We’re back! After 12 cold months, warm months, then cold months again, we’re back once again with a couple fun Christmas beers and a ton of fun. Although… we also talk about the heinous skullduggery most foul in the Chippewa Falls region this past year. Join us for a beery gripe-fest with beers and Christmas cheer!

Christmas beers are a special treat. This year, Mark and John unwrap not one, but two special treats. Deschutes Jubelale and Great Lakes’ Cookie Exchange Milk Stout. Be warned. Not everyone can get what they want this year.

This time on DD, we go where we rarely venture – into the seas of the sours. Despite Mark’s better judgment, we crack open a Rodenbach Alexander, a special brand of sour. Will Mark still remain peevish/waspish/cantankerous about this style of beer?

IPAs are more than just the purview of man-buns and Birkenstock sandals crowd. In fact, they have a long, sorted history of shipwrecks, colonialism, and flippin' the bird to Coors. This week, Mark and John explore India Pale Ales with Bell's Two Hearted. It will be a ride!

Pilsners and pale ales share a common flavor thread, but their histories are woven from different cloth. This time, Mark and John open Dale’s Pale Ale from Oskar Blues Brewery while discussing the sorted history of pilsners.
