5-star review by: David the Oxford (United States)

The third review, thanks again for being the best podcast. I rate

podcast like most things in life. “Would I drink a beer with this

person or with these people”, and the answer is an overwhelming “yes”.

Keep up the great work and for the love of beer, y’all get healthy. I

don’t like beer but still, like this podcast

by: BB_Spiky (United Kingdom)

A group of like-minded friends sit and put the world to rights over a

beer. Love the podcast and the interplay between them. Cheers!

David the “Ox” - Raised a challenge responding to Jenn’s mention that

since we live at altitude, we can likely out-drink our sea-level living

listeners. He also sent a really nice photo with of he and his wife.

“I am responding to your challenge about being able to drink more

when y’all visit the reason con. Something about the altitude or some

nonsense like that. Well, challenge accepted. Bring it on.”

This heavy drinker (Thinker?) then proceeded to show us a whole bunch of

the beers he was drinking. We have our work cut out for us at ReasonCon.

Another message from Josh saying,

“Loving episode 117, listening to it while getting ready for work. I

have to say, I love the constantly changing backgrounds. Who is in

charge of that edit? A Beautiful touch.”

Nathan tweeted us from the Women’s March! Fantastic hats ladies keep up the good work. Nathan asked us to mention that Congress has a phone number and you should call it: Congress 202–225–3121 - just be a little more polite to them than you would be on our drunk-dial line.

 

We also got some info from awesomest home-brewer of the show Ben! He asked us to share http://www.marchforscience.com who’s twitter account just announced that they will be releasing an organizational tool in the upcoming days.

To close out the roundtable this week we’re happy to say that HB135 was dead moments before the last show was published!

Keep it going by visiting http://patreon.com/w4w and getting shows that always include another story but frequently run as long as 30 more minutes! Speaking of reasons it’s #GoodToBeAPatron — we just released our first “real” episode of 4 More Beers. We did a test a little while ago but now it’s got template files and Automator functions just like a real boy!

4 More Beers is a smaller show we put out just to patrons wherein we announce the next four beers we’ll be drinking and chat a bit. Each show will be a cobbling together of pre-show chatter, behind the scenes discussions, and discussions about the direction of the show… also outtakes. Sooooooo many outtakes and silly clips. This week’s episode is about 45minutes long and includes pre-Jim’s Juice Jenn, Shea doing intros… sorta… and an impromptu discussion we had a few weeks ago with Jim before recording about trans awareness and Callie’s Gaytheist Manifesto.

From: Brother Brewer of http://www.skepticsbrewpub.com

Subject: Cream Ale

The reason a beer is classified as a “cream ale” is because it is made with a bit of “creamed” or now flaked maize corn. It was created by American brewers before prohibition to compete with the new lager styles that German brewers were bringing over. According to the BJCP: “Overall Impression: A clean, well-attenuated, flavorful American “lawnmower” beer. Easily drinkable and refreshing, with more character than typical American lagers. Aroma: Medium-low to low malt notes, with a sweet, corn-like aroma. Low levels of DMS are allowable but are not required. Hop aroma medium low to none, and can be of any variety although floral, spicy, or herbal notes are most common. Overall, a subtle aroma with neither hops nor malt dominating. Low fruity esters are optional.”
