  • A beer show! Thank you! Keep ’em coming. Loved the tequila show also, bring on scotch!

  • I hope I can stop drooling so I don’t ruin my computer before I finish watching, that is a great lineup of beers.

  • Wow, that’s a nice dainty hand on Michelle. 😉 Hey Gary, we have to look at Mott’s mug every once in a while, why not the “new” camera woman? Is Michelle single? 😉 j/k…

    I have a bottle of the Speedway Stout at home that I may open tonight… This was an interesting episode, even though I’m really not “into” beer (though I do appreciate a good one every once in a while).

    Definitely Root Beer is the way to go… I crave a good root beer!

    QOTD: Does it have to be a beer I’m sharing with the person living or dead? If so, perhaps just my buddy Mike.. the only guy I still talk to from high school, he’s reviewed like 4000 beers on ratebeer.com, so he definitely is fun to talk to about beer.

  • Love to share a beer again with my Dad but can’t happen now. My two sons are beer heads. They go to tastings

    Wow, I’ve been watching for a few months now, but this is my first time commenting and it’s all because of the amazing QOTD

    First off, I love the show and it has been encouraging me to expand my palate in every area (most notably in the area of coffee, actually). Technically I’m not 21 yet, so as far as wine (and beer, in this episode) goes I’m just prepping my palate for the next few months.

    QOTD: I’ve always thought that writers are some of the most interesting people to talk to, so if I base my decision on that I’d have to say that I’d either choose W. Somerset Maugham (early to mid 20th century British author) or Ernest Hemmingway would be who I’d choose.

    Keep up the good work Gary!

  • I will go with beer over root beer any day of the week bro!

  • Great show guys, Beer TV rules.

    QOTD: I think Napoleon would prefer a good cognac, so I’d go with Ben Franklin. He’d probably have some French ladies hanging around too.

    Not a beer drinker (can’t handle the calories) but interesting show nonetheless.

    QOTD: I had to think about this for a while. This is probably wierd and generational but I really think that I would have liked to share a beer with the actor Jimmy Stewart. He always came accross as very genuine and approachable. A lot like you, Gary.

  • Jimmy

    Great show! One of my favorites, this beer guy should get his own show!

  • Two things: 1) Awesome show. The beer shows are always a great change of pace. 2) A double IPA does not mean that it’s fermented twice. It means that there are more hops and more barley used in the production which leads to a bigger hop profile and more alcohol.

    QOTD: Good question. I’d probably have to say Richie Sexson. 🙂 I think he needs one after this season.

    With regards to the double IPA, both your guest and Jay aren’t (completely) correct. The definition Jay gives is what was traditionally meant by the term “Imperial” in Europe (so it’d be an Imperial IPA in this case). Two rounds of fermentation is a Belgian trick present in their “Dubbel.” The use of the term “double” in the US in beer names is sort of a shot in the dark as to what it means, as it hasn’t really been used consistently to mean any single thing. Conveniently, both double-fermentation and doubling the hop or grain bill of a beer will result in a big-ass brew if done with skill, therefore, for the consumer, double really just means “big,” “bold” or “booya.”

    QOTD: Probably Maurice Merleau-Ponty, though my good friend Adam would be a close second.

    Beer? Well, occasionally it’s ok. I like that you use separate glasses. Dump and rise makes me sad! smile.

    QOTD: at the beach, just at dusk, with Sarah Palin.

    You got to try Oregon beer….Rouge Brewery “dead guy ale” and Deschutes Brewery “hop trip ale” (seasonal) or the Mirror Pond, share a beer with anyone, that appreciates good beer, no piss water

    Gary –

    Need to find some Speedway Stout! Saw on their webpage that they actually add coffee to the brew. Very interesting.

    Would love to see a show on ROOT BEER! With all the references to it, I don’t think there’s ever been an episode devoted to it!

    QOTD: Tough one . . . geez, this is harder than I thought it would be . . . would want it to be fun, not so serious . . . climbing into the time machine and travelling 16 years into the future and I’m having a beer with my two sons . . .
