Tap In, Geek Out episodes:
January 23, 2020Episode 39 - GABF '19 Parleaux Beer Lab The second episode from our Great American Beer Festival coverage is a story of big hearts and bold brews. Parleaux Beer Lab's founder Eric Jensen joined us for a deep dive into the science of his craft, infused with an unmistakable affection for the people and culture of New Orleans.
...more January 20, 2020Episode 38 - GABF '19 Barnaby Brewing Co. Tap In, Geek Out returned to the Great American Beer Festival in October of 2019, and we're excited to (finally) bring you the incredible collection of breweries that were kind enough to share their time and stories. Our first episode from the festival coverage set a tone of humanity, strength, and grace that turned out to be a common theme we heard throughout the weekend. Matt and Kelly Barnaby made the nearly-3000 mile trek from Juneau, Alaska with an assortment of beers that were as exceptional and inspiring as their journey to bring Barnaby Brewing Co. to life... Twice!
...more July 31, 2019Episode 37 - Wrinkling the Stone We would never leave your poor heart alone here on Tap In, Geek Out. This week Doug & Eric revisit one of our favorite segments, The Wrinkly Sack. Doug's turn to choose the film meant that we got to dig deep for buried treasure in one of his all-time favorite movies; the 1984 Robert Zemeckis classic Romancing the Stone. How many Eddy Grant references can we jam in between our gushing over the sultry and alluring tones of Kathleen Turner? Join us with a cold one, and feel free to sing along.

Thankfully for you listeners, our resident comic book expert Carl Lundeen is here to provide some insight into the new Spider-Man flick and how it compares to some sonnet he wrote about the Bolshevik revolution in the eighth grade. We really appreciate the break, we’re elated to be back, and hopefully this won’t be the last time you read something this doltish from us in 2019.

...more January 07, 2019Episode 35 - Tappy New Year! Recorded literally at the zero hour, Doug and Eric put the year to rest with an hour of reflection, prediction, anticipation, and other word choices we’d often shun. A brief look back on the year that was leads into a discussion about all of the pop culture that will shape the year to come. 2018 was a big year for our little beercast, and we owe that to YOU; our loyal listeners and gracious guests!

Brewer Shawn Howard brought as much passion and personality to this episode as he does to the distinctive beers in their taproom; leaving us thirsty for more of his stories and of course the Fruit Salad Shorts Sour Golden Wheat....more October 06, 2018Episode 32 - GABF '18 Tumbleroot Brewery and Distillery Tumbleroot is not only an accomplished brewery, but also a seasoned distillery.

Day 5 in Doug & Eric's week of breweries from the Great American Beer Festival....more October 04, 2018Episode 31 - GABF '18 Bismarck Brewing When the game is on the line, do you send in the rookie or your star player? As the only brewery representing North Dakota at the 2018 Great American Beer Festival, Bismarck Brewing embraced both of those roles. In just their first year as professionals, Jordan and Peter left a sizable impression with both their brewing and branding savvy. Doug & Eric were delighted to help document the first chapter of what is certain to be a lengthy narrative of success in Day 4 of our week-long celebration of beer....more October 03, 2018Episode 30 - GABF '18 Melvin Brewing Day 3 of our Week In Beer ventures north to the small town of Alpine, Wyoming; home to the big beers and ambitions of Melvin Brewing. There was no missing the Melvin Bus, and the perpetual party it drew at this year's Great American Beer Festival. Lucky for us, Travis took a break from designer onesies and classic Kung Fu to speak about the past, present and future of Melvin Brewing. Get a taste of what's to come with their bold, boozy Barrel Aged Ruckus imperial stout....more
