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.

This episode kicks off what we are calling “Family Month” on the Brew Tox Podcast.  Despite the title of this episode sounding like a musical group, it is actually Scott being joined by his son Liam to talk about alcohol-free beer culture and sample a couple of brews from Sober Carpenter Brewing.

This MicroBrew continues and concludes the Brew Tox Podcast theme for May which has been stories from the Okanagan Fest of Ale in Penticton, B.C.  This time, Brew Tox with Scott & Scott interviews Jamie Cockerill from Fernie Brewing about their non-alcoholic Logo brand of beers.  They also review a kolsch-style AFB from Calgary’s One for the Road Brewing.

In this, Brew-Tox's 10th full episode and 20th overall (including MicroBrews), Scott & Scott continue the Fest of Ale theme for the month of May. They talk about their experiences at the beer festival in Penticton where they gave away free samples of alcohol free beer to many an unsuspecting festival-goer. And, amidst the reminiscing and story-telling, they manage to review a couple of very tasty beers — both from Fieldhouse Brewing.

This MicroBrew and "Tasting from Afar" is the second of two podcasts from Huatulco, Mexico. Bill & Scott are joined once again by some of their fellow vacationers. This time Adam, JF, and Brian try a Modelo Cero Dorada and offer their thoughts on the alcohol free beer while they sit oceanside on a pleasantly warm evening where the biggest worry is how to keep beer cold.
