Love you guys, I think the Brett beers are a good foray…in balance it's great.

Great show, not a beer fan, but would like to try a few from Brooklyn.

You guys totally geeked it up this time. The geek intensity was huge. Great show.

QOTD: Big League Chew Beer. I'm sure you can make it work.

Too bad this wasn't out a couple of weeks ago. I see your beer can be found in Chicago. Bring it to MN 🙂

QOTD: How about a beer that tastes like a wine. A Nero d'Avola or maybe after a wine whose grape was bred by your own Cornell University – Corot Noir.

Totally geeked up, like 2 little kids, but with some monster knowledge.

Where is the LOVE button?!?!

Boy…do I love beer. This episode was mouth watering.

Yeah, the best place to get Guinness is out of the tap at the brewery.
It's been over 25 years and I still remember the yumminess.
The bottles without the “device” in them are extremely disappointing.
Give me a local Stout/Dark/Porter/Amber beer anytime.
Triple Rock in Berkeley's “Tree Frog” was quite good when I stopped by a few weeks ago.
Would love to try Brooklyn Brewery when they become widely available in CA.

Way cool show – Garrett is one of the BEST guests ever! Classic. And I usually dis you on the non-wine episodes, but this one was terrific.

QOTD: I've never had a Brooklyn Brewery beer so I cannot tell you what to make. However, I do enjoy good craft beers with great taste. My wife loves stouts and porters especially and I think she would love your Black Ops beer. As far as Bret goes, I have only experienced that in wine and it is okay in small doses but you can have too much pretty quickly in wine. I have no clue what that would be like in beer.

I have been a fan of Brooklyn for a very long time, but for the most part the IPA, Lager, Ale and Pils. The stuff everyone can get their hands on. As a Tennessee resident I may have to wait quite a while for “Locals” and allocated brews. What I have had access to for many years is Rogue and their seemingly endless lines of exotic flavors. One in particular that stood out was their “Smoke Beer”. In a world of beers (and wines) that have very similar flavor profiles, that one stood out. I love Brooklyn and would love to try their effort at “Smoke” Ale.

Amazing Show! Best guest ever? Garett is so awesome. So glad he's proud to give a nod to Milton Glaser. Loved Brooklyn Brewery before, love even it more now. Definitely wanting to see Garrett Oliver's cooking skills and check out the brewmaster's table.
QUOTD: Brooklyn Brewery TV – please?
if not, smoked beers are a bit lacking in brooklyn's lineup.

I love these beers! I live in Colorado and work for a distributor and we have a great wine book as well as the finest beer catalog including Russian River and Ommagang. I would sell my soul to sell these beers in Colorado!
QOTD-Brett and sours are amazing and I say go to town!!!

Oh dude, are you my long lost twin? Stone's IRS and Smoked Porter are among a few of my all-time favorites (along with Arrogant Bastard of course). Since I live in Texas and make frequent trips to New York, I can personally vouch for everything Brooklyn Brewery makes, especially the Local 1. Whenever you get the chance, you'll love them I'm sure.

Great episode – I need to get down to check out that brewery!

QOTD – Keep the Belgian Ale (think trappist) and German Wheat styles flowing… love those!

QOTD – It would be pretty cool to see some Lambic styles. I have never tried your beer, but the next time I am in the NY area or somewhere that I notice them on the shelf I will be picking a couple up.

As a side note, this episode inspired me to get into the home brewing after months of putting it off. So this Saturday I will be off to the local home brew supply store to stock up. Cheers!

Love beer and the topic should be featured more often! I am not a fan of Garrett's he comes off as arrogant to me and to my palate his beers are average at best. There are much better micro-brewed beers out there from the Pacific NW, Vermont and Wisconsin if you ask me.

This is one of the best episodes EVER!!! As was noted earlier – you guys are brothers by a different mother.

It is so enjoyable to have a guest as articulate, knowledgable, and deeply committed as Garrett is. I may even buy his book.

I will look for your beer here in Texas good sir. Have not known of it but I can assure you it will be on my radar now.

QOTD – may come back and answer after I have had the opportunity to be more knowledgeable myself.

Great show…more craft beer shows to keep things interesting!

GV – Nice to see a beer show thrown into the mix! Especially, Brooklyn Zoo Brew!

QOTD: Garrett, here's the deal, my partners and I have a lifestlye/apparrel company called Mr. Brownstone Industries! We are a PMA (positive mental attitude) group of individuals heavy into the ski/music/craft beer/outdoor/living life awesomely type of vibe and I think we can help each other out. We'd love to help promote Brooklyn Brewery in the New England area, with a focus in NH and VT. We are currently based out of Portmouth, NH. You might actually know some of our friends at Redhook, Smuttynose, and the Portsmouth Brewery! We'd be looking for very little in return, perhaps we could have a Brooklyn even at a local bar in NH and be able to promote ourselves as well. It's a win, win! Think about it…and in the meantime check out our website and follow us on twitter!

Great show…looks like your squeezing the juice out of life! I look forward to getting my hands on the Black Ops!

Well as Garrett said, Texas is a big market for them. I get them here, at the grocery store no less! Haven't tried (or recall seeing) the Local 2 though. As for Texas beers, of course there's St. Arnold, brewed right here in Houston (been there several times). I don't think they have much distribution outside of Texas though, not sure. They do a fantastic stout that you can only usually get at the brewery or at some local pubs, in season. There used to be Cellis in Austin, which is being brewed again I think, but not in Texas. That's about all I can think of… 🙁

Great show! I want to date Garrett. I'm sure my husband won't mind, as long as he gets some Brooklyn Brewery Beer out of it. 😉

Great show….I really enjoyed it. I've read The Brewmaster's Table and it really opened my eyes to great beer and food. Nice to here the shoutout to Brooklyn BCS. I had a chance to try it several months ago and it was awesome!

QOTD: Ship to AZ!

Best show in a looooooong time. Love the Brooklyn Brewery & visit it often since I am a born & bred NYC boy! Love to get my hands on a Special Op bottle.

QOTD: Stay away from the sour Lambic style. Won't go over well here in the US. Let Cantillon in Brussels do that stuff. I visit the mecca of beer aks Belgium once a year and tour the breweries. I would like the BB to tackle an abbey dubbel or triple. Dark & rich and full of flavor. I visited Maredsous & Orval so love traditional abbey style beers. How about a Brooklyn version with an Ommegang twist!

This show was awesome. I just started to get into WLTV and have been doing the home brewing thing for a couple of years, so this was a great episode to combine my interests and expand my knowledge. Would love it if you could mix in a beer tasting thing once in a while.

QOTD: I would steer clear of sour, I am just not sure how many of my beer drinking friends (including those who are into belgian styles of beer) would be into it. I almost certainly wouldn't like it though I have really enjoyed everything that I have tried out of your brewery in the past. I love the sound of a couple of the beers you talked about and tasted (the manhattan and black ops both sound great). Has Brooklyn done anything with vanilla flavors in the past? I have been thinking of brewing a vanilla bourbon porter recipe that I found and am looking for things to sample as models.

Had to comment for the shout out to New Glarus. Have a sixer of Spotted Cow in my fridge right now. One of the many great brewers around Wisconsin.
