Editor’s note: this last paragraph will just remain as-is for future posts until this lockdown is over.

We hope you’re safe. We know this sucks right now. We miss our friends and family, socializing, and even going for a run without having to wear a mask, but this is temporary and staying at home as much as possible, while also keeping our distance from others in public, is something we must all do. That being said, we live in a great time in history where we have a robust internet that allows us all to stay in contact, see each other’s faces, and even get together once a week for a virtual happy hour.

We’ll be recording episodes once a week from here out, which is actually pretty cool for those who normally can’t make it to our typical monthly recording sessions. We’ll be having guests on the show, trying new beers, and continuing to keep doing our thing the best we can. Thanks for sticking with us. We’ll get through this.

Now, on with the show!

BREW THE SHIT OUT OF IT.
WASH YOUR HANDS.
WEAR A MASK.
DON’T BE AN ASSHOLE.

[S4/E5] Pizza Port, Port Brewing, Trillium, and Noble Ale Works

Season 4, Episode 5 – This week, we’re going full blown IPA.

This week on the show, we are drinking a massive amount of IPA. Not only are we drinking IPA from Pizza Port Brewing Company, Port Brewing Company, and Noble Ale Works, we’re drinking some IPA whales from the legendary New England IPA whale farm, Trillium Brewing Company. That’s right folks! We’ve got some juice on the show this week and a mini IPA showdown.

So, here’s what happened. We were thinking of ideas for a show and it dawned on us that Port Brewing Company recently released some of their well-known IPA in cans. Since Pizza Port Brewing Company has been releasing their beers in cans for quite a while now, we thought, “hey! why not try them side-by-side to see which beers are best?” And now, here we are!

A lot of folks tend to get confused with the Port Brewing/Pizza Port/Lost Abbey brand of beers. Just to keep things simple, all of the breweries are owned by the same people. But just because they’re owned by the same people, doesn’t mean that they’re the same brewery. Port Brewing Company and The Lost Abbey brew out of the same brewhouse, while Pizza Port Brewing Company is actually a brewery that makes beers that were originally formulated by many of the small Pizza Port brewpubs in the San Diego area. Still confused? It’s ok. We get into it a little deeper during the show.

After the showdown (and a refreshing dive into the 4B Mailbag), we wrap up with two juice bombs from Trillium Brewing Company, and Noble Ale Works’ latest New England-inspired IPA, 24K Juice.
