  • 135. "Once Upon A Time in Hollywood." // Locavore Beer Works (CO) // Great Notion (Portland, OR)
    One can dream of the day a Quentin Tarantino film is released with the hopes of catching it in all it's glory in a proper movie theater. Does "Once Upon A Time..." live up to this legendary expectation? Can a modest brown ale blow away two skeptical grown men? Can an imperial stout WITHOUT maple syrup live up to the reputation of the brewery whose maple beers define them in the mind of Jonny Summers? Find out all this and more this week on Fresh Hop Cinema.

  • 134. The Lion King // The Last Black Man in SF //Three Floyds (IN)// Pipeworks (IL)
    What a week! We cover a lot on this episode. Catching up on Disney remakes (This week is the Lion King) has never been an easy task but perhaps the artistic vision of “The Last Black Man in San Francisco” will make up for it. Our conversation is lubricated by beers generously donated to the show by Trevor Maturo. The first is a wheat beer called “Gumballhead” from Three Floyds Brewing out of Indiana. The second is an imperial IPA called “Ninja vs Unicorn” from Pipeworks out of Chicago.
