In Stuart’s corner we have a stout from our friends at Krafty Brew called Chocolate Stout. @KraftyBrew

In John’s corner we have wheat beer from Rose Brew called White Rose. @RoseBrewBeers
Divided opinion on the beers in this round. Stuart scored the Chocolate stout a 7 out of 10 while John only scored it a 4. The White Rose faired even less well with a 5 from Stuart and a 5.5 from John.

We start with a chat about cans and can art. Some excellent stuff out there.

John has an epiphany! Maybe, he thinks.

When it’s chilly don’t put the heating on, grab a blanket!

A bottle opener in your belt buckle? Clever.

The Chocolate Stout Scrapes this round with a combined score of 11, only .5 ahead of White Rose’s 10.5.

In ascending order the beers this week were:

White Rose – 10.5
American Dream and Chocolate Stout – 11
Session Ipa – 12.5
Neck Oil – 14.5

But the winner this week with a combined score of 15 points is the Sofa King Pale Ale from To Ol

Until next time, enjoy your brew.

Time for round 2, in this round Stuart had To Øl‘s Sofa King, a 4.7% pale ale – @ToolBeer

John had American Dream, a pilsner from Mikkeller at 4.6% – @MikkellerBeer

Read on for the scores!

We start this episode with a bit of chat about Fatman Scoop, remember him?

To save his precious table, Stuart gives John’s beer a right snogging!

Quentin Tarantino’s back catalogue gets scrutinised as we talk about Death Proof, Pulp Fiction and Inglorious Basterds.

Lip Sync Battle, seriously? A whole TV show?

Hops, hoppity hop hops!

Is that the song from Little Big Planet in the background?

CHUCK! That’s definitely the song from Chuck! Which leads us on to a long and meaningful conversation about Yvonne Strahovski.

John deserves a glove.

Summer Glau, weird or hot?

Reaper, what a let down! Sock should have his own series though.

John is cruel about some random kids giant ears.

Dale and Tucker!

And finally the scores, John scored the Sofa King 7 out of 10 while Stuart scored it an 8.

John scored the American Dream a 6 and Stuart gave it a 5.

Sofa King wins this round with a combined score of 15.

Half a point behind is the Neck Oil in second place with a combined score of 14.5

Finally episode 3 is here and this time around the venue is Stuart’s fine home in Edinburgh.

We’re trying something a bit different this time around and we’re going to be sampling some beers that Stuart ordered from beer52.com instead of going to a pub.

Before we get started on that though I’d like to mention that we’d spent the afternoon at the Krafty Brew brewing facility where we met the owner Mike and sampled some of his fine beers. Check them out at www.kraftybrew.com or give them a follow on twitter @KraftyBrew don’t forget to tell them that we sent you!

So first things first, in this round Stuart was sampling Fourpure‘s Session IPA (4.2%) @FourPureBrewing and John was trying Beavertown‘s Neck Oil (4.3%) @BeavertownBeer.

Before we get to the scores, here’s a quick rundown of the topics discussed in this episode!

Stuart explains to John why the I in IPA stands for India, at least he thinks he does.

John’s beer swilling pal Peter, @PJMcKerry on twitter, makes a social (app) faux pas!

John eyes up Stuart’s Hanging Bat glasses.

The boys wonder who is and isn’t listening.

Missy’s, @FunSizeBiddie on twitter, complaint get’s a mention, and Stuart just chews louder.

Dickola Handicock also gets a mention ????

THE PIZZA ARRIVES!!!

John is looking into creating Flipboard articles for the podcast.

The boys chat about what is better, cut or uncut? But are they talking about pizza or something else?

“Charlie” makes an appearance and is immediately torn to shreads! Seriously Charlie, what even is that? A horse? A bike? An office chair? Have a look at yourself Charlie!

Eminem comes out, kind of. While we’re talking about The Interview, John does a pretty decent Seth Rogan impression.

Goodbye Rick, your laidback womanising ways will be sorely missed.

Last but not least, the scores! Stuart’s beer, FourPure Session IPA was given 6.5 out of 10 by Stuart and 6 by John.

Beavertown Neck Oil was scored 7.5 by Stuart and 7 by John.

The excellently named Neck Oil wins Round 1.
