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.

Since the departure of our good friend Matt, the Four Brewers has been but a mere threesome. Today, that changes as we are excited to announce a new fourth brewer, Tim Mather. Tim is the co-founder of the beer app Untappd and formerly the host of the Drinking Socially podcast. A novice home brewer, Tim brings with him years of experience with beer technology, data, and culture.

On this show, Tim shares with us two beers he picked up while road tripping through Utah and we discuss the strict alcohol laws of that state. We also check out some other beers from across the country including Sherwood, Old Man Hatten, and the elustrius KBS.
