Welcome to Season 2 of Brew Tox with Scott & Scott.

In this first episode of our second season, our 15th full episode, and 30th episode in total, we decide to revisit an "old friend" — namely an O'Doul's Golden Alcohol Free beer. We have admittedly been quite critical of O'Doul's over the years so it felt only fair to give it another shot.

In this short MicroBrew, Scott decided that relaxing in his backyard hammock was the perfect time to review a nice cold Mexican Lager from Sober Carpenter.

This episode wraps up “Family Month” on the Brew Tox Podcast.  Much of this episode focusses on the connection between alcohol-free choices and healthy living. Bill and Scott are joined by their wives Cindy & Dorothy on a kayaking trip involving an alcohol-free beach-break. Scott then sits down and samples a tasty non-alcohol beer with his daughter (and Brew Tox graphic-designer) Shelby and chats about what is prompting younger people to choose alcohol free drinks. Bill & Scott also try a special-edition non-alcohol beer from Athletic Brewing and are pleasantly surprised.
