After far too long of an absence, I'm very happy to present a brand new episode of Rough Draught: The Beer Appreciation Show! Ultimately, we knew that we'd never be able to produce RD with any regularity since Jon, Mike and I all live so spread out, so basically the promise is this: when at least two of us are in the same city, we'll record a one-off episode. So enjoy the first: The Dirty Deerfield Diaries.

On this episode, Jon and I are joined by our good buddy Casper and Jon's girlfriend Katie. And as you'll hear pretty much right away, we made some, er, INTERESTING choices when it comes to the beers, including: Dogfish Head Bitches Brew (9% ABV), Ghost Face Killah (4.5% ABV), Clown Shoes Eagle Claw Fist (8% ABV), The Bruery Saison de Lente (6.5% ABV) and Dogfish Head My Antonia (7.5% ABV).

And, as per usual, there are plenty of embarrassing drunk tales to be found within. So enjoy 'em, and once you have, you can let us know what you thought via email ([email protected]), Twitter (@crosstawk) or via the comment section on the site. And please please PLEASE leave us a review on iTunes. It's our only hope!

See you next time, folks!
