Wheat is one of the oldest grains ever brewed, so you’d think people would get it right. Of course, it helps if you know what you’re doing when you drink it. (That’s foreshadowing there.) In this episode we spin and crack open an Allagash White and dive into amber waves of grain!

Dark beer can be friendly beer. This week, Mark and John explore the dark side of lagers, a style with a very old pedigree. Will Indeed Brewing Company’s Loretta’s Dark Lager live up to that history – or did the boys get in their own way on this one?

The Belgians love their beer - and we do too! In this episode we take on the pink elephants with Huyghe Brewing's Delirium Tremens. But wait. It's in a can! Could it possibly make a difference? Will Mark relive past Belgian memories, or will his hope be squashed like an inattentive zookeeper?
