Maybe it’s the cooler weather, but this time of year seems perfect for cellar diving. Higher alcohol beers that have been gently sleeping in the cellar slowly begin to come out of hibernation after waiting for the first signs of winter to appear. Mmm! Roasty! Toasty! Chocolatey! I’m getting warm just thinking about it…

That’s right, folks, we’re diving into our cellars. It’s a ritual at this point. I mean, we’re not just letting these beers collect dust in our closets, right?! They’ve got to be opened at some point, RIGHT?! Yeah, right…

This week we’re going cellar diving.

Season 3, Episode 41 – This week, we’re drinking Great American Beer Festival 2016 medal-winning brews!

Fresh off the The 4B Flight and fresh off the plane from the Great American Beer Festival (just Matt, that is) we’re back with another full-length episode of Four Brewers and we’re drinking as many GABF medal-winning beers as we could get our hands on.

GABF 2016 Winners! [Shot with iPhone 7 Plus, 56mm] — GABF 2016 Winners!

We’ve gushed about the Great American Beer Festival in previous episodes (2014, 2015), so we won’t get into the event itself too much in this post, but suffice it to say, it’s definitely one of the biggest and best beer festivals in the world. Thousands of eager beer drinkers descend upon The Mile High City of Denver, Colorado for three days of craft beer tasting and celebration. If ever a beer event were to appear on a beer drinker’s bucket list of events, GABF would be at the top of that list.

Matt Becker Wearing His Bronze Medal from GABF

There is one thing that made this year’s Great American Beer Festival stand out from previous years for the Four Brewers. Our very own Matt Becker, brewer at Packinghouse Brewing Company in Riverside, California brought home his very first medal from GABF—a bronze for his Irish-style Rad Ale (see what I did there?), Riley’s Irish Red. It was a proud moment for us, watching Matt walk onto the stage to accept his medal from Mr. Charlie Papazian. We’re super-proud of him! Congratulations, Matt and Packinghouse! Riverside REPRESENT!
