  • Ginger Beer

    Hey everyone!

    Welcome to episode 98!  This week, we are talking about a beer that's not really beer.  Ginger beer has had a long history in pubs and homes alike.  Initially brewed as an alternative to drinking water, it's now become popular around the world thanks to the craft beer scene.

     

    This week, we are drinking: Crabbies Ginger Beer and Buderim Ginger Beer

    Thanks for listening!

  • Glass Shapes - Beer (IPA) Edition

    Hey everyone,

    Welcome to episode 94! We are here again to find out which glass is the best glass for the drink we are drinking.  Beer is about what you'd expect.  We have been drinking it so long, there's no good way to tell which was designed to take advantage of the other.

  • Sangria

    Hey everyone,

    Welcome to episode 93! Sangria is a delicious, fruity, and refreshing beverage.  Nice and easy to make yourself or buy as a pre made mixture from your favourite bottle shop.

     

    The Recipes for the two Sangria's we made are here.  Both recipes were taken from The Spruce Eats website then adjusted a little for my personal preference.

    The first Sangria (Red):

  • Drinking Games
