It's a geuze episode featuring two breweries never featured on the show before. Martin broke out two beers he is excited to share. These two Belgium breweries are very indemand at the moment. Bofkont Lazy Red Amber is a blend of 1, 2, and 3 year old lambic blended with Spanish plums. We love plums in lambic and they killed it here. Antidoot Aether Kina is a wild ale aged on cinchona bark for a year and then refermeneted in the bottle with a blackcurrant juice picked from their own garden. Cinchona bark is a natural source of quinine, which means we might not get malaria because we drank a lot of this.

Stefan has some more US beers to share this episode. More importantly, it's from the corner of the US he is from. Texas based Martin House Brewing has been leading the way on gose variants. From pickle beers to michelada sour beers, they are going to extremes. Salty Lady is the base gose, which is an easy drinking gose. They added chamoy, a salty, sweet, bitter, sour flavor combo, to the beer. The results are something wild. Ozark Brewing Co returns to the show with their annual release of BDCS 2023. We featured this beer a couple of years ago and thought it would be fun to check in with the latest version to see how it holds up.

We're expanding our horizons once again with more ciders. Domaine Duclos-Fourgeray Cidre Fermier Du Pays Bray Tradition is a funky, musty cider with loads of funky flavor. This is just how we like it. Domaine Duclos-Fourgeray is a french cidery but they created in the German style of apfelwein. Martin added the perfect companion to the cider with Hanssens Artisanaal Oude Gueuze 2016. Hanssens is a perfect example of a lambic producer that needs to wait to be enjoyed. Not our favorite fresh, give it 5 years and you've got some magic. This doesn't disappoint.

Stefan went on holiday to Portugal and brought back some beers. One from his brother who gifted him several beers from Arkansas. We're excited to try Natural State Brewing Maibock. It won Gold Medal in 2021 at the Great American Beer Festival. We get it. This beer slaps. It's 7.2% ABV but drinks really light. This is a chuggable beer. Catraio is a beer bar in Porto, Portugal. It's a really great place with lots of taps, bottles and cans. They celebrated their 9th year with a special beer brewed by Fermentage. Catraio 9.0 is an India Pale Lager made with oleo saccharum with red grapefruit and lime zests. Then it as hopped with Cascade, Mandarina Bavario and Perle hops and dry-hopped with Nelson Sauvin. Then end result is a hoppy lager with a slightly tart edge.

We don't normally go to the same place in the same year, let alone in the same summer. Something special happened and we couldn't pass up the opportunity to review a beer. 3 Fonteinen has decided to finally release their beers on tap. You know we love 3F beers and getting it by the glass is a huge bonus. Mikkeller Moriskan somehow got kegs. Might be the first in Sweden. Certainlly the first in the region. 3 Fonteinen Oude Kriekenlambik is full of sour cherries which gives it a tart cherry juice flavor. It's incredible. If you missed this and love gueuze, they have Oude Lambic 2019 on tap as well. We follow that up with Pomona Island Crimson & Clover 2023. This English barleywine was aged in an apricot brandy barrels. This is incredible and makes you wonder why more beers aren't aged on apricot brandy barrels.

We talked about going to some local dive bars in Malmö for a few years. We just happened to be in the neighborhood and stopped by one of the classic dive bars in Malmö. Gamle Nobes has been around for a long time and my how the times have changed. A few years ago it was the only place in Malmö that had indoor smoking. It was rundown and the patrons gave you a weird look if they didn't know you. Gentrification has come for this landmark location. It's still trapped in a 70's wonderland of design but the taps and the food are worth checking out. We grabbed a couple of beers and took a seat outside. Spaten Premiere Lager is a mass produced German lager but damn if it isn't a quality beer. Smooth, malty and just the right carbonation, it's what you want from a local watering hole. Gamla Nobes Bodega Nobes is brewed just for them by Czech brewery Pivovar Lobkowicz. It's light amber lager with a slight roasted malt finish.

Double saison episode in the middle of summer? Yes please! We love saison beers. They hit even better during the summer. Light, funky and super easy to drink, saison is a perfect summer beer. Hill farmstead Anna with Motueka is a farmhouse ale made with wildflower honey and dry-hopped with Motueka. We follow that up with a saison from France. Wilde Leeuw and Brasserie La Malpolon teamed up to create Saison Brett Rhubarabe. Northern France grows lots of rhubarb. Naturally it fits perfectly with a saison. Why aren't there more rhubarb saisons on the market?

Keeping the summer going, we head out to Ramen 2 Birru. Mikkeller's ramen joint makes great ramen. We've been eating here for a few years. There are two locations in Malmö. We are at the Möllanvängstorget location. We didn't try the ramen this time but feasted on beers instead. Apex is an IPA focused Swedish brewery that's been upping the game for a few years. Havoc Apparatus IPA is a 6.5% NEIPA. Sadly they don't mention the hops so mysteries abound. Fuerst Wiacek Yield is a companion beer to the APEX IPA. This IPA comes in at 5.5% ABV and is very easy to drink. We saw another beer on the menu that we couldn't pass up. Brewski Grandmother Gose is a mango, lime and habanero gose. Image a spicy margarita as a beer. It's a spice that builds over time and doesn't completely wreck the palate but comes close.

We're keeping it light and funky this summer and nothing brings out the fun like a cider and a lambic. Frukstereo Österlen 2020 is a dry cider made with apples from Sweden apple Mecca Österlen. It's a great location on Sweden's east coast with some of our best beaches. Dry and fruity, this cider makes us wonder why we don't review more ciders on the show. Metaphore Qvevri is a wild ale from Czech Republic. Qvevri is a ancent Georgian earthenware vessels that were used to make and age wine. Metaphore has taken this practice and used it to age a wild ale. The beer is aged for one year in a qvevri and buried in the ground with loads of Riesling grapes. Then it's aged on oak barrels for another year. With strong mineral notes blended with hints of Reisling, they really did something special here.

We're staying in the neighborhood and visited Scandwich. This is one of Malmö's best sandwich shops. But that's a bit a misnomer. The sandwiches are full meals. Grab and knive and fork because you're going to need to dig in to tackle these monsters. After years of developing a following, they were able to open their own restaurant and get a tap supplied by our friends at To Ol Brewing. This means they are always going to have some really good To Ol beers on tap. 30 Days Italian Pilsner is an Italian pilsner that only aged 30 days. This is because Italian style pilsners are not aged more than 4-5 weeks creating a lighter, more herbal beer compared to its Czech or Germany counterparts. This will be a killer summer beer. Shapes and Objects makes their second appearance on the show with Gorilla Juice. This is a collab with Duckpond Brewing. It's a fruited gose with banana, mango, and liquorice candy. You're enjoyment will depend on how much you enjoy banana and liquorice flavors. Fortunately we do.
