The Plan ...

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:

• Fruit Monster (Tart Ale with pineapple, tangerine, passion fruit) [Untapped]
• Mango Ripe (India Pale Ale with mango) [Untapped]

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 ...

In addition, here are some links to the other breweries mentioned in the show:

• Alvarado Street Brewery
• Modern Times
• Other Half Brewing
• RaR Brewing
• The Answer Brewpub
• 450 North Brewing

The post podcast production and audio editing were heavily influenced by Pure Project's Triple IPA:

Today's show includes reviews of the following four beers:

1. Burning Beard's Dankness Visible [Untapped]: An American India Pale Ale (IPA)
2. Pure Project Thousands of Money [Untapped]: A Murky IPA with Mosaic Hops
3. Horus Aged Ales' Spirit Talons [Untapped]: From the bottle "Imperial Stout Aged in American Brandy Barrels for 9 months, then aged in 1792 Full Proof El Cerrito Liquor Single Barrel Selected Bourbon Barrels for an additional 8 months"
4. Horus Aged Ales' Snatcher's Grasp [Untapped]: From the bottle "Woodford Reserved Double Oaked Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout with Coffee and Hazelnuts added"

In addition the following other items were mentioned in the podcast that have links:

• More details on Chris' story about Lost Abbey's Isabelle Proximus.
• And here is another blog post about Lost Abbey's Isabelle Proximus.
• What is an IPA?
• What is an Imperial Stout?

Here are some photos from the first podcast recording.

The Pure Project's Thousands of Money IPA was also instrumental in the audio production of this podcast!
