Episode 76 - The Wee Heavy Show
We bring our buddy Kris McKenzie back in Episode 76 and talk about Scotch Ales. We cover the 2015 BJCP style guidelines for the Strong British Wee Heavy style, as well as have live tasting notes with the Founders Dirty Bastard Scotch Ale. We also talk about an article from the Brewers Association on coconut beers as well as answer a listener question asking for entry level IPAs to try. And find out how you can enter to win a HOPCLOTH shirt. We encourage you to prepare for our listener tasting notes segment in this episode by picking up a bottle of the Founders Dirty Bastard Scotch Ale and tasting along with us.
We are proud to partner with HOPCLOTH apparel and invite you to visit their site at https://www.hopcloth.com to find great craft beer themed clothing that remind people “Craft beer is not alcoholism...it’s a hobby!” And let them know we sent you.
