The beers they try on the show feature flavors you wouldn’t usually see from a beer in the midwest. The first beer they dive into is the CoCoNut Porter from Maui Brewing and it comes in at 5.7% ABV. This time of year in the midwest you are more likely to see pumpkin porter but a coconut porter is a great way to bring the fall season in too. The CoCoNut Porter came in a canned six pack sampler, something neither Brad or Ken had seen before. The next Hawaiian beer the two of them try is the Wailua Wheat from Kona Brewing. What makes this beer extra unique is that it was brewed with passion fruit. A big thanks to the Two Beer Queers for providing us with the beers featured. Download the Podcast (230.4 MB).

Both beers they sample and review in episode 51 have some unusual ingredients you don’t usually see in beer. The first beer the three of them try is the ginger pale ale from Trade Route Brewing. Trade Route Brewing used be called Laughing Buddha, so if you have a bottle, it may say Trade Route or Laughing Buddha, don’t worry it’s the same beer. As you can guess from the name the ginger pale ale is brewed with ginger and it comes in with an ABV of 5.0%. They follow that up with the Sah’tea which is the latest bottle release from Dogfish Head. Both Brad and Ken were extremely excited to try this one and were happy it lived up to the hype. The Sah’tea is brewed with juniper berries foraged directly from the Finnish country-side and comes in at 9.0% ABV. Download the Podcast (700.2 MB). Click here to view the embedded video.

When Brad and Ken first got there the first beer they went for was the Metropolitan Flywheel, it seemed like a perfect refreshing way to start of the evening. The plan was to interview a few brewers and see what was happening in the craft beer world.
