The Crafty Boys Beer Review Podcast

This week we're heading into the interior of British Columbia to check out Fernie Brewing Company. They increased our beer speeds with the new single-speed Belgian Style Blonde Ale. We sought it out and it made our thirst for riding deep into the mountain valleys grow... and then we drank some and it subsided. Hey, we like beer and biking but not at the same time. Dave had been eaten by bears just before showtime and we had to build a new robot version of him for the show. Pretty neat, huh?

Alan and Shane take on the triple fruity threat of the Russell Brewing Triple Berry Milkshake IPA. It is a tasty and bold beverage but is overpowered by the fruit and the IPA is lost in the mix. A hazy beer with a lot going for it but it really needs more of a hop punch in the face! Wouldn't we all like to be punched in the face with some hops? Dave was somewhere else this week but who knows. Perhaps it was that letter we sent out to his bear friends to let them know where he was. Hmmmm. (Dave was wandering the streets of Portland, Oregon and visited several breweries down in that region of the world. He said it was amazing. But did he bring any back for us? NO. That guy, I tell ya...)

This week Lock is in town and we're hitting up the Old Speckled Hen by Morland Brewery. This is one of those craft beers bought up in the frenzy of brewery purchases and... well, life is what we drink of it. It is called an ale but it is ruby in colour and quite tasty. It has been around the block for some time and has a proven record. Dave was hiding from some invaders and he managed to give them the slip by throwing real hens at them. ♥ Subscribe https://goo.gl/zfKUTb ♥

Riot Brewing is in danger of closing! Do you know what this means? If we can't support local brewmasters and their craft beer -- we're going to be forced into drinking malt liquor! YES! This is a problem! But seriously, we hope Riot Brewing Co. survives! Please support them in any way you can. There is a rumour that something is coming where we regular people can purchase a stake in their brewery. Unsure how true this is but we're hoping to join! https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/b-c-storm-leads-to-local-brewery-s-fastest-selling-beer-1.4973808 #saveriot #lifesariot ♥ Subscribe https://goo.gl/zfKUTb ♥ __Episodes__ Next Episode ► Next Week!

Howe Sound Brewing sends out a blueberry explosion with their You're My Boy Blue Blueberry Wheat Ale. We are going to make this one work for the claim it can make us far cooler than we are right now. Dave was here. Dave was in one piece. Dave is Dave.

We're delving deep into the haze as we find out as much as we can about the Category 12 Juicy Data Hazy IPA. It is a sweet and citrus-y beer that made us happy. Dave was able to find the beer this week only because the bears allowed him through the liquor store doorway. We're not sure why but suspicious of all bear activity near any beer locations.

This excellent lemon-lime sour beer was thunk up by the wizards at Lighthouse Brewing Co. The Lemon Line Sour Ale is low in booze but has a heart that will tear your taste buds out and beat them to sour-y amazement. Dave was able to avoid bear-related death this week as he used the lemons in the beer to mask his scent with lemon-y goodness. Bears don't like being cleaned with lemons so they missed him entirely.
