Perfect Pour Craft Beer Podcast

Beer Geeks Don't Like Greg From Stone Brewing. Why? - The Perfect Pour 246

So Miller Coors is now suing Stone Brewing for the name "Stone", among other things. It's weird but it seems the beer geek community is supporting Miller/Coors over Stone on this. Why? We explore this and might actually figure out some things.
There are many more questions this week. Like, why do non-Southern California breweries have such a hard time making a West Coast IPA? I dunno but they do.
This week is extra long. Not sure why. Maybe it's all the cool voicemails, the list of fastest-growing indie breweries, the ton of beer we have to drink, or "Woo Hoo" girls.
Too long or not, we have some fun, hope you will too.
Sneak off, don't tell your partner, and give it a listen!

Those Sierra Pale Tap Handles Are Going Away: Perfect Pour Episod3 #241

Would you be somebody's 'Line Mule'? What if I say there is an extra $20 in it for ya? Cool, cool.
Now that that is settled we can get on to talking about other beer geeky things. Like pickles. No really, trust me it fits into craft beer.

Does This Place Even Have 805, Bro?

Nope. We didn't get tickets to Firestone Walker International Beer Festival either.
But that's fine because we have Rad Stacey in the studio to ease the pain. We have a lot of beer drinking and culture talk to catch up on so it's a good thing she is here to help us.
She will be helping all of us by giving us advice on the one way to NOT order a beer in a craft beer bar.
