We ended up spinning the Wheel of Purple Punishments TWICE due to the fact that we live streamed the Vikings week 1 matchup against the Bears. We both picked the Vikings to lose to the Bears and to win against the Falcons in week 2. Neither of those outcomes was correct, so we spun the wheel two times. Let’s just say, we started off with a bang. We talked (quietly) about the Vikings miserable loss to the Falcons on SNF in Week 2. We also dissected all of the injuries the Vikings are currently facing. The future is bleak. On a positive note, we had a great Pumpkin Ale from Backpocket Brewing that got us in the mood for the holidays! We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

That’s right! We recorded an episode AND livestreamed a game at the same time! And we had a blast doing it! The Vikings WON 27-24 in JJ McCarthy’s NFL debut. It was a slow start for the purple team, but they got it done in the end. We also enjoyed a handful of Big Grove’s Neighborhood beer, which was delicious! We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

With a week to go before the Vikings open the 2025 regular season on the road on MNF at Chicago, we give our final thoughts on the Vikings roster, the state of the NFC North, and our final predictions for Week 1. We certainly have a lot of things we’re curious and excited to see, but there’s a whole lot of optimism around this Vikings team. We’re ready for football! We also had Hold My Pretzel from SingleSpeed in Waterloo, Iowa. Great beer and some great conversation!We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

Last week, we tried a beer from Barn Town Brewing that didn’t really hit the spot for us. We decided to try another one of theirs this week, and boy did they redeem themselves! Barn Town’s Neon Hazy IPA definitely hit the spot! Also, #19 Adam Thielen is on his way back to Minnesota after a few years in Carolina. We both wore our #19 jerseys to honor the stud’s homecoming and we spent an obnoxious amount of time talking about it. We also hit on the Vikings initial 53-man roster after cut downs on August 26th, and looked ahead to the Vikings week 1 matchup at Chicago. We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

With the NFL regular season just around the corner, we share our thoughts on the first two Vikings preseason games. We talk about the wide receiver group, the QB room, and the surprising RB3 candidates. We also make some predictions on who will make the final 53-man roster next week and who will not. Most notably, perhaps, is the beer we tried: Barn Town’s Tickle Pickle Gluten Free Beer. We’ve tried dozens of different beers on this podcast, but this one may be a one and done beer for us here on The Skol Hop. We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

To celebrate 100 episodes we took another Brew Hop trip across our great state to check out 10 different breweries that you can find in Iowa! Listeners of the show will know that we only drink Iowa beer on our episodes, so of course we have to go check out these breweries in person. We brought friend of the show Forrest along, and his beer expertise was a welcome addition. We spent some time in the car discussing Josh Metellus’ recent contract extension and the NIL changes in college sports. Then we take you inside 10 different Iowa breweries, listed below. The trip was fun, the beer was great, and you NEED to check out these Iowa breweries!We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

Welcome to our 2025 Vikings Pick ‘Em episode, where we go through the Vikings regular season schedule game by game and predict whether they will win or lose. It’s become an annual tradition for us, and we also flip a coin (heads = win, tails = loss) for each game and share the picks our families made. We also chat briefly about some training camp rumblings. All of it makes us excited for football being back! The beer we tried tonight was ReUnion’s Venue Hopper Pilsner, which was the perfect balance of a crisp, refreshing pilsner and the hoppiness of an IPA.We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

We FINALLY got to try the Ladder Cream Ale from Firetrucker Beer after we were somewhat unkind to the cans sitting in our fridge. We also dropped in a special preview of upcoming Episode 100 where we took a road trip to several different Iowa breweries! Then we got down to it and talked about training camp and the upcoming 2025 Minnesota Vikings season. We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us!

If you’ve been around The Skol Hop for any length of time, you should know that we love Iowa Beer. So much so that we only drink Iowa brewed beer on our episodes. This week is RAGBRAI week in Iowa, which only Iowans truly understand. We snagged River to River from SingleSpeed Brewing out of Waterloo as well as Reclaimed Rails Polka Band out of Bondurant. Both great Iowa Beers that we enjoyed! We also talk about everything pre-training camp coming up. Sam Darnold cracked the NFL top 100 list, Jordan Addison might be suspended, and training camp is starting. Lots to talk about and lots to look forward to!We hope you’ll grab your favorite beverage and join us! Skol!Shoutout to Big Top Ventures for sponsoring today's episode!

Friend of the show Forrest joins us this week as we discuss the second round of NFL Top 100 players to be revealed. Andrew VanGinkel had a career-best season in 2024 and landed himself at number 88. Forrest’s Bears are somewhat absent on the list currently, but we talk about some Vikings and Bears that could still make the list. We also chatted about Kirk’s recent comments on the Netflix QB series about how he seems to regret leaving Minnesota. Then we continued our topic from last week, only this time we bantered about things we love about sports.
