The livestream is now also a podcast! Join Jason, Jordan, and Brian as they talk homebrewing with professionals across the Michigan craft beer industry (and sometimes a little out of state!) The show has a heavy emphasis on homebrewing and brewing beer/mead/cider/seltzer in general. We're passionate about the hobby of homebrewing and want everyone to be as successful as they can be. We started this show during quarantine in attempt to satiate our desire to talk about brewing with people while club meetings all went to virtual or were cancelled all together. Sometimes we stray off topic, sometimes the audio isn't great, sometimes we drink a little too much... But it's what we like to do in real life and so we decided to just do it live instead and see if anyone wanted to join in, which people have! Podcasts will appear within 48 hours of our live show ending. Catch our live shows most Mondays at 7:30pm EST. We stream to Youtube, Facebook, and Twitch!

FIXED - Previous episode 98 was blank. Sorry!
Better Nate than Lever! (IYKYK)
It's been a while! Join us for a post MHF show where we'll dig into our thoughts about the 2023 Michigan Homebrew Festival, or as we like to call it, "Beer Camp".
Spoilers: it was awesome!

Have you ever licked a Lichtenhainer? Can you even pronounce Piwo Grodziskie? Is Gose even historical anymore? Have you ever even had a good Sahti?
We literally rolled a die for our topic this week and historical beer is it! Join us as we talk about tasting, brewing, and maybe even a little history on some of the beer styles of yore.
Cheers!

But really!
Though not talked about nearly as much as yeast strains, fermentation temps, hop varieties, the packaging of your beer (and mead and wine and cider) is arguably one of the most important steps in ensuring you have a drinkable end product. Join us as we talk about kegging, bottling, oxygen, filtering, and more!
Cheers!

It's been a while to say the least! Sorry it's been so long, but we've missed everyone and the stream so it's time to get back at it!
Join us as we discuss Brian's recent experiences taking the BJCP tasting exam as well as what's been going on in Michigan homebrewing this last month, and some info about events happening here in the state a few more months going forward!
Looking forward to the stream!

If you've been following along, back in Episode 90 we talked about how we wanted to rein in our focus back to what we really love, homebrewing. As part of that focus we really wanted to sit and hang out with some other (way more amazing) content creators.
Well, our first of 2023 is here!
Join us as we hang out with Matt Jagger of Jaggers Brewing Co. We'll be talking about his channel, homebrewing, competitions, the Master Homebrewer Program and probably a bunch of totally other irrelevant but awesome brewing related stuff.

If you've never heard of the Master Homebrewer Program (MHP) you're in for an absolute treat! Competitive homebrewing is one of the many niches in our hobby, and MHP is taking it one step further to build a community around it.
Join us as we talk to some of the current MHP board and learn what it's all about.
Cheers!

Resolution #1 - Make Brian figure out his mic. Sorry about all of the mic issues lately, we'll get it nailed down for 91. One of the many issues of doing a livestream show...
Anyway! Join us as we discuss plans for 2023, both personally in the hobby and with the show! Not so many changes coming for us in 2023 as there are "tweaks" to get things going more smoothly. Can't wait to see what the year brings!
Cheers!

There's cereal mashing and then there's CEREAL MASHING. Come hang out while we talk about making beer with actual cereal, and just generally catching up with everyone.
Cheers!

Its that time of year again where we hang out, drink seltzer, and open our stream to any of our friends or past guests that want to drop in and chill for a bit.
Grab a six pack or three of your favorite beverage and come enjoy some pre-Thanksgiving festivities with us!
(Brian has since fixed his mic, sorry for the audio issues!)
