A Beer with Atlas

If you want more plum facts and/or just like sour IPAs, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU! No seriously, we understand that that first paragraph might how sounded a little...Infomercial-y, but it's what happens! As the resident Atlas Beer gurus sip on this former nomadic brewery's sour IPA, Insetto, We learn all things plum as well as all things Stillwater Brewing. nbsp;

Thanks to our resident Tech Nerd, Aaron Daly, we were able to have 1 of only 35 bottles made of this beer by Colorado Spring's Nano brewery, Local Relic Artisan Ales. Saison with Maple? We thought the same thing. Did it work? Listen and find out what Rich and Brian thought as they sip through this rare concoction of a beer.nbsp;

Stairway to Heaven? - A Little. Highway to Hell? - Kind of. Ryeway to Heaven? - Yes. This 15% beer comes from Chicago's very own Revolution Brewing.

You might be thinking to yourself, Wow, that's quite the group of topics. Well, when you down a 15% Barrel Aged beer with your friends, the conversation tends to go aw-rye.

One of our Travelers and her husband came down to our Arizona meet and greet about a month ago, and gave us a beer. While handing over Goldwater Brewing's Hazy IPA Hop Chowda, they exclaimed that it was the best Hazy IPA in Phoenix. During the same exchange, Dolan, one of our Brand Specialists, said Really? Even better than Fate Brewing's False Promises?

Week 4 of drinking Non-Alcoholic beers just so happens to land on 4/20. So, we decided we should Dank it up a little bit with another Non-Alcoholic IPA from Wellbeing Brewing Co. BUT, even with the added flavor, we're still staying sober for the drug test we will take for our next travel nurse assignment. ;) If someone handed us this beer and told us that it's just a regular IPA, we would believe them. That is just a little bit about how well this beer kept its flavor through the removal of alcohol in the brewing process.

It's the 3rd episode of A Non-Alcoholic Beer with Atlas, and this time, the beer comes all the way from Germany. Coming in at 0.0 ABV, you can definitely drive after drinking this one. So while you're driving sober, give this episode a listen, and join the conversation about Burgers after drinking a Bitburger. Okay, maybe it's not all about Bitburger and Burger. Brian and Rich have some pretty cool historical facts to share too!

We are on episode 2 of NA beers this week. This Non-Alcoholic Hazy IPA is made by a brewery that actually holds 61% of today's craft NA beer market. That brewery's name is Athletic Brewing Company. What do the resident Atlas MedStaff Beer guys think of that? Find out in this episode.

We are kicking off the next month filled with Non-Alcoholic beers starting with Heineken's Buckle brew! YES! We did say Non-Alcoholic. Brian is dry for a while, and we understand that a lot of our health-conscious travelers might not drink either. Guess what!?!? NA beers are becoming more and more popular and can fill the need for a cold one without the effects that Alcohol can bring to the table. Buckle-r Up because The Atlas Beer Gurus are going to review them here for the next month.

Rich brings a beer back from his stomping grounds, talks about The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and Brian brings up Mike Tyson's Punch Out. This is Black is All Colors at Once by Lawrence Brewing Company.nbsp; Enjoy!nbsp;
