In Episode 237, we're tasting a homebrew clone, debating conspiracy theories, and diving into the controversial world of craft beer marketing!
The "What's on Tap" segment features a special experiment: LCL Geek's homebrewed "Barnfind" farmhouse ale—a clone of the highly-regarded New Glarus Spotted Cow! We compare the clone to the original to see if LCL Geek nailed the flavor profile. Plus, Doc sips a smooth White Peach Cider, while Rudeboy Kyle embraces the low-budget life with a "shutdown series" classic: Natural Ice.
But the flavor journey doesn't stop there! Howard Blues brings back Pan's Mushroom Jerky, this time in Zesty Thai, sparking a heated—and hilarious—debate with Doc over the authenticity of its "organic Thai seasoning" and the use of cayenne pepper.
Finally, we sink our teeth into a New York Times critique that calls for craft beer to ditch the wacky labels and the IPA "arms race." Does a silly name like "Purple Monkey Dishwasher" sell beer, or is it killing the industry? The crew is split!
