Capturing Whale Beers With War Pigeons: The Perfect Pour #164

Everyone has a different definition of what a "whale beer" is to them. Some are pretty universal. Like, say, a Pliny or Heady. Some are regional. Some are just personal whalez.
This week we capture several kinds of whale beers. Good good times.
We also talk about our usual craft beer culture topics, give you some beer to look out for and get feedback from listeners. PLUS A NEW SONG FROM "Paul In Fairfax"! And Stick around for a little home brewer hoping to turn pro talk.

Libertine Brewing, Tony Bagz and Ballast Battles: The Perfect Pour #159

This week we are joined by Golden Beer God, Tony Bagz, and owner of Libertine Brewing, Tyler Clark. These two love great great beer and know how to talk about it in a way we've never heard on the Perfect Pour before.
We're going to learn about working in the industry, brewing, getting beer on grocery shelves and hear the story of how you open a small, bold, eclectic, unique brewery. Tyler and Tony put it out there and don't hold back.
PLUS our boy Tony Bagz! It's so freaking awesome to have Tony finally in the studio!!
And let's not forget, Ballast Point has a big shakeup and it fuels several discussions about Buyout Beer and what it is doing to the industry of craft beer. This gets very real.
Please excuse the length and give this one a listen!
