Hoppy Craftsmen - Arizona Craft Beer Podcast

(NSFW) In this episode Ed and Chris pound through a few local and national Oktoberfest style beers to find Das Beste Bier. Ranging from previous official style Märzen to the current Fest Bier and everything in-between. The guys struggle to peal the labels that Trevor's put on their cans. And like always, to pronounce anything correctly. Chris gets to hear all about Ed's trip to Munich and how great it was. So yeah Ed becomes that guy. We compare our list to other websites lists, to see who is Das Beste.

(NSFW) Ed, Chris, and Nate get to sit down and share a beer with the Director AZ Craft Brewers Guild Rob Fullmer on this episode of Road Sodas. Since its been so long since they have chatted. They catch up on what has been happening in the world of Arizona craft beer, what festivals look like currently, what beers we are drinking, and what the world looks like now as we slowly roll back into things. Then they get into the new the breaking news about AZ Strong Beerfest 2022. Enjoi!

Road Sodas: An alcoholic beverage (usually beer or perhaps malt liquor) consumed inside a moving vehicle. This beverage can be consumed by passenger, driver, or both. Road Sodasare illegal in most states due toopen containerlaws. Still, they are widely enjoyed as evidenced by all the beer canslittering rural road sides.

(NSFW) In this episode Chris and Ed are joined by patron supporter and fellow geek/nerd Zach Dominguez. For the first time in a long time the Hoppy Craftsmen go venturing out into the wild and land in one of Mesa's newest hidden gems. The Silver Key Lounge! Where they have all the things we enjoy. Namely craft beer and a grip ton of board games. We get to sit down with one of the owners and mastermind, Greg McCleary. We get to hear how living in the Northwest during the craft beer explosion's and his love for board games helped fuel the idea of The Silver Key Lounge. In true HCPC fashion we put Greg and Zach through the "not so rapid" rapid round and generally just geek it up. Enjoi.

Our Guest's Information:

The Silver Key Lounge - https://thesilverkeylounge.com/

We are a board game/craft beer and wine lounge opening in Mesa, Arizona. We will serve 16 craft beers on draft along with over 20 other craft canned/bottled beers; our new cocktails menu; an extensive wine list consisting of local and international varietals to choose from along with our 4 house wines on tap; a great selection of craft soda and coffee for the late night players.

(NSFW) This week Ed and Chris put their lexicon of descriptors to the test in a game Ed likes to call, Bloated Not Buzzed. As they blindly pound through twelve beers that are either low calorie or are considered non-alcoholic. The beers themselves run the gambit of local, regional, and national brands. As it is with most things in life, this seemed like a good idea at the time. But, it truly felt like another round of punishment for the Hoppy Craftsmen. So sit back and listen as Ed and Chris struggle with trying to guess which beer is which. Bonus: play along with them, the list of beers are as follows:

Firestone Walker Flyjack 96 calories 5 carbs 4% abv Hazy IPA
Four Peaks Guilt Lifter 99 CAL 3.4% ABV SCottish Style Light Ale
Michelob Ultra 95 CAL 4.2% ABV Superior Light Beer
Omission Brewing Ultimate Light Golden Ale 99 CAL Crafted to remove gluten 3 CARBS 4.2% ABV
Coors Edge Non-Alcoholic 41 CAL 8 CARBS
Four Peaks Desert Day Drinker 4.3 ABV
Lagunitas Daytime Day IPA 3 CARBS 98 CAL 4% ABV
Michelob Ultra Pure Gold Organic Light Lager USDA Organic seal 2.5 CARBS 85 CAL 3.8% ABV
HUSS Low Lo HAZY IPA 4% ABV 109 CAL
Blue Moon Light Sky Citrus Wheat 4% ABV 95 CAL 3.6 CARBS
Natural Light Naturdays Light Lager w/ Natural Flavor (Strawberry Lemonade) 132 CAL 12 CARBS 4.2% ABV
White Claw Hard Seltzer Ruby Grapefruit 100 CAL 5% ABV 2 CARBS

Correct Guesses: (Ed 6 Chris 3)

(NSFW) The week Chris and Ed get rebuked by Stone Brewing's Punishment Ale. Since, the releases of the show have been slim to say the least. They (Mostly Chris) felt the need to inflict some pain on themselves as punishment for this. And what better way then to throw back some 2015 Punishment Ale from Stone Brewing. They talk about a new hip beer from one of the oldest craft breweries in the US. More odd beer flavors that might be pushing the limits of craft beer. They demystify the meaning of the rebuilding of the AZ Craft Brewers Guild emails they have been getting. And try a few good beers as well.

Next, Instagram keeps promoting some strange investment opportunity, the guys dig deeper into what that is. For once Ed and Chris are fan boy'n out to some Wren House brews, while Nate is stuck drinking the #1 Rated IPA in the US. It's a horrible world we know. Which, Ed and Chris see as one of the signs of the coming Craft Beer Apocalypse. This and more on episode 7 of Road Sodas.

(NSFW) The guys catch on some more local news. Probably some other national news, and possibly some regional news as well. I'm sure there is some mention of an odd beer that has been produced. The notable Rowley Farmhouse is mentioned since their head brewer Wes has took a job some where else. Chris tries and old favor tire that turns out to be not so good anymore. Ed and Nate enjoy real craft beers and enjoy Chris' misfortune.

(NSFW) The guys are back with this weeks road soda's episode. They talk about what shouldn't be in a beer. Including two newly released beers, one of them is a mustard beer. Sorry for all the puking sounds in the background, they couldn't help themselves. They go over the recent announcement of Stone Brewing's current CEO leaving and what that means for the nations 9th largest "craft" brewery. In more local news Goldwater Brewing found that a foreign brewery is stealing their designs. The guys debate about the line between theft and parody. And how the think that Goldwater should get back at the other brewery. Lastly, the new glass ware has been ordered!

(NSFW) Road Sodas Return! After a little hiatus the guys are back. Ed recently braved leaving his house for a road trip to California. He hit up multiple breweries, and was able to see how they are handling social distancing compared to Arizona. He was lucky enough to be staying close to Russian River and was able to bring back for the rest of the Hoppy Craftsmen. They talk about the GABF going virtual this year and what that means. They debate the old Blind Pig is better than Pliny, and cover some favorite brews from recent weeks.
