It's been a minute ...

The guys have not abandoned you, loyal listeners! Russell & Micah are back with an episode that was recorded at the end of May (side note: we may need to fire our editor).

There's a beer review (Kinslahger Brewing's Gold Wing Pilsner), talk of birding, golden wing warblers, Russell went to BUG (Micah was sick), killer bee brewed beer (How many killer bees does it take to brew beer?), Micah quizes Russell on beer slang (boss pour), and much more!

It's been a minute. The boys are back with an extra long hour-and-a-half episode to make up for the hiatus.

Russell and Micah brought suprise/mystery beers to review - reveal to one another during the podcast recording. Russell brought Maplewood Simplicity is Bliss. Micah brought Werk Force Mable.

And, while drinking a bonus beer (Off Color's Crispy Beer for Pizza), the guys get silly with beer news. Guinness Myths, Hot Guinness instead of morning coffee ... this is not a Ghostbusters Podcast ... TV beer brands, can art intellectual property, the difference between New Hampshire and Vermont ... combining states ... this is not a geography podcast ... etc.

Come and get it!

Micah and Russell review two beers: Wry Expression (a rye stout collab between Art History Brewing & the Women of Binny's) and Onward (a New England IPA and the very last Lab Beer from Exit Strategy Brewing).

The 4E Podcast is going to the Festival of Wood and Barrel Aged Beer (FoBAB), which takes place on Nov. 3 and 4, 2023. The boys preview the event, what they're looking forward to seeing and all the new cool stuff that's happening for this year's event.

The guys talk about Exit Strategy's coming closure and how much Catherine and Chris' brewery meant to us.

As for beer news, there's talk about the birth of beer, drinking with a bald eagle (and other animals), plus Russell tells stories about things he ingested during his college years.

Stay 'til the end, where Russell serenades Exit Strategy.

If you're going to FoBAB, come find us - we'd love to drink with you!
