This batch of malted goodness mixed up by our merry band of beer-guzzling connoisseurs will leave you with a satisfying experience and no hoppy aftertaste. The hope is we help you identify what you like and avoid what you don't while we do a little sampling, researching, laughing, and art critiquing. That's right, beer art. It's a thing. So while you're out jogging or flying or heading to work, give us a listen and find out what's good and why it's good...or why it leaves a little to be desired. That way you'll know how to reward yourself after you get done doing whatever it is you just did. So, go ahead. Pick up one of the releases below and enjoy. It's on the house.

Glenn looks surprised as Bob gives him the evil eye as they work on new material should the creators of Portlandia decide to return for another season....oh and they differ somewhat dramatically on their opinions of the beers presented before them by the fine folks at Rogue Hall.
