201 - Beer Pressure: The Great Crap Beer Taste Test

The 200th celebration isn't over yet! In this special follow-up episode of The Barn Philosopher, Ridge challenges Shelby and Rita to a blind tasting of six bargain beers to see if they can actually tell one from another. The mission sounds simple... until the first sip. As the guesses get wilder, one thing becomes clear: Rita has a much better nose for beer than Shelby. Her explanation? After smelling beer on Shelby often enough over the years, she's apparently developed an unexpected talent for identifying what he's drinking. The three compare flavors, make questionable predictions, and discover that even inexpensive beer has more personality than they expected. Whether you're a beer enthusiast or someone who simply enjoys watching friends confidently be wrong, there's plenty of laughter along the way. Join us as we continue celebrating our 200th episode with one more challenge, one more excuse to spend time together, and six beers that probably won't be winning any international awards. If you enjoy these taste-test episodes, let us know what we should put to the test next. Follow the show, leave a rating, and thanks for being part of the first 200 episodes of The Barn Philosopher. Here's to the next 200... preferably with a better beer in hand.
