The Bums are back in the rail yard with Season 4, Episode 0111 -- having lost not one but two podcast episodes at the hands of a missing “micro” SD card (not called “micro” for nothing); nonetheless, we're back in the game with the first half jumping into HOCKEY — that's right — NHL HOCKEY — as the Panthers avoid disaster; NHL draft highlights (Russians are finally wanted for something); the NBA draft wraps up as the Chicago Bulls get a home boy with championship basketball blood in his veins (courtesy of Lithuania); the U.S. college teams have lost their mojo as Europe makes it's presence felt; Paddy drops a great IDNKT segment—Father and Son edition; the Summer Olympics are close at hand, but without modern western, modern conveniences (green-lessness is imported); and the Chicago Cubs erase more history with the disappearance of staple buildings/signage (Eamus Catuli Non Semper).The back half pops off with another universally famous beer review, as Mikerphone Brewing from Elk Grove Village, IL kicks out ‘Hey Mambo, Hey Mambo Italiano' (ABV 5.0) a super crisp, Italian style Pilsner that would nicely pair with pizza (go figure); Chicago's mayor Brandumb is in hot water again; Rocky's collection of golf shoes expands by one (at the hands of his lovely wife); the Galena tapes are reviewed during Father's Day escapades; Rocky and Paddy chase golf course ghosts; and close with a Riot Fest locale relo.   Better get some now, before Eddie and Rocky lose another episode.  Recorded on June 26th, 2024 at B.O.M.'s global headquarters ‘East Bunker' in Chicago, IL USA.  

This week… The fellas are back and they're starting a boy band! They unleashed their debut single, BOW (BeerOftheWeek).  It's being touted as possibly the greatest song ever recorded… in the HUA Stu. Catch it at the 06:57 mark! They called Andy and dove into WI sports. They did a full 7 round Packer mock draft, and they talked about the ascending Brewers and the Buck's playoff chances. Because Max lost the HUA bracket challenge, the Dart Board of Punishment spoke and he had to drink a whole 40 oz before he could speak on the show. He finished it during the pre-show set up. He started the show bombed and finished the show blacked out. Good for you bud. Laughs, burps, jokes, advice, swearing, darts, and so much more! But, before any of that nonsense, they saved the best for first, with the Beer of the Week! During the BOW the fellas rate and review a new beer. They discuss the history of the brewery and examine what's in the beer they're drinking. Then, they break down the beer by its drinkability, the probability they'd drink it again, its chugability, and the can's attractability. Find out if Mikerphone Brewing's Instrumental IPA passed the HUA test. Beer of the Week: 06:57 - 34:10 Packer Mock Draft: 54:05 - 02:17:00 Kärel v.s.

Welcome to Mikerphone Brewing where music and beer come together seamlessly. Located just outside of Chicago in Elk Grove Village, this brewery crafts all genres of beer alongside all genres of music.Welcome to the second episode in our series of podcasts where we have partnered up with Malteurop Malting Company (MMC) to highlight some phenomenal craft breweries for American Craft Beer Week, May 16-22.Meet Mike Pallen from Mikerphone BrewingStarting out in the music and marketing world, Mike still always had an inkling towards brewing. His dad worked at Miller when Mike was young, and therefore, told him to not do beer, and to go to college instead.Mike listened but still got into home brewing in college and then graduated from that into home brewing out of his basement, ultimately making the jump to his own brewery, Mikerphone.Music and Beer And if brewing had a hold on him, music did even more. Combining his two passions together, music and beer, Mikerphone Brewing just outside of Chicago became real. But not by any traditional means. Well, sorta. He did start home brewing out of his basement. But on the other hand, he also won highly acclaimed awards for his beer before he even had a location. He did finally have a brewing business, but no home for said brewery.This is Mike's story of how he and his wife, Lisa, brought two passions together to create one. Join us as we chat music, beer, musical marketing, life and parenting skills, Malteurop malts (they're sexier than you think), and so much more.The Riney-Hiney Purity Law and MalörtPlus, you won't want to miss our announcement at the beginning about Beer Now, nor our hilarious (we think so) conversation about the riney-hiney purity law (made up word) but it deserves to be a little goofy, because we got a little goofy trying to pronounce it and decipher it.

This episode is all about FIRE which stands for Financial Independence Retire Early. This movement came about as an entire generation began to push back against the notion of traditional retirement- working hard in a job you hate so that you can kick back when you're 65. Thanks, but nah. We have friends who have completely rejected that idea and have retired in their 20s and 30s, but the most important thing to keep in mind is that the pursuit of financial independence doesn't have to look a specific way. Just like those books we loved in the 90's you get to choose your own adventure! From leanFIRE to fatFIRE and everything in between, there are a variety of lifestyles we can aspire to. So we'll talk about the different types of FIRE and then some of the most important tactics to consider on your path to achieving financial independence. During this episode we enjoyed a Smells Like Bean Spirit Double Maple by Mikerphone Brewing! And please help us to spread the word by letting friends and family know about How to Money!

Mikerphone Brewing's Mike Pallen is inspired by music Mikerphone Brewing founder and owner Mike Pallen didn't set out to be a brewer.  Although his dad worked at Miller, he didn't want his son to follow in his footsteps and urged him to go to college.  So Pallen did just that.  After getting his degree he began a career in the music industry with the ultimate goal to work at Capitol Records in Los Angeles.  That didn't happen.  However, along the way he found his love for brewing and after working at a couple of Chicago breweries he decided to start his own. Music was still very much in his blood and that inspires every beer made at Mikerphone.  Each beer is named after a song our group.  The artwork reflects the names with some familiar nods as well as some that take a bit of thought.  The artists portrayed on the beers have been mostly supportive.  When Pallen received an email from Eminem's management over his Slim Hazy beer he expected a request to cease and desist.  Instead, they loved the name and even met with Pallen in New York. Mikerphone Brewing's Mike Pallen having fun with some barrels. (Photo: Mikerphone Brewing) The allure of Smells Like Bean Spirit If you have limited knowledge of Mikerphone's beers you probably know of Smells Like Bean Spirit stout.  The label reflects Nirvana's Nevermind album, very accurately.  "Bean Spirit" has seen many variations with different coffees and adjuncts.  Pallen put a lot of work into the best method to use to get the coffee into Bean Spirit to get the best flavor and minimize the possibly of bringing the green pepper taste that can happen.  It worked.  We sampled the Barrel Aged Super Imperial Smells Like Bean Spirit as we talked.  It's thick and luscious and paints the inside of your glass while delivering huge dark chocolate, coffee, and maple.  Mikerphone has plenty more to come in this series. Mikerphone Brewing Malört Crush Crush Crush is coming for your enjoyment. (Photo: Mikerphone Brewing) Beer aged in Malört barrels? If you know Malört you'd think it would be the the last barrel a brewer would reach for to age their beer.  But when the distiller reached out to Pallen to see if he wanted first crack at some to age beer he didn't hesitant to jump at the opportunity.  The brewery received excellent feedback on the first beer they did in the barrels, a Pilsner.  Coming up are a milkshake IPA and solera saison, and Smells Like Bean Spirit will get the Malört treatment as well.  Pallen said he can't wait to showcase, and for others to see, what the barrels impart to their base beers. The pandemic may prevent a huge party but Mikerphone is going to celebrate their 6th anniversary the best they can.  They're brewing up six beers for the occasion that will be available at the brewery.  Pallen is also starting to think of a second location for the brewery in Wisconsin and he reveals the name he has in mind as well as the awesome concept.

Despite my best efforts, I made the choice to move the podcast to a remote setting by hosting it on Zoom Meeting.  Mike Pallen at Mikerphone is deeply entrenched in this New World of To Go/Carryout only due to Covid 19, so I wanted to gets some thoughts from him and give people something to do while we are all locked down and Quarantined.  The crew was awesome enough to accommodate my Podcast request, so here is the Pilot Episode of Quarantine Content!

That's it. We just can't hold it in anymore, so it's confession time: We STILL have a crush on that purple-gray little console from the 90's: The Super Nintendo. We've wanted to tell you for awhile, but it's just been so hard, you know? Especially with all these fancy new-fangled next-gen consoles prancing around like they're Miyamotos gift to pixels. Sure, the SNES may be a bit yellowed since the old days and the eject button may not have the same spring it once had, but even after all these years we just can't quit you!  (Cue sappy Peter Gabriel music). This week, we invite you to come along with the Dogcast on a deeper dive of our favorite Super Nintendo games and also a bunch of hidden gems that may not have exactly gotten the attention they deserved back in their prime, but should not be missed! And also a couple games you should avoid like a rusty nail sticking out of a park bench.  We also drink some excellent beers on this episode, including the incredible "Smells Like Bean Spirit" by Mikerphone Brewing and the "Ruthie Golden Lager" from Exile Brewing, provided by our pals over at Gaming off The Grid.

Mike Pallen opened the doors on the tasting room for his new Elk Grove Village brewery back in March, and the rarest thing - besides some of his beers - is finding an open seat at the bar. We sat down with Mike at the new location to dive deep into what makes Mikerphone Brewing something like a phenomenon. And you’ll find out why opening a tasting room was the best thing Mikerphone has ever done. Over many bottles, we discuss the New England styles that have helped make a name for the brand, how he intends to try and fill the demand for Smells Like Bean Spirit (while creating more demand for some upcoming, crazy barrel-aged versions), the future of packaging for Mikerphone, how he uses Untappd for QC, his plans on establishing a flagship beer or two, what’s to come with distribution of his highly-coveted beers, and much more. At some point, we lose sight of the whole “interview” part of the show, and Mike just slides right into the 3rd host chair by joining us on diversions about New Glarus, Easter eggs on labels, music references, Skittles, and the local “gentleman’s club.” So, open up a few hazy ones because we hope you enjoy this longplayer even a fraction as much as we enjoyed recording it. Beers Featured Beautiful Oblivion (Imperial Stout w/ almonds, cocoa nibs, & vanilla) DDH IPA ABC BBD (Double Dry-Hopped IPA with Mosaic and Motueka Hops) Spacebar (Galaxy-Hopped DIPA) Educated Fool (Double Dry-Hopped Double IPA with Ekuanot Hops) Vinyl Frontier (Lactose Double IPA w/ El Dorado Hops Creamsicle IPA (collaboration with Untitled Art)

Check. Check. Is this thing on? Everybody wants some Mikerphone Brewing, and we find out exactly why on this episode. With a mixed 4-track of Mike Pallen’s beers, we have our asses rocked by a few of the best beers we’ve had in a long, long time. We share an update on Mikerphone’s new location, and discuss New England style IPAs, beers as musical instruments, and the fault of first impressions in craft beer. But then there’s some disgusting stuff about buckets, Gloria Estefan, Halloween masks, and girdles. Also, there’s some weak high fives, Craig’s day of action, and a game about Nirvana lyrics. Goodnight, Chicago!   Beers Reviewed   Nature’s Candy Peach Berliner Weisse Special Sauce Double IPA G Funk Era Golden Ale (w/ grapefruit) Smells Like Bean Spirit (Batch 3) Breakfast Stout
