Thanks to Stefan's brother shipping a big box of beers to Sweden. We dive into that fine selection of craft ales with two interesting selections. We try a little brewery in Oklahoma called Elk Valley Brewing Company. Blackberry Bruin is a jammy blackberry brown ale made in the Flemish oude bruin style. Mathias gets to try one of his most anticipated beers Stone Brewing W00t Stout. It's an interesting collection of beers.

We're really lucky to live in the area we live in. We got a great bunch of releases from Systembolaget this episode. When you have one brewery you love, what could be better than when they team up with another brewery? First we have Poppels and Brewski teaming up do to a passionfruit DIPA called Passion DIPA. That's followed by Remmarlöv and Malmö Brewing creating a coffee and cocoa imperial stout called The Collaboration Breakfast Stout.

Adrian joins the show while Mathias trims his beard. His loss is our gain. We both happened to be in Copenhagen recently and picked some outstanding beers. Old Nation Brewing exploded on the scene last week with two releases, Boss Tweed and M-43. For the show, we break out the Boss Tweed, a hazy, smooth, balanced dipa. Adrian drops a classic on the show with Heady Topper from The Alchemist. We reviewed Focal Banger back on episode 36.

I think he's stalking us. Adrian is joining us again for a pre-bottle share episode. We start with Mikkeller Rozpusta, a berliner weiss with white grapes (or green grapes if you're Swedish) and Cloudwater DDH Pale Simcoe Ekuanot, a delicious ipa with lots of fruitiness. We finally answer the question, "Can you cellar age a Ten-Fidy?" Plus, lots of great conversation.

Do you have a beer cellar? We do. This episode we talk about cellaring stouts and dark beers. How long do you cellar a stout? What are the best conditions? Do different stouts allow for different cellaring lengths? We all answer all those questions. Plus, we each reach into our cellars and pull our of own bottles of Warpigs Smoldering Holes. Mathias brings out Smoldering Holes Rare Eagle Barrel Aged Stout and Stefan presents Smolding Holes Bourbon Barrel Aged Vanilla Stout.

We've been dying to have him on show for months. It finally happened and we're really excited to have Nerdbrewing's Hannes Gruber on the show. He talks about being highest rated brewery in Sweden, his recent release POJO (available this week in bars all over Malmö), his brewing process and let us try some of his "alpha" beers. We had a fun time talking with Hannes and we're hoping to have him as a future contestant on Game of Beers.

If you know about Mikkeller then you know about his Evil Twin brother. They rarely appear together. One lives in Sweden, one in New York. Boxbeers.com imported a lot of Evil Twin beers lately so we jumped on the chance to give them a try. Evil Twin rarely disappoints and this episode they offer two interesting beers. I Always Felt Closer to IPAs than to People, a beautiful hazy IPA and Imperial Doughnut Break, a version of the Imperial Biscotti Break with added doughnuts.

New beer day at Systembolaget brings an interesting collaboration between Brekeriet and Transient Artisan Ales. Ever heard of a style called lichtenhainer? Yeah, neither had we. So we're pretty excited to try a new beer style. We follow it up with a DIPA classic, Piperworks Brewing Co. Ninja vs. Unicorn, that we pickedup from boxbeers.com. Sadly, Mathias couldn't be here this week so we're joined by our third member Adrian!

Founders Canadian Breakfast Stout has finally come to Sweden. It's doing a roadshow of Bishops Arms pubs before it finally debuts in Systembolaget. We got to Bishops Arm Savoy early to be sure not to miss it. It was servered in a special barrel aged Founders snifter glass. Of course, every episode features two beer reviews so we also grabbed a black IPA from Vibrant Forest Brewery called Metropolis. And it's our first bar episode in a long time. It's all coming together.

Mathias couldn't be here for this episode, which is a shame. Adrian and Stefan step out to Beer Ditch and try what will probably be one of the best IPA's we review this year. It's a collaboration between  Left Handed Giant, Magic Rock and DEYA called Compulsory Fun. We follow that up with Rocket Brewing Sour Escape with buckthorn. We don't know what a buckthorn is or what is should taste like but this is one tasty escape to sour town.
