17 - Drinking a re-discovered 1800s beer: Cronk! (Cronk 1.0 vs. Cronk 2.0)

This week on Domestic Pints ONLY, we are going back in time to explore a forgotten drink from the 19th century, which was recently discovered and produced for modern day audiences: Cronk (apocryphally known as Dr. Cronk's Compound Sarsaparilla Beer). We chat about the history and background of the drink before discussing the modern day revivals, courtesy of Cold Garden Brewing Company. First we try out CRONK 1.0 and then CRONK 2.0, a slightly modernized version. Worth nothing that you can actually order this drink to be delivered anywhere in Canada!
