Episode 081 – Uinta Anglers Pale Ale, Stoudt’s Fat Dog Stout

Dave Martorana — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 17:14:42 +0000

NOTE: Be sure to stick around after the credits for some blooper fun!

Yet again, we find ourselves somehow intertwined with Uinta Brewing Company out of Utah, who have yet to disappoint us. This time we try out their Anglers Pale Ale, a gentle ale that’s not too hoppy. Once again, it gets good scores.

Next we tackle Stoudt’s Fat Dog from one of Johnny’s favorite breweries. The Fat Dog is an American Imperial Stout, or an Imperial Oatmeal Stout, etc. The big bottle with the champagne cork definitely caused us some issues, but after we got passed that, we got to try a fantastic beer that also scored nice and high!

Be sure to stick around after the credits to watch us struggle with the cork

The outtakes, on their own, in case you don’t want to watch all the way to the end

Episode 041 – Otter Creek Winter Ale, Regenboog t’Smisje IPA Plus

johnnyb — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 23:21:28 +0000

We start off with Otter Creek’s Winter Ale, which is infused with raspberries. We’ve had inconsistent luck with fruit-infused beer – could this one be different? Then we try out a small-batch brew from the minute Regenboog brewery in Belgium, their t’Smisje IPA+, which may really be a Strong Belgian Pale Ale in disguise!

Episode 027 – Southern Tier’s Phin and Matt’s Extraordinary Ale, Hook and Ladder’s Backdraft Brown Ale

Dave Martorana — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 03:45:01 +0000

Two American ales are tried, including a somewhat unconvincing “Phin & Matt’s Extraordinary Ale” American Ale from Southern Tier Brewing, and a winner of a Brown Ale in Hook and Ladder’s “Backdraft Brown Ale.”

Episode 022 – Flying Dog – Episode 1 of 2

Dave Martorana — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 17:30:19 +0000

Flying Dog was kind enough to provide us with four of their ales to try on Two Guys on Beer. We split them up, talking about two this episode, and the other two in the next episode to come.

We got to try out two ales from the Canis Major line of beers. The first was the Gonzo Imperial Porter, their tribute to Hunter S. Thompson, who was good friends with the founder and artist over at Flying Dog. Normally heavily malty, they infuse it with a hop kick.

Secondly we look at their Double Dog Double Pale Ale. A mouthful to say – even better to drink. Turns out to be a beer for a hop-head with sophistication.

Check out our thoughts:

Next time we’ll be talking about the other two ales in the Canis Major series. Keep an eye out for our review!
