"In this edition, recorded at Iron and Glass Taproom and Bottle Shop, we talk with the 6 breweries who each provided a pin of real or cask-conditioned ale. We experience beer from a handle-pull engine, and from a draft gravity tap. Brandon Wright from Werk Force provides a surprise and talks FOBAB medals, plus we hear future release news from some of the others. Join The Brit as he revels in the joy of a pulled imperial pint! Thanks to Travis Beard from Ugly Trucking and Ken McMullen from Hopvine for arranging this and inviting us down to record the event."

"Our Thanksgiving podcast reports on a trip to De Kalb IL for The Brit and his stand-in co-host John Karwoski, as they visit with head brewer John Sanderson at the Forge Brewhouse. With John is his wife Christen, who is also sales and marketing for the The Forge. We chat about why they moved from one location in Sycamore to downtown, and why they opened a second location in De Kalb. We also sample some of John's brews and he tells us what to look forward to on Black Friday. The Forge is definitely worth the nice drive out to the home of the Huskies!"
