It gets a little frustrating sometimes - there are a lot of projects that I'm in the middle of that I REALLY want to talk about on this podcast but can't because they aren't far enough long - or the details are still being worked out.

It's all top secret sometimes... but we can still have a drink together!

There are a ton of great things happening pretty much every weekend here in Cincinnati's craft beer scene, and this weekend was no exception, with a couple of anniversary parties that I "had" to make my way out to.

That means that I had a couple of great beers that I want to talk about!

The news that 16 Lots might be closing their doors soon means that it's a great week to head down there and do a show. I sat down with Chris Mitchell and Del Hall to talk about what's happening, and what we might be able to do about it!

What better way to celebrate a show that is always live's 200th episode, than by making it EVEN MORE LIVE? We headed out to West Side Brewing to get together and do the same thing we do together every Monday night... Drink!

On this week's episode I finally tackle it... the ULTIMATE Cincinnati Oktoberfest Beer. I take every single packaged local Oktoberfest beer, and I mix them all together into the perfect blend... then I shove a red-hot poker in it... because why not? It was live, it was a special pop-up episode... it was a ton of fun!

It's a big week! I had a few really great things to drink this week, including an excellent cocktail down at the Merchant's Club in The Party Source and a couple of cocktails at a bar that I just found over in West Chester... which certainly kicks off this week's discussion nicely!

The conversation hits on some big national news in the world of beer and rounds up right on Bad Tom Smith who is sneakily planning a massive expansion here in Cincinnati, that although I haven't had a chance to write about, yet - I think you really need to know about!

A new year, and with it, we're surrounded by everyone's New Year's resolutions. I try to keep things simple. I want to hang out and drink with you!

Luckily for both of us, that's a relatively easy task to take on!

The Weekly Pint is more than a show - it's a happy hour where we all get together over a drink and talk about life. Sure, we talk about Cincinnati Beer news, crazy regional and national booze news, and big things that are happening in the world - but at it's core it's an excuse to hang out with friends.

If you remember, back to the Spring of 2023, things started out hectic - it started with a pretty crappy website crash that led me to take a month off to rebuild, recoup and relaunch everything. Some weeks, some months, some years, are just... chaotic.

This is one of those weeks!

This time of year, we're hit hard with all the big stout releases... and after a chilly weekend "camping" with the family - I'm ready for it!

It's been a wild week, and as we wrap up Oktoberfest Quest, and head right into Beer, Booze, and Bonks, I think it calls for a beer or two!
