Fruit Beer | Four Brewers Podcast

Episode 256 – Tim recently took a trip to Iceland with his family and came back with some stories and, of course, Icelandic beers!

Located just south of the Arctic Circle, Iceland is a country of beauty, intrigue, and a blossoming beer culture. With prohibition having been fully lifted in 1989, Icelandic breweries are playing catch up, and doing a spectacular job of it.

One such brewery that has made its way to the states is Einstök, which surprisingly accounts for 60% of all alcohol exported from Iceland in 2017. Made with pure, natural Icelandic glacier water, styles from this brewery include several witbiers, a pale ale, toasted porter, and a few seasonal specialties.

Pictured: Tim in a beer bath with his feet show and him holding a beer.

Having recently returned from a week long adventure through Iceland, Tim discusses his adventures – including gas station hot dogs, a visit to the Einstök Brewer’s Lounger, and a trip to a beer spa – while we appropriately sample some of Einstök’s offerings.

BREW THE SHIT OUT OF IT.

As to be expected, we spend some time talking about Untappd and some of the badges that we’ve earned in the past, and also literally during this week’s episode. We get some insight on how the badge creation process works, Untappd’s user community involvement with new badges, and the story behind badge artwork.
