As the snow continues to fall in the areas...where it falls, it's time to grab a nice winter ale to help keep warm. At least, that's our intention! This week on the AoD Podcast, we have two winter ales that are still in season, just in time for the beginning of the Winter anime season! On tap are the St. Bernardus Christmas Ale and the Hofbräu Winter Spezial Bock, two ales that are sure to keep you cozy as you snuggle up to our main topic for the week, those pesky anime premieres. What is worth watching this season? Well join us this week to hear our frank opinions on what's hot and what's not. Will this season leave us in the cold, or will there be any shows to save us from a blizzard of disappointment?
