Episode 29: Redbeard's Pirates

🏴‍☠️ Ahoy, mateys! Welcome to Episode 29 of the Three Hamster Boys Podcast! 🍺 This time, we're setting sail into the world of pirate media while tasting three beers from Redbeard Brewing Company in Staunton, Virginia. We were pleasantly surprised by Redbeard's selection and picked three dark, rich beers that were right up our alley—with no IPA in sight! 🍻 Our Redbeard Brewing lineup: Watson — an English-style barley wine aged in rye whiskey barrels, bringing rich malt, caramel, and whiskey-like flavors. 221B Baker Brown — a classic brown ale with smooth, easy-drinking English pub character. Gizmo — a rye Schwarzbier that brings dark color, malt, roasted notes, and a surprisingly crisp finish. 🏴‍☠️ Then we dive into pirate media! The Three Hamster Boys discuss everything from classic family-friendly pirate movies to video games, anime, musicals, and nostalgic MMOs. The conversation includes: ⚓ Blackbeard's Ghost 🏝️ Sea of Thieves 🎭 The Pirates of Penzance 🦜 Muppet Treasure Island 🔫 Black Lagoon ⚔️ Pirate101 🏴‍☠️ Pirates of the Caribbean ☠️ One Piece 🌊 Our Flag Means Death Along the way, we also share pirate trivia, talk about the romanticized image of pirates, discuss historical pirates that rarely get the spotlight, and—because this is the Three Hamster Boys—we somehow work submarines, British submarine pubs, and "submarine pirates" into the conversation. And before we sail off into the sunset, we reveal which Redbeard beers each of us preferred. Jeff went with the Watson, while Nick and Alexander both gravitated toward the Gizmo. If you've visited Redbeard Brewing, let us know which beer is your favorite!
