Someone at a table casually unwrapped a kidney stone like it was a party favor, and somehow that wasn’t even the only strange moment of the night. We pour two very different beers and let the conversation go where it wants, from legit craft beer tasting notes to the kind of stories you only tell when you trust the room.

First up is Old Peculiar, the famous Yorkshire dark ale that drinks way smoother than you’d expect. We talk flavor in plain language, how the coffee and chocolate hints show up (and then disappear), and why it earns a high rating without trying to be flashy. Then we jump into St. Patrick’s Day food and pub classics: quick sausage rolls with puff pastry, bangers and mash, and that Guinness gravy that makes you stop talking for a second.

After the break, we crack 11.3 Brewing’s Brambleberry Cobbler. It’s labeled as a sour, but to us it drinks like a light dessert beer with vanilla, graham cracker, cinnamon, and just enough berry to keep it interesting. We also get into the real-life part of craft beer culture: price, availability, and whether a $21 four-pack is worth it. Along the way we hit Northeast Ohio chaos (meteor boom, Bigfoot sightings, weather whiplash), do a fast “bad choices” question game, and wrap with what we’re watching and what we want to try next.
