There comes a time in every podcaster’s career where scheduling conflicts, natural disasters, car troubles, family issues, or even sickness get in the way of producing content. What’s a podcaster to do? Skip a week? Play a re-run? Or, how about power through and get the job done. We here at Four Brewers always choose the latter, no matter what.

Due to the scheduling conflicts that often arise between four beer-drinking dudes with lives of their own outside of their podcast, Greg and Matt couldn’t make it for what would normally be a three-episode recording session. Rather than skip a week, we’re keeping our promise to never miss an episode of Four Brewers. Jason and John decided to get together and have some light fun drinking whatever they could scrounge up at the local liquee (sic) store.

Session 50 Beers!
Session 50 Beers!

The beers on this week’s episode range from light and hoppy to sour and barrel-aged. John picked out some beers from Gerrards Market in Redlands, California, with a little help from the almighty Mo, Gerrards’ Beer Cave dweller and expert.

So, worry not, friends. Rest assured that there will always be a new episode of you’re favorite beer podcast ever week, as well as a new episode of Four Brewers, even if it means being a host or two light.

We’ll be there for you [/Friends theme song].

[S2/E51] Citra Syndrome

Season 2, Episode 51 – This week we’re doing kind of a grab bag episode with beers from The Good Beer Company, Side Project Brewing, El Segundo Brewing Company, and Kern River Brewing Company.

Hey, y’all. It’s a holiday week. I’m gonna level with you. I’m in the mood to holiday. I need to get my holiday (and Star Wars: The Force Awakens) on. Writing about this week’s Four Brewers episode just doesn’t seem to flow properly. There’s some fun stuff happening this week. Oh, and did I mention Star Wars? Yeah. Star Wars.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens
Star Wars: The Force Awakens

This week’s show is a little random. We’ve got some hoppy stuff, some sour stuff, and some funky stuff, all of which is very good stuff, but let’s face it: they’re no match for a holiday week that also involves Star Wars: The Force Awakens, amirite?

The Good Beer Company is a fairly new brewery from the downtown Santa Ana area of California. We’re drinking three of their sour beers this week, all provided by Mr. Nagel, their biggest fanboy. But is Greg a Star Wars fanboy? To be honest, I really don’t know. Oh, and in case you didn’t hear, Star Wars: The Force Awakens opened last Friday, and it was awesome.

All in all, the beers from The Good Beer Company were in fact pretty damn good, just like Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Star Wars.

Next up is a whale of sorts for us, Side Project Brewing’s Saison du Blé (Batch 4). Matt brought this one, and it’s right up our collective alleys, much like Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

We end the show with two IPAs, Citra from Kern River Brewing, and Broken Skull from El Segundo Brewing Company, made in collaboration with Steve Austin. Yes, that Steve Austin. The “What?!” and “Hell Yeah” guy. He was a badass wrestler back in the day and it turns out that he loves craft beer. But, I didn’t see Steve Austin in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Is Steve Austin a Star Wars fan? HELL YEAH, AND THAT’S THE BOTTOM LINE.

…and Star Wars.
