in Omicron cases. The new release dates are March 25 to April 7.  Despite the fact that they were conceived to run simultaneously, the Pliny the Younger postponement will not affect the 2022 Santa Rosa Beer Passport program, which will continue as scheduled in the month of FeBREWary. Martin Voigt is visiting again from Austria. He went to northern California to visit some breweries, including North Coast Brewing and Anderson Valley Brewing and there are others still to visit. Martin Voigt began writing about beer when he wrote about being a German who moved to Austria and got to know the beer there. People were interested in his writing, then a friend introduced him to video blogging, which he decided to do. It's the only video blog in Austria about beer. Martin brought a Vienna lager, considered to be the first modern lager, first brewed in 1841. He says that Austria always had small local breweries that served their local communities. It is lightly hopped and has a dry clean finish. Next they open a Russian River Row Two Hill 56 which is hopped with Simcoe hops, which tends to have citrus, pine and resiny flavors. The name is an address where the hops came from. These hops give the beer a fabulous aroma. Then they taste a beer called Falco, from the only brewery in the Vienna city limits. Brew Ha Ha is sponsored by the Santa Rosa branch of Yoga Six located in Coddingtown Center.

Randy, Tom and Rich are anxiously awaiting Spring and all of the off-season football to come. This week Bob Quinn made some moves with the release of Snacks and the re-signing of Danny Amendola. Matt Patricia made an in house coaching move by filling the TE coaching spot. We had no choice but to spend a lot of time on the offensive line.

No prep? No problem! On Sunday, January 26, 2020, DC Beer's Richard, Adam, and Brandy visited Silver Branch Brewing Company for a live DC Beer Show recording. The co-hosts brought up members of the audience to talk about a range of Washington DC craft beer topics, including the latest retail trends, recent legislative “wins”, and upcoming FeBREWary events.First Guest: Eric Kintner of Wardman WinesEric Kintner is a Certified Cicerone and a trusted source of beer knowledge for his customers at Wardman Wines. Eric's clientele range from local college students to established residents in the area to new move-ins. Wardman provides 3-4 free beer tastings a week for its customers--check out their calendar and stop by for a free tasting soon!Eric and the DC Beer Show hosts discussed the latest trends in beer retail. Eric observes that while smaller DC craft breweries consistently sell their “tried and true” brands, large distributors always look to sell the most “trendy” beer styles. Today, large distributors continue to sell Hazy IPAs, but Eric has noticed that many breweries are taking more creative approaches to these brews, helping to broaden the brand.Second Guest: Clay Palmer of Silver Branch The DC Beer Show next welcomed Clay Palmer, bartender/certified beer server at Silver Branch. Clay discussed a few of the new beer releases at Silver Branch, courtesy of Head Brewer Christian Layke. One popular choice is Obsidian Castle, a dark Czech lager with roasty malt flavors. Another is Full Tweed Jacket, a medium-bodied Scotch Ale/Wee Heavy with a rich, malty flavor.Silver Branch currently has around 20 drafts currently on tap, with plans to continue to release new craft brews and expand their offerings. Their beers are also available in cans in a number of local Maryland locations (and beyond).Third Guest: Greg Parnas of Marylanders for Better Beer & Wine LawsGreg Parnas, legislative counsel for Marylanders for Better Beer & Wine Laws and DCBeer contributor, closed out the session by discussing legislative successes for breweries in 2019. Maryland breweries received more favorable contractual rights when dealing with large distributors and wholesalers. The Virginia Craft Brewers Guild blocked a proposal by Anheuser-Busch that would have expanded the dollar value of marketing “gifts” they could provide to bars. DC craft breweries reduced a number of restrictions to help them become more competitive against larger wholesalers. And most importantly, Congress extended a tax break for all American breweries under the Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform Act. Looking forward, Greg hopes that the recent good news on US-China trade talks and the USMCA (or the “New NAFTA”) will help bring about more predictability and stability to the market.Greg and Richard also previewed the months-long Maryland festival of brewing, FeBREWary. One of the main events is the February 14 “Love Thy Beer,” where 30 breweries will compete to brew the best “Cupid's Curse” beer. FeBREWary will also celebrate the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment by debuting the “Suffragette Stout,” brewed by a team of female brewers from across Maryland. You can grab a Suffragette Stout at Denizens Brewing Company.You can catch up on all the DC Beer Show episodes here, and subscribe to our weekly newsletter, the DC Beer Weekly Pour.

Pete Foppiano is sitting in for Steve Jaxon this week, with Mark Carpenter and Herlinda Heras. Brad Calkins is here, from Visit Santa Rosa. He is the executive director, or "chief eating and drinking officer." They are doing a Beer Passport in February as part of their FeBREWary celebration. The breweries, Moonlight, Plow, Cooperage and Fog Belt will be running a shuttle, picking up people at the Smart Train and then taking them around the breweries. This is their third year of the Beer Passport promotion. Brad has brought a commemorative medal that people can earn by visiting 9 of the 12 breweries on the list.  They are all Santa Rosa breweries. The Passport looks like a map and can be stamped at any of the participating breweries. There is a welcome center in Railroad Square. This is a tie-in with SF Beer Week, which Visit Santa Rosa also sponsors. Then, Santa Rosa Beer Passport runs for the rest of February. Pete Foppiano talks about how the president's government shutdown has affected the brewing industry. The breweries can't get the TTB to approve their labels. Mark explains that if you want to sell beer across state lines, you need to comply with federal law (but not if you are making and selling only inside your state). The lack of government operations means that the summer brews will be delayed. SF Beer Week has something like 1000 events going on. Santa Rosa brewers are adding events to SF Beer Week. The first two weeks of February will also see the release of Pliny the Elder at Russian River Brewing Co. They get a visit from Seismic Brewing with a growler of their American Robust Porter. Bittersweet cocoa and toasty coffee flavors abound. Mark Carpenter says that oysters are the classic pairing with this beer. You can get your Beer Passport at any of the participating breweries and at their Santa Rosa Welcome Center. Mark mentions that he had an excellent beer called Drake's 1500, at Nick's Cove. Herlinda also mentions Flagship February, a celebration of the breweries that started it all, like Anchor Steam and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

Lots to cover in this Beer Sphere including Sabrina forsaking Dogfish Head, a FeBREWary preview, this month's recs from Roche and Sabrina, and the shocking revelation (to Roche) that there is whiskey in a hot toddy.
