The original plan was to have a two beer review in our 2nd podcast. But if you know Chris & Charlie, keeping them on plan is never going to be easy.

Today's show includes a review of two excellent beers from Great Notion Brewing:

However, before the show ended, and while Tech Guy Steve was giving the wrap-up signal, Chris & Charlie pulled an audible, and end with a short sampling review of Humble Sea Brewery's S.O.S. Costa Rica Imperial Stout (with coffee, vanilla, & cacao) [Untapped].  The first bonus beer of ThePodcraft! And most definitely not the last.

The Reality ...
