Mark and Hank taste 15 different Craft Beers with novice expert Rolan Ramos. He explains the different Beer and Ale types while trying to develop our taste for this "special" drink. Rolan has an extraordinary knowledge and nomenclature  for Craft Beers. We also discover the rich history, brewing techniques and developed pallets of the Micro Brewery style beers that have made their way into mainstream America.  

Along with some comic relief, we experienced an opportunity to enjoy the worlds best in Craft Beers while maintaining composure with statements such as "more sediment", "hoof flavor" and others. If you want to kick back, drink a beer with us and just have a little fun, this is your show!
