The Crafty Boys / Episode 18 / The Hollow and the Redness

By shanebee -



We are kicking back with Big Rock Brewery's Hollow Tree Red Ale. It turns out, this is not your regular Big Rock. It was brewed in Vancouver, BC, using BC ingredients. It is quite the shift in the Big Rock arsenal. We dive in and soak ourselves in the Pacific Northwest waters and enjoy the heck out of this one.

This beer influenced us to talk about new movies from old properties. We are nervous but hopeful that these films and stories we grew up with don't get killed by money grabs. There is also some discussion about how fans are now in control (somewhat) and how they can influence the properties that do get made.

The Beer This Week

We enjoyed the hell out of this beer. It really became an episode love fest for Big Rock.

Wheat Are We Currantly Talking About | Episode 204 | Beer Review

This week, we're experiencing the the Black Currant Wheat Ale brewed lovingly by Phillips Brewing & Malting Co. It is a fruity yet tart beer and it has one of the best illustrations of black currants we've ever seen. Watch us as we drink our way through this dark-ish beer. Dave showed off his ability to talk about radler beer (and, really, is a radler a beer?) and a bear crept quietly from his armoire and ate him alive.

Chocolate Beer & Ageless Video Games | Episode 5 | Beer Review

Our fifth adventure means we talk about chocolate and video games. How could this conversation go wrong? We touch on some older video games like Scorched Earth which is an epic game. Also, we're getting used to doing this and we hope we're making it awesome. Thanks for the positive feedback we've received! Dave tried to explain the magic of video games to his bear admirers but the claws sank into his hands too quickly and he lost too many games. He was eaten as the reward.

The Kettle Sour of Redness | Episode 188 | Beer Review

This week we had a little trouble finding the beer (even when living across the street from the brewery) so we had to settle on Dave giving us the goods. Red Truck Brewing is a player in the market with some decent beers -- but this one... who knows. It wasn't available as much as it should be! Dave was working hard to hide in the shadows. He has become a bear ninja. Or, wait, is that a thing? Do bears act like ninjas or can you prevent them from attacking you when you're the ninja. Only Dave knows. ♥ Subscribe https://goo.gl/zfKUTb ♥ __Episodes__ Next Episode ► https://youtu.be/Av1jAazBV0Q Previous ► https://youtu.be/fi81Eqsh-MA Reviews Playlist ► https://goo.gl/YrsrCP __The Beer__ Red Truck Brewing Tart Your Engines Black Raspberry Kettle Sour https://redtruckbeer.com/ __About The Show__ The Crafty Boys is a fun project for a bunch of friends to sit around, share a beer, and talk about whatever is going on in the beer industry... and other things.
