The third and final Patreon-exclusive episode, originally published Nov 30, 2023. Backlist: It's National Novel Writing Month! Hope everyone has had a satisfying and productive NaNo! Since we're hopefully balls deep in some deeply angsty writing project, we decided to take a break from our Melissa Marr season to do something a little silly and light. And by silly and light we of course mean spending almost two hours LOOKING DEEP WITHIN OUR SOULS FOR UNDERSTANDING with the help of Alloy Entertainment and their Real Human Author Tucker Shaw. This month we're reading WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE (published 2001), a book of extremely '00s personality quizzes designed to help teen readers understand their True Selves. So naturally we had to try them out - for ourselves, and some of our favorite fictional teens. Chill: Nothing fancy this week, just kicking back with some Great Lakes Brewing Co. Edmund Fitzgerald Porter (Ollie) and pineapple wine (Cyna). Intro theme - "Let It In" by Josh Woodward. (1h 47m. Content Warning: Profanity, alcohol consumption, sexually explicit and generally extremely filthy language.)

Great Lakes Brewing Co. is going strong 34 years on We all know cans are cool. Right?  All the hype beers come in cans.  Great Lakes Brewing Co. has been around since before cans were cool for craft.  Good, craft beer came in bottles, and the macro stuff was shoved into cans.  When you're 30+ years old in American craft beer you're going to have some fans that still think a craft beer needs to come in a bottle.  That's exactly why classic like Edmund Fitzgerald Porter (aka Eddie Fitz, aka Fitz) and Eliot Ness Amber Lager stay in bottles.  When they tried to make the switch to cans their OG fans weren't having it, so back to bottles they go. But Great Lakes Brewing Co. isn't just about their classic beers.  They've got new hotness like their Crushworthy Lo-Cal Citrus Wheat and TropiCoastal Tropical IPA (fun fact for the Georgia folks, TropiCoastal was inspired by Creature Comforts Tropicalia) goes into cans.  A little something for everyone at GLBC. Brand Coordinator and Beer Educator Michael Williams joined us this week to talk about the old and new, employee ownership, and hot dog pairings and toppings.   We also discuss moves and mergers and sellouts and acquisitions.  Great Lakes Brewing recently hired Steven Pauwels to join the team, the  legendary brewer previously at Boulevard.  You can check out our 2019 show with Pauwels on Ep. 180. There's a lot going on here, folks.  Crank up some Gordon Lightfoot and give it a listen. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

RIDICULOUS AND RANDOM RAPID-FIRE QUESTIONS. With two of the best cocktails ever poured on the pod fueling a frenetic conversation, Episode 44 asks a series of increasingly idiotic questions, including which two animals, if merged together, would make the ultimate animal (it's obviously a dolphin that could fly like a hawk, duh). The OG 3Q3D squad is in rare form for this one, so dial down your IQ, amp up your amusement, and get ready to celebrate a new national holiday. Drinks in this episode:>> Tijuana Taxi cocktail – 2 oz reposado tequila, 1 oz fresh squeezed lemon juice, 1 oz fresh orange juice, 1 oz Cointreau, ½ oz simple syrup. Rub the rim of a chilled cocktail glass with the lemon wedge and rim with sugar. In a cocktail shaker, shake the liquid ingredients vigorously with ice. Strain into the sugar rimmed glass and garnish with a lemon twist. >> South Beach cocktail from the Rainbow Room NYC – 2 parts Campari, 1 part amaretto, 2 parts orange juice. Mix ingredients in cocktail shaker with ice and strain into a martini glass. Enjoy with a good friend or family member and tip your glass to my late grandfather (and original Most Interesting Man in the World) John Moskal. >> Porter/stout beer sampler:Edmund Fitzgerald Porter, 5.8% ABV, Great Lakes Brewing Co., Cleveland, OHSiberian Nights Russian Imperial Stout, 8.9% ABV, Thirsty Dog Brewing Co., Akron, OHDragon's Milk Imperial/Double Stout, 11% ABV, New Holland Brewing Co., Holland, MIIf you've been enjoying the 3Q3D podcast, please consider giving us a rating, a review, or sharing an episode with a friend.

Kill the Irishman chronicles the life and turbulent times of Danny Greene, a tough Irishman who gets involved with the Cleveland mafia. As far as gangster flicks go, it's not half-bad; but that also means it's generally half-good. That's because it's a relatively unfocused look at a rather complicated and violent life. It honestly feels like there's a good 30 minutes of connective tissue missing from the movie. Hence why Kill the Irishman is never equal to the sum of its parts. Sure, we get appearances from great actors like Val Kilmer, Christopher Walken, and Paul Sorvino. They are just given nothing to do. Greene, who's played by admirably by Ray Stevenson, had an incredibly compelling story to tell. It's a shame that director and screenwriter Jonathan Hensleigh didn't quite know how to do it. This is probably why it never gained much of a following and tanked at the box office. It earned a measly $1.2 million on a budget of $12 million. Despite all that, Kill the Irishman is not without its merits. And fans of gangster movies, like myself, will find elements to enjoy. For example, Greene punching in the face of a biker who hosts parties at decibel levels discourteous to the neighbors. Honestly, he had it coming. Now sit back, blow the caps off a couple Conway's Irish Ales from Great Lakes Brewing Co., and check under your car before firing up the engine! I, the Thunderous Wizard (@WriterTLK), Capt. Cash, Mayor McCheese, and Chumpzilla are defying death by harnessing the power of the Celtic warriors! This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – Is that all you got? Gonna take more than a few firecrackers to kill Danny Greene! (00:00) Lingering Questions – The Double Turn Podcast blows up Vince McMahon's limo, and then we discuss what worked and what didn't work about this wannabe Goodfellas. (49:24) The "So Called Mafia" Trivia Challenge – Mayor McCheese challenges the field to trivia about the movie and the wonderful city of Cleveland. (1:00:51) Recommendations – We offer our picks for the week and next up: We start "Hops and B-List Action Star Flops" with the Brian Bosworth biker gang classic, Stone Cold! (1:11:01) And, as always, hit us up on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram to check out all the interesting factoids—the true story of Danny Greene and more—from this week's episode!

Michael Williams, Lead Beer Educator for Great Lakes Brewing Co. joins the show to talk about all things porters, including the history, production, and food pairings. Great Lakes Brewing Co. in Cleveland, OH produces a benchmark brew as far American Porters are concerned, with their Edmond Fitzgerald (aka. Fitz, Eddie Fitz). Pour a glass of your favorite roasty, toasty, dark brew, and tune in!

Out Cold is like someone spliced Caddyshack and Mallrats. In principle, that sounds awesome, right? Well, unfortunately, that's more in terms of concept—a group of shiftless park rats bumming around their place of work—and the presence of a London brother. In Out Cold, it's Jason, rather than Jeremy. I guess there's slightly more to it. They do have to save their fledgling ski resort from an evil corporate stooge, John Majors (played by the legendary Lee Majors, how clever). And there's a baffling love triangle that makes less than a semblance of sense. If this sounds too harsh, I apologize. After all, this wonderful film does contain a polar bear licking salt off someone's balls; that same someone having sex with a whirlpool jet; and a mechanical bull appearing to climax during a rough ride. I'd say the 90s were a lawless time, but this came out in 2001. Anyway, sit back, chug some Christmas Ale from Great Lakes Brewing Co., and hit the slopes! I, the Thunderous Wizard (@WriterTLK), Mayor McCheese, Capt. Cash, and Chumpzilla are shredding some fresh gnar sans pants to determine who's King of the Mountain! This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – Snowboards, female objectification, dated jokes, and booze. (00:00) Lingering Questions – The Double Turn Podcast breaks a snowboard like it's a table, and then we discuss whether or not there is actual comedy in this movie. (29:48) The "King of the Mountain" Trivia Challenge – We hear from our brothers in beer at Hop Nation USA, and then Mayor McCheese challenges the field to trivia about the movie. (44:22) Recommendations – We offer our picks for the week and next up: We continue "Hops and Jingle Bell Flops" with a a video game quest that echoed a familiar pursuit of my own childhood 8-Bit Christmas!

THE HOLIDAY EPISODE! In the true spirit of Christmas, Amanda, Chris and Matt begin Episode 36 by arguing over the better Christmas movie – Elf vs. Christmas Vacation, and Home Alone vs. A Christmas Story – until their attention shifts to the troubling bullying behaviors of Rudolph's fellow reindeer. While answering more listener questions (this time all holiday related), the group holds its first annual gift exchange and celebrates the season with a variety of jolly good drinks, including a cup of controversial “holiday sludge”, aka Eggnog. Merry Christmas, 3Q3D Nation! Drinks in this episode:>> Christmas Cosmopolitan – 1 ½ oz vodka, 1 oz Cointreau or Triple Sec, 1 ½ oz Cranberry Pomegranate juice, ½ freshly squeezed lime juice; combine ingredients in cocktail shaker with ice, and after shaking for 10 seconds, strain into a martini glass and garnish with lime peel and fresh raspberries.>> Christmas beer sampler: – “Yule Jude”, Platform Brewing Company; “Christmas Ale”, Great Lakes Brewing Co.; “2Xmas”, Southern Tier Brewing Co. >> Hartzler Dairy Eggnog – pour chilled eggnog into a glass and spike with bourbon, whiskey, brandy or dark rum, and top with sprinkles of nutmeg and cinnamon.If you've been enjoying the 3Q3D podcast, please consider giving us a rating, a review, or sharing an episode with a friend.

Marc Bona - cleveland.com talked Great Lakes Brewing Co. has scheduled a “Die Hard”-themed holiday brewmaster's dinner on Tuesday, Dec. 14. Yes, the debatable, is-this-a-Christmas movie will form the evening's theme. The 1988 cult-classic movie spawned a film franchise and a world of followers

The Rocketeer is a beloved 1991 Disney film. Based on Dave Stevens' comic series, which debuted in 1982, it revolves around stunt pilot Cliff Secord's (Bill Campbell) fortuitous discovery of a jetpack created by Howard Hughes. Of course, adventure ensues. The character was created as a tribute to the 1930s serials that had inspired wonder in the youth of their day. Both the comics and film execute that homage perfectly. The Rocketeer is indeed a cult classic. Loaded with charm—which is anchored by the majestic score of James Horner—it serves as a delightful reminder of the comic book films of yesteryear. Those films had to rely far less on CGI and far more on making the viewers organically believe in the magic they were presenting. They also had a much slimmer margin for error. They weren't the commodity they are now, so there wasn't an excess of "superhero" cinema. Unfortunately for The Rocketeer, it failed to take flight at the box office. It grossed just $46.7 million on a budget of $40 million, sending the sequel plans to the crap heap. The good news: Despite some dodgy green screen here and there, it remains a very enjoyable time; and its enduring appeal seems to be leading to a sequel series for Disney+! So sit back, blast off with a Hazecraft IPA from Great Lakes Brewing Co., and don't let Lothar snap you in half! I, the Thunderous Wizard (@WriterTLK), Capt. Cash and two special guests are punching Nazis and crashing zeppelins! This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – 30 years later, The Rocketeer still packs plenty of fun. (00:00) Lingering Questions – The Double Turn Podcast tunes up the band, and then we discuss why this film should've soared, rather than crashed, at the box office. (56:16) The "Rocket Man" Trivia Challenge – We hear from our brothers in beer at Hop Nation USA, and then Capt. Cash challenges the field to trivia about the movie. (1:14:42) Recommendations – We offer our picks for the week and next up: We finish off "Hops and Attempted Franchise Flops" with the least self-aware Skynet creation, Terminator Genisys! (1:22:10) And, as always, hit us up on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram to check out all the interesting factoids—the upcoming reboot and more—from this week's episode!

Episode 185 - The Dark Side Of The Room With as many horror movies as we watch, we're not ashamed to admit that we're scared of the dark. Sure, it has affected our relationships with other people, and yes we do still have to sleep with a nightlight, and yes at the age of 34, Mike still pisses his pants if his cellphone goes into power save mode and dims slightly on an overcast day, but we deal with it, you know? Mike makes sure his phone is always well charged when it's going to be cloudy, and carries a change of pants just in case, we always have a spare flashlight, and most importantly, to avoid embarrassment, we don't try to form meaningful relationships with anyone other than each other. See, it's fine. We're good. This is healthy. This week we grabbed some Blackout Stout from Great Lakes Brewing Co. and a change of pants, turned out the lights, and discussed two movies that prove why it's smart to have a healthy fear of the dark.

It's fall. We're busy and the planet looks like it's slowly dying a beautiful death. This week we're talking about videographers getting all up in our business. People posting candid photos from weddings and then saying they need a photographer that can recreate that for them at their wedding. We also talk about disappointing food at weddings. Beer Talk: Dustin - Oktoberfest from Great Lakes Brewing Co. Steven - Screamsicle Horrorhound from Scarlet Lane Brewing Co.

Vienna-Style Lager (Description courtesy of Beer Advocate)Named after the city in which it originated, a traditional Vienna Lager is brewed using a three step decoction boiling process. Decoction Mashing is a way to conduct multi-step mashes without adding additional water or applying heat to the Mash Tun. It involves removing about a third of the Mash to another pot where it is heated to conversion temperature, then boiled and returned to the Mash Tun. Many brewers believe that the boiling of the mash gives the beer a flavor profile that cannot be achieved otherwise.Munich, Pilsner, Vienna, and dextrin malts are used, as well wheat in some cases. Its color reliably falls between pale amber and medium amber—there should be a reddish hue to examples of this style. Noble hops are used subtly, with the resulting beer having a crisp quality, a toasty flavor and some residual caramel-like sweetness. Vienna Lager and German Märzen have much in common. Although Austrian in origin and rare these days, some classic examples come from Mexico, such as Dos Equis Amber, the result of late 19th century brewers immigrating from Austria. -Color – Copper to reddish-brown-Clarity: Appearance should be bright; chill haze should not be present-Perceived Malt Aroma & Flavor: Characterized by malty aroma and light malt sweetness, which should have a lightly toasted malt character.-Perceived Hop Aroma & Flavor: Very low to low, derived from noble-type hops.-Perceived Bitterness: Low to medium-low, clean and crisp.-Body: Medium-ABV: 3.8%-4.3%-Glassware: Pilsener Glass - Typically a tall, slender and tapered 12-ounce glass-Examples (courtesy of Beer Advocate)(https://www.beeradvocate.com)Samuel Adams Boston Lager | Boston Beer Company (Samuel Adams)Brewed by: Boston Beer Company (Samuel Adams) Massachusetts, United Statessamueladams.com Style: Vienna Lager Alcohol by volume (ABV): 5.00% Notes / Commercial Description: Our original beer is full-flavored with a balance of malty sweetness contrasted by hop spiciness and a smooth finish.Did you know that Jim Koch tastes each batch of Boston Lager to make sure that it reaches our high standards?

Dortmunder or German-Style OktoberfestA.Subcategory: Dortmunder/European-Style Export(Description courtesy of Beer Advocate)Sometimes referred to as a “Dortmunder export,” the European-Style Export has the malt-forward flavor and sweetness of a German-style Helles, but the bitter base of a German-style Pilsener.

Look for toasted malt flavors and spicy floral hop aromas.-Color – Straw to Deep Golden-Clarity: Appearance should be bright; chill haze should not be present- Perceived Malt Aroma & Flavor: Sweet malt character should be low and should not be caramelly- Hop Aroma and Flavor: Very low to low, derived from noble-type hops.Perceived Bitterness : Medium -Four Noble HopsoHallertauer Mittelfrüh.oTettnang.oSpalt.oSaaz.-Body: Medium-ABV: 4.0%-4.8%Glassware: Pilsner Glass or Pokal - Typically a tall, slender and tapered 12-ounce glass, shaped like a trumpet at times, that captures the sparkling effervesces and colors of a Pils while maintaining its head.

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/#

When no one can agree on what new album to review, Dan throws a wildcard into the ring with Calexico The Thread That Keeps Us. Evan and Eric think the Tex-Mex inspired seven-piece's music is a little underwhelming—unless you're a Dad (or Dan). Then you're going to 100% love this record. Eric shares his thoughts on Jotunn's Brew beard oil and balm, a Nag Champa and sandalwood inspired incense scent by Mad Viking Beard Co. It may just be Eric's new signature scent. The price is right too! Finally, the gang embarks on a "Smooth Chocolate Experience" while drinking Blackout Stout from Great Lakes Brewing Co.

We return post Thanksgiving in stellar fashion for our Jerome Bettis episode, Episode 36. We have managed to survive Thanksgiving to bring you the latest updates in the hottest, most heated, wildly controversial debate of the century (i know it's more like decade, but still) of who is more hated - Limp Bizkit vs Nickelback. Next the gents talk about their favorite hockey movies of all time and discuss the merits old time hockey, you know Eddie Shore. Lastly, the episode is rounded out by a lively discussion about the merits of living in this home automation world. The guys explore their lives in a home automation world. It is very exciting. The Beer of The Week is Great Lakes Brewing Co. Christmas Ale which is fully acceptable to drink now because it is after Thanksgiving. So sit back and enjoy.

In this episode we delve into the concept of extinct cocktail ingredients.  It’s hard to put your finger on these dearly departed until you discover by happenstance, as I did, that you can’t complete the recipe. I stumbled into this circumstance by choosing the Amarosa Cocktail, another classic cocktail in the pantheon of aged beverages, but when I surveyed the list of ingredients there was one, Amaro Cora, that Michael said he didn’t have.  When that happens I take it upon myself to acquire the missing component.  When I went shopping, however, I discovered that nobody had any available, so I researched deeper and learned that the liqueur is largely gone (I did find some old bottles being sold for $200 – yikes!). To me, that’s really sad.  Not only do I not get to experience it, but there is a piece of cultural history and identity that’s becoming invisible.  I never would have known about it if it wasn’t for the project I’m engaged in and this recipe and book we’re working from; even knowledge of Amaro Cora is close to vanishing completely.  It made me wonder, how many other lovely concoctions have already gone from the world and how many others are on the endangered list.  In our conversation, it was clear that both of us were at a loss because those in the process of disappearing are hard to see.  But that story itself is also interesting, so we decided to use the Amarosa Cocktail as a way to discuss those expiring and long gone spirits in the world of cocktails. The really cool narrative I discovered was that with the resurgence of the craft cocktail and craft spirits community, there is a real motivation to recreate or "reverse replicate" these extinct liqueurs, beers and wines by finding forgotten recipes, finding samples in sunken ships or old buildings, or interviewing people who have tasted the original to reproduce spirits from recollection.  Recently some sealed bottles of beer were dredged up from a shipwreck in the North Sea, craft beer guys are having the ingredients analyzed in a lab to discover what it is...and if they can make some too.  The University of Chicago classics department teamed up with Great Lakes Brewing Co. to reproduce ancient Sumerian style beer from an old recipe translated at the university.  This is a wonderful time in the industry where history, culture, tradition, exploration, research and artisanship join to potentially bring back. Jason also researched the world of old world digestivos (as amaros were originally intended as stomach tonics to aid in digestion).  This is always a fun part of the episodes we do... the short diversions from the cocktail content to explore bits of history that reveal the strange, unexpected and wonderful aspects of our history and culture.  It truly is fascinating to see what our ancestors thought would alleviate upset stomachs. In my research, I found another amaro, Cardamaro, whose origins were the same as Amaro Cora, the Piedmont region, and is produced by the same company that bought Amaro Cora in 1984.  I was hoping that Cardamaro was somehow derivative of Amaro Cora.  After trying it...I don't think it is.  1-1/2 ounces Gin  1-1/2 ounces Kirschwasser 1-1/2 ounces Amaro Cora (we used Cardamaro) Throughout this episode I repeated over and over, "This could be all wrong without the actual Amaro Cora".  I reserve the right to maintain this forever and ever, because the simple fact is, we didn't have the actual ingredient for the cocktail.  The cardamaro was a strange creature...everybody gave it a different assessment after tasting.  It was all over the place.  By and large, this cocktail was not appreciated in the form we tried.  We mostly agreed that the kirschwasser did not play well with the ingredients and that it alone as a liqueur is unpleasant.  In the end, Rachel had even decided that this drink was, in her assessment, bad; the rest of us didn't commit to anything.  In closing, I would like to reinforce two things:  This cocktail we tried was not the correct one, so we can't know what the real taste is until we get some; and, Michael makes the cocktails as instructed so we get the best actual experience that we can.  If we don't appreciate the cocktails as much, that does not reflect upon Michael's expertise or the Brixton and their cocktail offerings...we've had their cocktails...they pretty much kick the ass of most of the cocktails in book we're using for our tour. And BTW anybody who has some Amaro Cora they’re not using…go ahead and send it our way.
