  • Flagstaff Brewery Tour & Proving Pluto is a Planet

    Well it's official. We have hit the big time. The City of Flagstaff invited us along with prolific Nevada beer journalist and perennial Beer Freaks guest Bob Barnes out to their city to explore the magical world of Flagstaff brewing and space exploration. Yes, they do both.

    Our phenomenal tour guide, Meg, drove us to several tasty breweries, including Lumberyard, Beaver Street, Mother Road, Wanderlust, Grand Canyon Brewing, and Dark Sky, all within the city limits of the charming city of Flagstaff, most of which were walkable from our downtown accommodations, the very haunted Hotel Monte Vista. And yes, Derek got assigned to the most haunted room in the place.

    But wait, there's more! Not only did we get to experience the best brews Flagstaff had to offer (and there were too many to recount here), but we also got a VIP tour of Lowell Observatory with Dr. Danielle Adams, Chief Marketing and Revenue Officer of the observatory. Our hosts showed and told us all about how Pluto was discovered in Flagstaff, how the city still plays a major role in NASA (step aside, Houston), and how every single human that's ever stepped foot on the moon has spent time training in Flagstaff.

    This whirlwind trip was an incredible experience from start to finish (except for the unprecedented snowstorm that doubled our drive time) and we can't say enough great things about Flag and the wonderful beer culture, community, and craft they've cultivated in the charming mountain town. You better believe we'll be back soon. And we hope to see you there.

    Oh, there's one more thing. Because this was our first of hopefully many city tours in the future, we are working on a short film of the experience so that you can virtually come with us as we interview brewers, owners, general managers, and astronomers on this historic occasion. More details to come!

  • Nevada Beer Year-in-Review '22 with Bob Barnes at BrewDog Las Vegas

    We considered calling this episode "Bob Barnes 2: Electric Boogaloo" but then decided against it for various reasons. But yes, this is Bob's second visit with us. And it didn't disappoint. Not only did Bob share some impressive facts about Nevada brewing and BrewDog history, but he also shared a few new fears with us which stemmed from the birth of his first grandchild.

    We also enjoyed a few BrewDog favorites, including the Jet Black Heart Stout and the Light Speed Session IPA. It's officially unofficial. Bob is now our year-in-review correspondent. If you like this episode, just wait for January '24!

  • Crying Eagle Brewing is Afraid of So Much & We Drink, Well, Crying Eagle

    Have you ever heard an eagle cry? GTFO! Really? You have? Oh, no, you were joking. Okay, cool. Well, we got the whole crew from Crying Eagle, including the head brewer Ryan O'Donnell, the brewing crew, the marketers, and of course the beer, and we had them on our podcast. Now I suppose you're wanting to know what beers and fears we talked about? Nope. You'll have to listen this time.

    QUICK NOTE: The audio is a little quiet because they did the meeting from the brewery. So STFU, listen close, and enjoy.
