Without any spoilers, if you've missed previous episode (s16 ep5) go check that out. On this episode, Bob and Doug continue their never-ending Stout Hunt. They start asking themselves: what if a magical stout doesn't exist?

A cry for help: if you, as a listener, know a stout that might be magical, please send it over or at least let our beer guys know about it.

On this week's episode:

• O'so Brewing Company – Peanut Butter Soul-ution Imperial Stout from Plover, Wisconsin

Cheers!

While they welcome their new assistant Ashlie to the team, Bob and Doug try and evaluate an unexpectedly good beer. They also explain the procedure when they find a "this might be magic" beer. Is this week's beer one of those? Listen to the episode and find out.

Pro tip: If Bob and Doug start drinking a beer and immediately stop to talk about the beer they're drinking, means something interesting is going on.

Featured on this episode:

• Taxman Brewing Company - Qualified (Belgian Quadrupel) from Bargersville, Indiana

Cheers!

Bob and Doug invite bold brewmasters to send them their beer for evaluation. Pour your beer and catch on the latest situation developments with the beer guys. While enjoying this week's beer, they talk about music and music industry nowadays.

Update on Ashley, their former assistant: in case you've missed the story, Ashley helped her boyfriend steal the beer from "the beer cave", so they had to let her go. They finally found an intern who will help them with the podcast. New intern's name is Ashlie, working remotely from Philippines so she can't steal the beer. Smart move.

On this episode:

• Kern River Brewing – Just Outstanding IPA from Kernville, California

Cheers!

Bob and Doug are continuing the good old Stout Hunt! They are still searching for the stout that says "bro, I'm a stout…just shut up and drink me". Can they find a stout that passes "This is interesting" on the Slooijer's scale? While on the Stout Hunt they talk movies and share some news.

* Special note to a listener called Feavs: hopefully we've improved with the last episode where we've talked more about the beer grading scale we use - Slooijer's Scale.

Beer of the week:

• Founder's Brewing Co. - Imperial Stout from Grand Rapids, Michigan

Cheers!

Bob and Doug continue to review beer and talk about the world. In a funny way, they share a story of how they became official beer commissioners instead of just being two guys drinking beer in the basement. They're surely not these Bob and Doug. Also, they attempt to explain why they've changed the format of the show by doing only one beer per episode from now on.

This week's beer:

• Pizza Port Brewing Company - Chronic Amber Ale from Carlsbad, California

Bob & Doug are back for season 16 bringing a cooler full of beer to the party. While enjoying this week's beer, they talk about reformatting the show, the pandemic, and they remind us they're still looking for an assistant. Also, they reeducate us on Slooijer Scale, so our listeners could also evaluate beers from their home.

On this week's episode we bring to you:

• Smog City Brewing - Coffee Porter from Torrance, California

Cheers!

Now, that their assistant Ashley is no longer within the organization, Bob and Doug's hands are full. However, they managed to save some time for a never-ending Stout Hunt, as well as their new assistant hunt. At attempt #9, is this Nitro Coffee Milk Stout finally the magical Stout they've been looking for, or is it a complete fail? Find out!
