Great Show, love beer esp. the stuff that is not found at your local Mega Super Mart. We are lucky here in Rochester to have a couple of great taphouses that carry a vast selection. Anything that is a cask beer is worth a try.

QOTD – I am very happy sharing a pint with anyone that will have a good chat, but if I could pick someone would have to say Simon Pegg.

Terrific — but will you ever cover the hard stuff? I’d love to get your take on various whiskeys, etc.

Cool show, good guest!
QOTD – I would have a pint of British midland ale with Eric Clapton (when he was in Cream).

Great show…QOTD: If I could share a beer with anyone alive or dead I would want to share a beer with my grandfather’s father on my mother’s side. If I could share a glass of wine with anyone it would be Maynard James Keenan.

Good show, Scottish ale next time!
QOTD: Penn & Teller

As a wine lover I am getting more into good craft beers and really enjoyed this show. QOTD – I would have beer with my Dad – due to health issues he has not been able to drink beer for many years and I know he misses it.

I’ve been lurking for about a year now. You really brought the Thunder in this episode, Brett too. I won’t go into how much Thunder I thought it brought but real top notch stuff Gary, favourite episode ever.

I really hope the wine community will one day give beer its due. However I hope to never spend more then 50 bones a bottle for the stuff.

QOTD: My Brother.

QOTD : My best man, saw him last week after many years. Was great to see him and have some brews.

I.P.A. – we never relly got the story. India (not indian) Pale Ale was originally brewed in the UK, with extra hops, and more alcohol, to help it to keep, on the long journeys to the colonies in India, hence the name. THe extra hops of course is responsible for the bittersweet symphony they so often deliver. MY favourite type of ber.

Great show guys!

QOTD: I would definitely have a beer with my grandfather, my mother’s father, who I never had the chance to know, as he died in 1971, seven years before I was born. I heard through stories that he was a great person.

Louis Pasteur. I have often used his famous quote “Chance favors the prepeared mind” I’d like to see what he had to say about beer in the 21st century.

another great show. I just had my first traditional-style lambic and I loved it. i don’t know much about beer, but I thought IPA had to do with the amount of hops put into the beer (as the high amount of hops would help to preserve beers that were shipped by boat to India).
qotd: without thinking for too long, I’ll say Dennis Kucinich.

I’d share my beer with… anyone who’d like a chat!
New people are great! ; )

Nice one Gary!

Love to see you doing beer on the show. I definately like to mix it up. Trained my pal on beer 1st then scotch and now wine thanks to the thunder show…

QOTD: Carl Sagan

As a Philly original living in Seattle, I miss the Yuengling (technically not a craft beer, but a historic experience none the less) and visits to my favorite Vermont Brewery ‘Long Trail Brewing’ (their Blackberry Wheat beer IS summer).

..and you won’t find me w/ any COWBOYS fans this Monday night – GO BIRDS!

QOTD – Ice cold beer with my wife on a hot summer evening. I know Gary, it hides the taste and I wouldn’t do it will a really fine beer. But, that first sip in the backyard with the love of my life is pretty great.

Is Michele like 9′ tall?

Loved the show, I’m definitely more of a Beer guy than a Wine guy but I’m watching your show, trying to learn more. Nice to have a show about Beer and learn things I didn’t know.

QOTD: First thought in my head was my Grandpa, because I miss him, and he always enjoyed a quality made beer.

QOTD: my close family, but I guess that doesn’t count because I can in fact do that (and do do it)

For those of you in the tri-state area, the upcoming week is Craft Beer Week. Should be some good times (http://www.nycbeerweek.com/events/event_details.asp?eventID=1)

Great episode, I have never tried a craft beer but after your last beer episode and this one I’ll keep my eye out for one.

QOTD – I’d enjoy a beer with Arnold Palmer at the 19th hole.

I’d love to be able to tell Charles Darwin about continental drift and watch his brain take off.

This was your best beer show. I fall somewhere between the Bud Lite crowd and the beer snobs. I had no interest in some of those fruit flavored beers you’ve done in the past. Here you do things like stout and IPA, things that a beer drinker might actually want to try.

QOTD: Of course my late father. He and I shared many a bottle of wine. His beer drinking days were mostly before I reached 21. But even though the answer is clear, it’s fun to think of names of people you’d like to spend some time and have some beers with. Here are some: Edward O. Wilson, Lao Tzu, Benjamin Franklin, Archimedes, Jimmy Durante and Louis Armstrong.

Great picks, good job, Bret. As a wine pro, and a cyclist, I slake my thirst on beer – slugging a big stein of wine ain’t a very good program… Like Alesmith, have liked Cantillon, love Avery.
QOTD – I have one annual ritual/birthday wish, with an early summer birthday. That is to have a good beer and a hamburger with my Mom and Dad, whom I love very much. It is their love which has made my entire life possible, and I celebrate family and love on that day for as long as God will allow.

With all the Oktoberfests about to start springing up, this a great topic to cover.

The good thing about the craft beers, to me, is that they’re not made to slam down and are almost impossible to do so given their structure and body.
